  1. Thanks Sean! I just got my 3 cases from Filter81... that's 900! So I was wondering about the actual numbers, as I know he had more to sell. I was checking out the census on them; there are 4 9.9's. They go for an average of a couple of hundred. I don't knopw if I have any and I'm pretty sure I don't. I opened one box, the other 2 will remain sealed. They still have the original distributor's bands around the box. Who knows? Maybe in 20 years they'll be worth $20 a pop! If not, I still think it's kinda cool to have a couple of never before opened cases from 1969. Thanks for the reply! John
  2. Kudos out to Filter81 for some sweet Heroes, INC. Presents Cannon books! I don't care if it was a dud... I think it's cool to own 3 sealed cases! Well, 2 now... BTW - Does anyone know the story on this book??? It states in numerous places that there were only 1800 or so of these printed. It was never distributed and 900 were stolen. I know Adam was selling quite a few cases of these... what's the deal??? Historians??? John
  3. Kudos to QUALITYCOMIX for a couple of sweet books. Brent is truly an awesome guy to deal with! Class act
  4. Nice book I am still searching for a sweet HG copy for myself
  5. wdb23... very, VERY nice room! It is great to see all these different rooms. I am currently working on the second one in my house. I am going to try to eliminate one of my storage units. I am thinking of going with storage shelves that are half as high as the others. That way I can display more things on the walls Again, some awesome rooms here folks! Keep 'em coming... John
  6. Kudos to TheGreatSatan for a quickly shipped and great priced slab! John
  7. Thanks Bob! I am glad you liked them Thanks for the quick payment! John
  8. MAJOR KUDOS to BULLSEYE! Received a package today and was thrilled when opened. Not only were the books better than described, there were a slew of freebies and all in mylar!!! Speedy shipping, great packaging... a definite Thanks! John
  9. Love the horror collection! Very cool... John Why don't I see these though???
  10. Kudos to sd2416 for a quickly shipped box of well priced goodies! Thanks! John
  11. Kudos to CHAINBALL for taking some Shazam #1's off my hands... you will not be disappointed! Thanks Brian! John
  12. Kudos to carcrawfordfan for contacting me privately and apologizing for our little thread hassle. There was no need to apologize, but he is a good guy for doing so! No hard feelings and the race to pull the trigger will continue Thanks again Matt John
  13. No GPA info on it... the only sale listed is for the 9.6: (9.6) - 643.00 - - 643.00 - Jul 2005 National P 1 1971 1 Have fun!!! It's the only one in census... should attract a nice premium! John
  14. The shelving units I use are adjustable. I have the first shelf a good 7 inches off the floor. They are also housed on the second floor. At the storage units, I have the boxes on laminated wood which sits on cinder blocks... again, at least 6 inches off the ground. They too, are on the second floor of the complex. Call me crazy, but I feel a little safer with the books above ground! I have asked this before, but will do again; Does anyone know of an outfit such as "CIA" in Canada??? Insurance schedules run quite a bit on the books and a policy such as one CIA offers would be ideal. If there isn't such an agency, does anyone know of a single woman living in the US who'd want to get hitched to comic geek from Canada??? Photos provided upon request John
  15. Scrooge, truly a great room! Looks like a great place to sit amongst friends and talk comics After seeing some of these rooms, I feel mine is inadequate . Although, I did want something clean and manageable, I think I accomplished that. In order to do a "showcase" style room, I'd have to knock down a wall and make some major changes to the house! That won't be happening anytime soon... I still have my guest room to work on; maybe that will house all of my statues, figures and art. Great to see the thread pinned! I have seen some great stuff in this thread and am anxious to see more over time John
  16. Thanks! It's pining away for more company, though...say for a CGC 8.0 #6,8 or 10? I think that belongs in the WTB thread! Joking! Those custom cabinets are sweet John
  17. Very nice room Jeff! I like the flow of it. Nice and organized as well I am glad this thread got pinned... now hopefully there will be regular additions to it! great stuff guys! John
  18. Kudos to MemphisChad and Mr.Highgrade for a couple of recent packages. Great to deal with (both) and quick to ship! John
  19. If you click on your photobucket link, you'll see 3 links to the right of the picture (at photbucket). Click on the one that says "IMG code" it will auto copy... start a new post and paste it (control+v) Try that out for size John
  20. Man, I sure wish I had a time machine! Even back in the eighties... if I only bought more silver age books! I bought a very large amount, but I also spent a lot on the new stuff that was being pumped out. I look at some of the prices back then compared to today and shudder... shudder I tell you!
  21. It sure does! How long have you been amassing this collection?
