9x12 Tony Moy Spider-Man

There were some nice Archie covers that I wanted to bid on in the last auction, but I couldn't get my account set up fast enough to bid 
I do always peak to see what's on offer there now though.

Awesome!!! 
That button is super cool. 
Thanks for sharing. 

Yes take yes.. Come to dover. 

Hero to zero

Well, we have standards….

Hero to zero

Lots of frustration, patience, resignation, perseverance, and negotiation finally got the seller to move enough to strike a deal between all parties.

How Did it all shake out? 

got my Joe Sinnott signed copy's today from @Readcomix thanks  they have been read and they have now been put in nice new fresh bags and boards

I’ve been able to acquire some of Joe Sinnott’s personal file copies of his Atlas work. Most of these were comps he received. In the 50’s, Joe went down to NYC from the Hudson Valley to get his assignments at the Atlas offices. He was allowed to take from the newsstand that Atlas ran in the lobby of their office building up to three copies of anything he worked on.
Before his passing, with the help of a friend, he and his son identified the undercopies and sold them off. Joe then signed and retained the remaining nicest copy of each. (Joe signed on the margin of the first page of each story he worked on in a book; some are signed multiple times.) After his passing, his family began to release them. These are a few of mine; not all will be keepers but I am still deciding. (I believe the PCH books were not comps as they are not as high-grade as the others. Joe did fill in gaps in his archives with lower-grade back issue purchases if he did not receive comps.)

Boy, that took forever! Finally worked it out financially for all parties the only way possible, so was able to complete this deal and finally acquire a beloved Peanuts strip. Thanks for all your help and advice along the way. It really was eye opening and informative! Here is a link to the piece on my CAF gallery.

Jackpot Comics #5 CGC 5.0, OW Pages- Taken Down  (Only 21 Blue Label copies on census).
Great WW2 cover with Hitler, Tojo and Mussolini. 1st Reggie and Mr. Weatherbee.

Because prices are also affected by demand.  Demand increases if the cover is classic or appealing or if by a popular creator - think J S Campbell or Schomburg as examples.  Demand increases if the writing or art is more popular - think BA Uncanny X-men as an example.  Demand increases if something memorable happened like the first appearance or the death of a character - how can we not understand that there's only one first appearance of Spider-man and that it's more important than his 200th appearance.
