    Cool book Miami, congrats! Yeah, great WWII aviation content in that one. All the #1's from the big six huh? That will be a nice group. I have only two and most likely be as far as I get. Wouldn't mind a Planet #1 though. Never owned one. I've picked at the run for like forever and only have about 2/3rds of them.

    Very nice Jungle 1 RM! I just love the face Fine drew on that Lion.

    Yep yep. I angsted over both of those but couldn't swing 'em. A fellow boardie did get the #3 and posted it.

    As I recall, some books were undergraded, some had random flaws and were actually a bit overgraded, but the eye appeal/freshness on nearly all of them seemed pretty darn nice.

     

    I remember those books as well. Still kicking myself for not getting the 2. :cry:

    I love the dark "moody" covers on Top Notch. Only have a handful of mostly low graders but I do have one that some kid named "Riley" stamped his name on the back cover...:devil:

    I fished it out of a box at WonderCon many years ago. There were still un-noted copies floating around the Bay Area at the time.

    So awesome to see a raw San Francisco copy! Thanks for sharing the book and the story!! Haven't been collecting as long as you RM, but I too remember the days when you could spot a raw pedigree copy in a box at a show...:preach: my how times have changed..

    Hey Gang

    After 2 years this mini run is over. This tittle sparked my interest back into golden age two years ago. Thank you to all the boardies for the support and friendship during this process. The goal is to upgrade as time continues and also will start the mission to put together my beloved fight run back like I did a 8 years ago.

    I just love the Rangers run. 2 years is an amazing accomplishment. Some tough and nearly impossible books in that run. Congrats!
