I never conversed with Jimbo but saw his many posts. My prayers to Jimbo.

I think it's pretty difficult building a high grade set. I've been collecting planet stories for a decade or so and stopped after about a dozen issues.

I'm curious to know what a complete high grade set will go for today.

If anything it should have picked back up again w Neal Adam's passing and the upcoming HBO Max GL series

Makes sense but there are less discretionary funds available nowadays

Great looking book! Hope you get a great price.

It's a Night Nurse appreciation thread now! 

 

Thanks! It's still on clink. I hope I do well.

what grade is it?  

Haha. Sorry for the pic. It is a 9.4 and actually it is a Boston pedigree but forgot to note it during the submission paperwork 

I'm sad to say I'm finally letting this gem go (on clink). I've owned this for a few decades and it's truly one of the rare bronze keys in this grade.

GL76 has hit rock bottom. I recall when 9.4s would sell for 10K easy and 9.6s sold for like 30K several years back...

Last night a 9.6 sold for under $7400 on ComicLink

I'm wondering if the market slowing down?

Thanks for the replies! Grading pulps is so tough as I usually don't have another copy to compare - nor the years of experience in examining pulps. Unless it's a common manufacturer defect (not that I can confirm that either), I'm thinking to knock it down at least half a grade (e.g. from fine to vg/fine).  Understanding pulps are quite rare compare to comics, am I being too harsh?

I totally agreed. At the end of the day, it's all about the grade. I owned a White Mountain Captain America SA graded CGC 8.0 which I used as a book end for my books.

Give me a VF pulp with bright colors and white pages any day over a Pedigree with a lower grade.

I noticed a few of my pulps are warped (not flat). What causes this and how does this affect the grade?

Would you guys consider the Robinson collection to be a pedigree? The Weird Tales set is absolutely stunning - possibly the best in existence.

At the right price, they are highly collectible

I see 41 CGC9.8s.

My bad. I looked up Eternals 3

There are now 259 9.8's. it is indeed a common book. What's a reasonable price for this book?

7.5

Slab it if you got it for cheap so to protect your investment for the future. 

4.0

Solid 9.6

Solid 9.4. Maybe 9.6 if all the moons align.

I say 7.0
