Get Marwood & I

Not too shabby for an Alan, Daphne!

That's a new one on me Albert. I have two examples of a stamped #41 in the Fantastic Files, but no #51 until now. eBlag seems to be a bit glitchy lately doesn't it - the first image seems to be compressed in every listing now. I hope that isn't going to continue. Plus the second page of listings seems to replicate the first page in certain searches. Someone needs to turn it off and on again I suppose.... www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125897769959 https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html

OK, so I chose the wrong word in salubrious. I must remember to give every word and every thought 100% consideration before posting from now on

Whereas I was rubbing shoulders with Vince, Tall Barry and a dodgy bloke called Glynn in the infinitely less salubrious Rodney's in Barking: That whole parade has gone now I think. Somewhere out there, lost in all of space and time, are me and my brother, excitedly picking up UK Weeklies with massive 2p inked prices on them, laughing and joking all the way home.

Remember this lot, Rich? That shop was one of your haunts wasn't it?

Wayne King would've been better

Hello Steelthunder - welcome to the thread I wasn't ignoring you - your post wasn't visible when I posted Barbie above (being only your second one, it was likely hidden until CGC Mike got around to approving it). Here is the current Marvel APV issue summary: https://boards.cgccomics.com/blogs/entry/4916-marvel-australian-price-variants/ For your X-Men title there, the confirmed issue range is 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 2-26, 49-58, making 39 APVs in total: You're a third of the way to the set!

Indeed. If it was a made up name, you'd have thought they'd have gone for something a bit less obvious, wouldn't you. Like 'Luther Cobblepot'.

Another nine! We only need Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen and Comet for the set now

That list is donkey's years old Kev. Current numbers here: https://boards.cgccomics.com/blogs/entry/4901-dell-comics-uk-price-variants/ "Pete" "Yes John?" "The disguise" "What's that?" "Aint foolin no one" "Oh"

Don't worry, we can all indemnify with that.

Ha! Well played, Richmond

"That's right. It's like a small circle with a one and some dashes in it. Say again? Top right, yes.... About half an inch or so. Say again? Yes, yes I know there's already a 15c price but I want to know what the funny circle thing is. What do you mean, 'you're the detective'? I'm just trying to find out if you know what the Goddam circle thing with the one and the dash is doing on my Goddam comic cover!"

I posted this the other week, tried to amend it, made a total hash of it, so deleted it. Here it is again! Conceived in America, printed in Canada, priced and sold in Australia, purchased in the United Kingdom of Englandville She's a Barbie girl, in her Barbie wor-or-orld. She's fantastic, her comic's bagged in plastic

Some of these Dell UKPVs are extremely hard to find copies of and, despite my five year search, this below is the only evidence I have found to date that Tom & Jerry #189 exists in a pencificated state: Until today of course, when someone finally put a full cover copy up on eBlag. Hooray! Here it is: Look at the fing state of it! The search for a decent file image - let alone a purchasable worthy copy - goes on!

Conceived in the US of A, printed and distributed in Orstralier, shipped to, stamped and sold in Blighty You'd have to be Richie Rich to afford all the travelling.....

I bought this Dell in the week, just for the fun of it, because it has an obliterator / unbranded 10d stamp combination: How cool is that. Good looking ghost. I must get around to making sense of all the Dell stamped Tee and Pees in my Dell Stamped Tee and Pee folder at some point, and to then post some drivel about it. I've made quite a few notes about them, but can't be arsed to turn them into something worth reading. Is that wrong of me? Probably. It's an affliction I'm struggling to shake off, currently. Wish me luck with it. Or not, depending on your quality viewpoint.

Morning When I started this thread almost three years ago Rudolph was one of the first books I gathered as a candidate for 'earliest stamped DC' and the copy I purchased below has remained the only example I've seen up until this week: Here's a second copy, currently on eBore, stamped a nine to my eight (so I still have the 'earliest' if my eight was the first eight boat and not the second. Or third / nineteenth ): It's a good example of how they might have stacked them back in the day - we debated this a bit at some point in the thread - and you can clearly see the stamp smudges where it was placed on top of another still wet stamped book: Only two copies seen in three years. Well, by me anyway. All good fun

You're welcome, Mijael. I love the redrawn Horrific. Excellent job. And the added hair on the Kiss of Death chap. No wonder the girl's speechless

There's one here on eBay UK, Marmat: Marvel Presents Spiderman Annual And another: Spider-Man Annual 1983 and Undated, Vintage Hardback unclipped And here is a former sale: Spiderman Annual Uk I'm not an expert, but I am familiar with the cover, so it can't be too scarce. I always thought that was Buster Bloodvessel on the cover there, lower right, incidentally.

Oo-er. Good spot, Hulk. Someone did well there. And, of course, someone didn't. An odd journey when you think about it. Someone goes to the trouble of getting it graded and then it somehow finds its way to MCS with a low BIN despite the fairly widespread evidence now of its value. First person to see it, who understands it, buys it (it wasn't me, alas). Maybe it's an error and they forgot to add the extra zero(s).....
