innocuous

24 hours left. I'm sure my high bid won't last. Who will steal this from me.

This. First thing I do after cracking out a book is smell it. (Yay for comic chat boards where this statement is totally reasonable.)

Congrats. It's hard to tell from the pic, but that first copy looks nicer than 8.5.

Yes. Usually CGC will note the name, such as "Stan Lee written on cover in marker". Maybe it was really a kid named Stan Lee and this is his personal copy. If that's the case, we need to track him down and let him know someone stole his comic.

Sharp looking copy.

Welcome to the boards. Time to post some pictures.

Why else are we here? I mean, we could also cross-reference the census to GPA. Then, we could also pull the published run numbers and extrapolate another guesstimate. In addition, we can calculate the probability of how many mom's threw away which comics based on how naughty the kids were back in the day. But all of that would be way off because when I look at my collection, I don't see a copy of OOAW#83. Wait a minute, that aligns with the data!

Bumped again for the personalized option and still outbid.

General cooling trend across the silver age?

This is a good list based on the OP. However, I would give one up for FF52. I just don’t know which to replace.

Yes. Assigned one table, would take up three.

Outbid. Need to check back later.

Strong prices in the HA auctions that just finished. I was thinking of throwing in some bids, but the copies listed all had 50+ bidders tracking. Congrats to winners.

Colors POP!

ebay, HA and others all have had colorful conversations on the boards about shenanigans. Good luck.

Not mine, but one of the five is for sale right now in the for sale forum.

Actually, impossible to find without all the puzzles filled in on the inside. I've had 2 of those in the past, but some kid ruined them by doing puzzles and drawings instead of putting them into mylars. If those are your copies, Congrats! Since we're also adding scarce non-keys, I would also add New Adventures of Charlie Chan.

So far it sounds like OAAW83 and SC6 are in the competition. Sounds good to me so far. Seems like no love for the sidekicks, Jimmy1 or SC9.

I have the Amazing World of Carmine Infantino, where he is credited as co-author. Not sure of any others.

Well, since my copy is raw, and I had to pull it out of the mylar to check the back, we'll go with very very special person, aka, astronaut, on the back.

Hey, no teenage angst with DC. Just real stories.

I never should have let my other copies go. I'm down to one left.
