agree Leroy, your copy looks much nicer and let's hope the 3 current Batman #1s on Heritage go to the moon! 

Alton, it would be nice. I really think the .5 will hit $40K

Well I've waited a long time to see a nice looking Bat 1 .5 missing back cover come to auction. Now I'll get to see what the value of mine is when I sell it in 10 years.

Heritage copy on top and mine on bottom. Pretty much apples to apples comparison.

Thanks for the heads up on these Leroy ... I just won this one to build a book from. Someone wanted the Action #12 more than me though. I am anxious to see what the Detective #33 cover ends at, it's beautiful!

Very nice and not a bad price. Congrats!

Hi, do you have the link to the eBay listing?  I can’t read what the .5 listing says.   Why is it a .5?

It would have been a perfect companion to your 31 .5 missing back cover.

Closed and thanks everyone for the kind words about this comic that is no longer mine. 

Just back this week and ready to hang.

Warlord 15 pg 18

Detective 389 pg 4

Tales To Astonish 100 pg 19

You flippers!

I can fortunately say I still own all the ones in my signature line.

I rarely post but when I do I like to think I add value to a thread. 

This time I'm not adding any value. Just wanted to get a post in.

That's not the 1970 card fishbone quoted. That's the 1969 card. Way better. Congrats.

On the current CC auction there are some Sup 1 pages. This one says Page 7 Only just like the beauty above ^ . Is it the same page just flipped over? I can't see the back picture on the CC site.

Yes same page. I asked mine be slabbed with the car lifting scene be on front. 

These big price jumps are all practically since March. Like Fishbone said I have noticed big movement on  lot of my cards that had been moving up very slowly last several years. If he has O-Pee-Chee Gretzky then yes PSA 7 are $5K  but from what I can see regular PSA 7 Gretzkys are $2000 now but thats still up from $650 back in March

Some of my cards average price in March and today. I subscribe to Vintage Card Prices for my data and these are not just a sale here or there but in most cases last 10+ sales.

These prices are average with top price at times being 30% more.

I just picked up another page showing the first appearance of Catwoman. (I’ve now got two of this exact page). Up until this page, she only appeared in disguise as an old woman. Batman catches wise to her and the vibe gets pretty pervy after that. I believe the big fella is smitten . . . 

What a coincidence. I also have 2 of this page. Mine are still stuck with all the other pages they came with originally. 

I first met Bob in 2003 at the Motor City promoted Chicago show in March. I had just purchased a early/mid 60's DC collection from Ringgold GA with white pages. Bob loved white pages!

Each backing board was crudely stamped "Ringgold GA. Collection". He loved them so much he came to the next Indianapolis IN show I setup at and bought more.

So the couple times a year we would meet at shows that collection was brought up. 

Such a great personality and passion for the hobby.

I had PM'ed Bob over last year and a half until few months ago when he just got too sick. I was able to keep up with his decline through a mutual friend who would visit him.

Bob Meadows I miss you already.

Just occurred to me I'm obscenely jealous of the books in your signature!  

Thanks! 

Someone explain this please.

A Bat 1 CGC 2.5 Heritage auction on Sept 10 2020 sold for $102K and then resold by the make offer to owner for $132K on Sept 16. Now is available again with make an offer for $172K.

Is it that easy to buy mega keys and resell without ever having Heritage send anyone the comic???

GPA only shows the $102K sale.
