Marvel Comics 1 1939 October Copy HA.com
Vintage_Paper replied to zen514's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
I always have a laugh when an October Marvel Comics 1 shows up. It reminds me how Metropolis Comics would go on and on about comic collectors don't distinguish between multiple printings of Golden Age comic book keys and they are all worth the same as all that's important is it's the first issue. That was until they had an October Marvel Comics 1 they were selling. They did a complete 180 and went on an on about how important and more valuable the first printing is. -
If you have an ebay seller account you go to selling and then click the research tab and it gives you free access to Terapeak. I agree with the other responder about mycomicshop.com as a possible way to sell the book on consignment for you. Send them a query asking about their interest of selling it on consignment. There's a stand up board member named Conan who works for them who is very helpful. You can try to message him on the boards here about it for his advice. Let us know what you end up deciding what to do. Have a great Thanksgiving.

After reading the first reply you got I checked on ebay sold items for this comic to get you some more data points. I quickly noticed everything sold was not the exclusive variant. Terapeak shows 2 sales in the past two years for the book on Ebay: March 23, 2022 auction sale for $375.00 with free shipping. 13 bids. April 6, 2022 fixed price sale for $400.00 with free shipping. Don't know if they are real sales. But If I were you I would spend time investigating the book more before selling it.

Something doesn't add up.
Vintage_Paper replied to Antillia Island's topic in Newbie Comic Collecting Questions
What part of Asia do you live? I used to work all over the Asia-Pacific area for several years. Have you sold anything to these people who tell you they value these books so high? What people say is vastly different from what people do when they have to hand over large sums of their money. You just bought one for $20 that you said is worth thousands. See what these folks are willing to pay you for it. -
Hoarding big books - any extreme examples?

Vintage_Paper replied to Robot Man's topic in Comics General
I was looking forward to getting Star Wars - but my shop was out of them. Also missed out on getting the TMNT, Archie, Smurfs. I did get a Dogman and the Garbage Pail kids one though. -

I just saw this. Would have been nice to meet some local people with similar interests. Anyone take any photos? -
What are the Scarcest Comic Books of the 1950s?
Vintage_Paper replied to bronze johnny's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
Did a Double Action 1 really appear? Or are you thinking of the Ashcan copy of Double Action Comics 1 that was listed in Overstreet that came back to market awhile back? -
Not sure why you posted this one. They look like two completely different books to me.

Crazy Run up on price than crash and burn. And I mean BURN!

Golden Age: high grade Marvel Comics #1 was tanking with every sale for several years before someone took them off the market. Atomic Age: high grade Mad #1 tanked as more Gaines copies were graded. -
Lobtrosity/cstojano, I do not know what you mean to ship flat? Are you saying USPS First Class Large Rate envelope? (This is the flat I'm most used to) I ship vintage paper items to people - some First Class Large Envelope some First Class Package Rate - but the paper items are much smaller than an uncut animation cel. So I'm at a loss on how to ship the safely. Thanks for the heads up on only to sell in the cooler months of the year! I don't know what masonite is. I think I might have used some old foamcore, someone gave me, while mailing paper items - but only used a single board when mailing those. Where does someone buy these type of things does the local Staples or Office Max have them? Or do I have to find some type of artist store. Also how thick of cardboard should I use? Do they make polybags for cells? Not sure what to place them in before packaging them up. comicwhiz, What do you use as a buffer between the cell and drawing? cstajano/fsumavilla, My goal of this post so I can figure out how to ship the animation art and what my costs are to do it. I'm not ready to sell the art just yet and since the warmer months are here at the earliest time would be at the end of the year.

How to ship Animation Art? I've been thinking about selling some animation art (mostly untrimmed cels with their matching drawings) on Ebay or other venues, but I have no idea how to safely ship the art. If anyone has experience in shipping this type of art, I would be very interested how it should be done. Also, are there other online venues to sell animation art other than Ebay? Thank you

1st appearance question...Felix the Cat
Vintage_Paper replied to Calidream'n's topic in Comics General
Yes, it is from England published in 1924. There were also a different annual for the following years: 1925, 1926, 1927, 1928, and 1929. They reprint the Sunday strips from the previous year and they add four color plates (which one or more commonly missing from surviving copies) -

If you are talking about post 1933 US comic books. I believe the book is New Funnies 66 (If memory serves me right) (Its worth noting, Overstreet states Funnies 64 has Felix the Cat but I have verified with five people with that comic that Felix does not appear anywhere) There are several earlier platinum age books with Felix the Cat in them. -

Robot Man your book was published in 1931 (if it is indeed the first print of that specific book) But all printings of this book I've seen are in panel form. So I would love to see what is contained in yours. -

Felix Annual (published in the UK in 1924) = First World-Wide Appearance. It is the book pictured as Beige's profile pic. I had located that copy for him.
