Looks like I will have to keep the home Pedigree fires burning.  Another Thor Green River Comes home

 

Congrats on a great book jbud!  And glad you're keeping this thread alive  I'll hopefully have a couple more to post soon...

I've never used GoCollect but going to check it out today.  GPA looks like a mess.  If GPA's main reason for updating their website was to gain more referral revenue, and therefore refuse to listen to customer concerns and complaints, then they deserve to lose business for their crappy new design.

well, i can't compete with martin's sick collection, but i just got this amazing beauty to briefly fill my white page obsession hole from the great @DST today and i couldn't be happier! this has been a grail for me for a few years now. 

Congrats on your beautiful ASM #3 pick-up!  Dave hooked you up with a gorgeous White pager!

Haven't bought anything different for my ASM keys this year, but here are two upgrades I've gotten in the last month or so on books I already had. Previous copies were also 8.5's, but upgraded to White pages and slightly better wraps on each. Despite the weird spotting on the inner well, the Berk 20 is absolutely sick to behold. Should've been an 11.0

 

Here's the SA gang all together: All white pages except the 9 on the left. All 8.5 except the Annual.

 

 

Congrats on those gorgeous White Pagers!! A collector after my own heart.  And colors are popping on those books

let's revive the spider, dormant since wed.  first one i bought off a spinner at age 8.

Very sweet White pager! 

Sad to say, but without question this is going to be cancelled/postponed.  Even if it were not, would anyone risk their or their families health to attend the event this year?

Wow! There has been a lot of beautiful books posted here in the last few days!

Here’s my 8 on the 8th:

 

That's a very pretty looking #8!  And also the first Ditko Spidey book I ever purchased.  Love that yellow cover

I just picked a copy of Amazing Spider-Man #15 from a fellow board member.

Thanks, @Gsims718, for selling me this book.

Another great cover!

That is one beautiful 6.5! Under graded?

Thank you John!  There are several non-color breaking bends/indents on the front and back cover that give me the feeling it's not been pressed yet.  I think a CPR could push the grade upward

This is why I refuse to buy anything from PGX. 

You have to stand in awe at some of the stuff they've tried to pull off.  This forgery is mild in comparison to their many past transgressions!  I will never forget the "professionally authenticated" Ditko sharpie signature

no, this thread cannot suffer the indignity of page 2.  let's go with mj's first cover this morning.

Wow, 9.8 White pager

My X-Men run is now complete.

Congrats Sweet Lou!!  What better way to finish it off then with a gorgeous white pager!

Great observations!  What immediately stuck out to me were the giant loops on the "O's"!  Horrible attempt of an obvious forgery.  PGX should be ashamed of itself  

Well if they had an ounce of credibility, they would be...

The Romita sig really has me scratching my head   More fraudulent activity from your friendly neighborhood competitor?
