One hour remaining! Thank you to everyone who looked and bid and commented.

If anyone really wants one specific copy and wants me to forward the information to the eventual buyer, please let me know. I will pass the information along.

I wish that I didn't sell that NM TOS 39 for $120 in 1982.

The month that the Avengers 196 came out was the month I graduated from High School. I had the entire summer to hang out before college. I had a part-time job, but was able to spend time at Queen City Comics here in Buffalo. Emil is still running the place all of these years later. That was a fun summer of grabbing the best copies that I could find in all of the piles of new editions.

This one also came back from CGC via Joey (I love the Newsstand copies):

Thank you. Joey did some amazing work on three of those!!

And thank you to Rich Henn for the Sienkiewicz and Moench signings!

Here are the back covers of the Hulk 5 and Fantastic Four 11 Treasury Editions for those interested in seeing them:

Note the kid with the wheelbarrow and a pile of comics with Action #1 on top.

Thank you for noticing this. We will then have to have an earlier closing time. Since I don't want to interfere with anyone's Super Bowl plans, the Auction will end tomorrow at 3 pm EST. I will update the title and initial posts.

Ron

Can you assign a grade to them.

Warren,

That is tough. I would say most are VF-NM (Some NM+). Some have their defects (that I have tried to highlight), others are just copies that have been held aside for 40+ years (these ones I have never opened except to check a publication date). I'm sure there are better copies, but these are pretty nice.

Ron

Moon Knight #1 SS Bill Sienkiewicz and Doug Moench

Beautiful copies.

Thank you. I have had them for 40+ years and now it's time to pass them along. I had forgotten how amazing the back covers are. The backboards block the primary colors and incredible classic figures. This thread is different for me .... I want people to look, not necessarily buy.

Moved to the Gold/Silver/Bronze Sales thread:

Bradd was a great buyer. Prompt payment and very easy to communicate with. I would buy or sell without any worries.

That is it for now. Any questions, please let me know. If nothing else, this has given me the opportunity to look at some of the amazing back covers that we tend to forget about.

Note the CB crease on the Hulk upper right (sorry, hard not to )

This copy also has some discoloration issues. Still looks nice in person.

I will switch to smaller images for now. Please let me know if you want any specific images. With the Howard the Duck copies... I will pick out the best 5.

This is one issue with scuffing on the back cover.
