My new Comic room and vault:

 

Great stuff ~ fantastic "vault" area, eccomic!

Using the Craftsman tool storage unit for slabs/etc is a keen idea for some additional security... I may need to consider that.

I have one piece from Ernie Chan. It's a commission I had done a few years ago. Conan and Tigra.

Nah, not Diggler... more like (thumbs u !

All I can say is WOW :o :o Incredibly well-written Zonker. Certainly makes me want to delve into some research and my early 70's books to see what I can find.

Agreed! (thumbs u (thumbs u

Very nicely done, Z -- Great Thread!

I had to go back and reconsider this one... lol

* $12K+?!

lol

Absolutely :censored:'in hilarious! (thumbs u

Hey, nice nab on that double cover Swamp Thing Annual, Moon... ah, 1980's Adrienne Barbeau!

What, no shout-out for spotting that Avengers?

I wasn't involved with this sale, but what do you think of the price?

 

For a 9.8, from that era it seems like a decent price... oh, AND it's a Double Cover?!

Package monster? Is that a monster ?

I don't believe so, as you can clearly see... this particular specimen is of the 3-eyed monster variety.

Though as I observe further, I must say there are some... similarities.

What, it's been a month w/ no here...?

A recently received purchase found that a Shiverbones "Package Monster" had tagged along:

* It looks massive, but is approx 5"x5"... I'm still working w/ the learning curve on my new camera.

Picked up a great 4-page battle sequence from Conan 203, with Conan vs. Thulsa Doom to the death! Thanks to Anthony Snyder.

Man, that Conan sequence is re-donk-ulous, Matt!

I think all REH fans have to love Rush on some level.

... oh yeah, nice Marvel Tales HC too, Tupenny.

This is indeed a fantastic thread...thanks for posting!

Indeed! I'll consider myself educatmacated!

Muchas gracias...

Quick Story-

 

Was at the Chicago Con digging thru boxes when a guy comes up and asks the dealer "Do you have any double covers?". I turn to the guy and I say, "Joe?".

 

Turns it was gijoed with whom I've traded a lot of emails and some books. He set up a small booth at the con and was selling 2-packs, 3-packs, comics, and ephemera.

 

Had a lot of conversations with him and even gave him some GA double covers that I found and did not fit my collection.

 

Really funny guy. Told me his first book he ever bought off of the rack was JLA #21. He's trying to get the book in every possible CGC grade. 0.5 / 1.0 / 1.8 / 2.0 / 2.5 etc.

 

I saw him picking up about six copies of JLA #21 from the CGC booth. Had a beautiful looking 9.4

 

Also saw him subbing a book that he was hoping to get a 1.0, as he already have a 0.5. I told him the book looked too nice and he should rip off more of the back cover.

lol Great story and cool to finally meet a nemesis/colleague eh, Moon? (thumbs u

I'm really not into "ACEO" Trading Card art, but this was too decent to pass up for my $0.99 bid + a stamp!

Nicely done, Sir! (thumbs u (thumbs u

That's a GREAT pulp, Tupenny!

Always quality material in this thread -- I'm green w/ envy.

Great finds -- man, I love a bargain! (thumbs u

I picked up a few pieces before Matt left for the Chicago Comic Convention since I did not go.

 

These are all fantastic pieces and I am on . Thanks again, Matt.

Sir, I envy your Kirscht-Kollection! (thumbs u

Great additions, C.A.!

Of course... (worship)

The ultimate Conan Grail!
