Primetime

sheez..you have 3? got an extra AW 11 litho?

nice Rob. I'd like to get that AW 11 litho someday. I really wish Schomburg did lithos to All Select 1 or 2. Ben, I wish he made a Capt America Comics 27 and a Marvel Mystery 46 (thumbs u I wonder how he decided which ones to re-create? Were these his personal favorite covers?

I have that same one: 90/150...The last Heritage print sold in Nov 09 for $1250. I would ask for more for my print since it was $400 just to frame with UV protective glass. Schomburg did the oil pointing re-creation in 1977. Then 150 (plus 10 proofs) signed additions were made in 1984. There are also lithos of All Winners #11 and Marvel Mystery (#66?). I think they are great to have if you are a Cap/Schomburg die-hard.

me too. to keep a low grade SA key in the tomb is Hulk 1 might be my favorite SA Marvel # 1 right now.

back to SA/BA where you belong sir! See in SD

I like the cover to #28, but there definitely is something cool about how that book looks coverless. #27 has been reprinted a zillion times, Dr. Death made it into the 30's to the 70's book, and the Monk stories were in a 100 pager. The fact that it's the second Batman story, and was unreprinted for such a long time(not until the Archives edition in the nineties) has added to its mystique. true, and if 28 was a Bat cover, more collectors would be familiar with the story @ Dolby Dickles- I think the key word in the early adventures is the mystique, such an incredible first year intro Batman had. Stories and all. Covers like 29,31,35 etc etc leave the audience in awe. I am impressed with the legacy Bill Finger, Bob Kane, Jerry Robinson, and MANY GHOSTS ARTISTS AND WRITERS left behind with these glorious early adventures. Read them all over 20 times but I always enjoy them. And oh man, Primetime!, could you imagine a Tec 28 cover? If it was as myesterious as 29 and 31 - good lord! as with the early Actions, we will never know what covers "could have been" if, say, Actions 1 up and Tecs 27-37 were ALL Supes and Bat covers

any problems during the surgery?

does that mean richard is the timely queen still royalty

nice haul Rob---are all these recent pick ups?

decisions..decisions...

OK, you've convinced me

Ben the writing looks like its in pencil. I would be tempted to have it removed, what are your thoughts on the topic? As I've always said, this MMC#9 of DC's (and vice versa). (thumbs u yah, the writing and dust shadow (probably harder to remove) could go for a water clean. I've never considered doing it though. The writing doesn't bother me (although I wish it was a full date stamp instead). The dust shadow bothers me more, but I am betting used to it I'm not sure if a cleaning would keep it in a blue label.

Very nice. I get my copy at SDCC. I can't wait!!!! I'll get to meet you Andre (finally) at SDCC and celebrate your 31 pick up (thumbs u

Re-posting this book...1 year ago today (June 9, 2009) this was at my doorstep.

looks like a full date stamp on that ST 101 (thumbs u Let me guess "JULY 10 1962"

nice Mark, esp that Avengers 1

Jaw dropping to say the least! Amazing Ben! I love the Tec 31 and MM9 next to eachother. What more can a collector really want!

very kind words (thumbs u , but I'm small potatoes compared to some other boardies If you buy/collect what you LIKE, you will never have a collection that sucks (thumbs u

oops I thought this was the Timely thread really poppin colors in hand!

Krap+Junk = seems to be all Gator ever has (thumbs u I wish I had a big pile of krap like that. i hear it's nice

Outstanding group shot Ben! I miss the two 'kids' that you adopted away but nice to see they have such distinguished siblings. (thumbs u thanks D, but the great thing is they are all still in the "family" so to speak

yep, I can't own everything, but if I have a few slices of the pie, then I'm good Not sure what might be next...i guess what ever floats down the river my way
