  1. Nedors (Excitings, Fighting Yank) have always been a cheaper Timely alternative. The Schomburg covers make them feel that way anyway.
  2. I believe the CGC ceiling grade on a book that suffers from the manufacturing defect of marvel chipping is 6.5 (FN+). I have seen AF 15s with MC in 6.5 blue holders.
  3. Agreed Steve. This is how price correction occurs and prices are lowered in hopes of moving them.
  4. 1.0 cgc could make it blue with notes regarding the glue. Or they could go 1.0 purple with glue. With GA, they are looser with glue and blue labels compared to SA-BA. It’s at their discretion.
  5. I thought the film was excellent. Boseman reps BP like Jackman (Wolverine), Downey Jr. (IM), and Gadot (WW).
  6. I had that book raw and sold it to Hector (Chicago board member) around that time. That sig is legit.
  7. agreed. Get the nicest X-Men 1 (5.0), Hulk 1 (1.0-1.5), or FF 1 (3.0) are some suggestions. Gold wise, you should do well at $6k long term with a Tec 69 (1.5) or Cap 3 (1.0), but those are harder to come by selection wise. But, if you love BA, then the highest grade Hulk 181 would work. I can't say IM 55 is a strong buy compared to the rest of the books mentioned in this post. Have fun hunting.
  8. Third Timely ever published (behind marvel 1 and marvel mystery 2). And the 1st cover Schomburg did for Timely.
  9. Agreed. Also, the Diamond Run from Vermont was originally designated as a pedigree on cgc labels. It was a large collection but I think a fair number of low grade issues were present (I owned the tec 35 for a few years), and some of the books were not OO. Not certain if all those details are accurate but cgc eventually stopped referring to them as “Diamond Run” pedigree on their labels.
  10. it's going to cost more than 1983 prices Harold
  11. Based on eye appeal alone, yes. It may depend on how much the green label bothers someone who is going to keep it slabbed.
  12. lots of auction time left. I wouldn't be surprised if the 4.0 green copy went for $50k-$60k...
