    Are trades and hardcover reprints "collectible?"

    "Batman from the 30's to the 70's" (1971) is my HOLY GRAIL of reprints!  It was my favorite book when I was a young kid.  A few years back I lucked out and found a beautiful copy, dust jacket near flawless with no dents/bends, bone white pages.  It is impossible to find a decent copy of this book today, I searched for years before I lucked out and found this copy.  Is it a valuable book?  I do not know, but to me it is priceless! :)

    Your first run?

    Uncanny X-Men & Fantastic Four runs were what I was mainly interested in back in the early/mid 80's.  And also the New Teen Titans.  Sadly, I sold off those runs many years ago, but...over the past several years I have amassed (again) a very high grade (mostly NM) run of FF #141-354 plus Annuals and other related tie-ins for that time period.  My main focus on recollecting the FF were the Byrne issues and those are all in solid NM and I now have 2 sets of FF #209-221, 232-293...actually 3 sets total with #'s 250-293.  i decided not to collect any further back from #141 as it is too costly in high grades...& so sad because I used to own so many key Kirby issues back in the day. :(
