pee wee 22

can you post a BC pic of your AF 15 please?

Hey guys, got something I wanted to share with ya'll. This is been weighing heavy on me for a few days. On August 13th I got an offer email from Heritage Auctions (HA) to sell my AF15 (8.0). Heck, I did not know it was even for sale. HA told me comics automatically go into this mode after archiving. Anyway, the offer was $170,000 !!!

 

This is life changing money. After many hours of no sleep and consulting with 2 well known Board members, I respectfully declined (well, there is more to it but I will spare the details...if the offeror is a Board member, I just cannot let the book go and that's a fantastic and beyond fair offer).

 

I purchased the book August 17, 2011 from HA (5 years tomorrow). I saw something special in it and told my wife and son I had to own it. Anyway, rest assured your AF15s are nice prizes (understand this is one offer and does not mean AF15s should be price-adjusted). A comic is worth what someone will pay for it, not what GPS, Overstreet, or a Board member says.

 

Anyway, I have to show this again...the book and story behind it since the 5 year anniversary of me being it's new dad is tomorrow. The book was purchased off the stands by Ed Sarley, an avid collector, who died in an auto accident on Thanksgiving Day 1974 at age 25. Enjoy.

that is one beauty of a book

it looks way nice than 8.0 and the page edges look white

MUCH MUCH nice than the 8.5 that sold in the august heritage auction

you def have a great eye peewee, I was the underbidder on the Janowicz ff 1 you won- I will never forgive you for that ;p just kidding

I may be heading to London

any recommendations for shops with a good selection of back issues and OA?

one could add the RObert Bell Collection if it is still intact

I remember an article in Bell in CBM and Bell stated in the mid 80'[s he sold his complete high grade marvel collection which he had compiled since the 60's

i heard a rumor Eminem could be actively seeking this OA

im sure he has the funds for a $1 milllion purchase

seriously $1 million??!!

that'd be amazing

id say 300-400k

i think a big factor is that the OA for hulk 181 prob does not exist

therefore this could be the very 1st and available Wolvie OA

140K isn't even close to what this is going to finish at. It should challenge the DKR splash for highest amount paid for an interior. I wouldn't be shocked it tops it.

that was $400K?

unreal

this baby is going to bring some crazy $

stupendous!

how many years did it take to build that run?

hey eggs

can u please share how you came across teh collection, what teh OO did/does for a lviing etc?

lvoe this sort of stuff

Wow

was just reading about this on the cgc news

My lone CLink win - I've never heard of the 'White Chapel' collection, but I sure do like the look on this book:
