Im sure that Heritage promoted the collection to CGC as a Pedigree, and to the Toths that they would give it a strenuous but not guaranteed effort to do so. CGC has been very stingy about Pedigree status for years, so this collection missing out just puts it on that list of near misses. Still great company to be in.

This would be true if CGC hadn`t just given pedigree status to the Rocky Common Mountain collection. I didn`t comment when the Toth collection was first brought to market by CGC, because in fact they had been pretty tough about giving pedigree status over the last few years. But when they recognized a pedigree that as far as I can tell represented lots of ultra-HG books from an era lousy with ultra-HG books, I was puzzled and irritated.

 

I think both collections are borderline Pedigree quality. The Toth collection is DC only with a lot of the earlier stuff, although it may be highest graded, is still below 9.0. There are some phenomenal runs in ultra high grade though. The RMs are light on the keys in terms of grade but ULTRA high grade from the mid 60s on. My original point was that the Toth collection is not a SLAM DUNK Pedigree, which is what a lot of the posters were saying. I can see it getting the Pedigree designation but I'm not surprised that it didn't either. To say that it is undoubtedly a Pedigree without hesitation is just over-exhuberance IMO. This of course comes from someone who does not collect SA DC and it seems that all the proponents of the Toth collection being Pedigreed are the DC collectors on the board.

Two more for kicks

 

 

I've always wanted a copy of that book. Does it go over Guide generally?

I nominate ComicSupply for 3rd Member.

Just came in from stage*handz, inspired by CapFreak's #11, and Dang, those Schomburg covers...!

 

Cool Background and a Black Cat app!

George? Or something like that or am I way off?

Denver Doll man, just because Denvers are so tough

 

to start getting gator in the ponscon mood, i'll post his favorite denver. if you think any old denver is tough, how about an o'street classic cover??

 

oh, and it's for bob, too; hello pal!

 

Example:

White Page tec with awesome cover pre-batman

C/OW Jimmy Olsen in Mid grade crepe.

All Select #1. This one has to be a landslide.

That ridiculous GL cover where he tries to take GL out with a bolo and he seems to be 9 stories tall.

Its a Joker Batman in HG with a great cover

How about the original cover of Young Allies 1 with Stalin on it? Is there even one copy out there ? Or even an Ashcan? If there was would would that be worth?

Next time call and request a Qual. grade.

Thanks Bill....had to do something to get away from the television.....I am truly ashamed to be a Panthers fan right now.

 

Ashamed.

 

 

Be proud of those cool books though Scott

 

But yeah, the Panthers (especially Delhomme) stunk it up. Long time coming for the Cardinals though.

Fricking Rams made the worst decision in franchise history. Besides leaving LA.

The Rams owner was

I found this animated GIF, thought of this thread and had to bump it.

 

Best thread ever.

Sweet books!!! It's tough to find these in decent shape. No FF collection is complete without this reprint series.

Scrooge. The cover on the CNDP is just ok.

Let me just get that out of the way.

I am a total modern noob.

But I just finished the third TPB of Invincible and I have to say that I am just blown away.

Tec 27 because Bats is way cooler

This is where they sold/gave out the Marvel Value Stamp Booklets iirc.
