  1. What, you couldn’t get any higher grade USA’s !!!??! I hate you ! 😅😂🤣 seriously, that is one INCREDIBLE run man !!!
  2. WOW!!!! The whole run ??!! Let's see it (especially want to see your #7)
  3. small businesses have taken it up the you-know-what this past year - So brutal !!! Good luck to you man ......
  4. what about all of the government handouts and bailouts across so many industries. I mean, there really was/is no choice, but the bottom line is we ALL have to pay for this pandemic ..... eventually. We are certainly all in this together.
  5. Don't drive yourself crazy ..... how should I say .... some people just have "more" and more as in disposable income, and actually some are doing BETTER because of the pandemic believe it or not .... 350 million in the US plus 35 mil in Canada - just North America, I'm sure there are some there in the "have" category in the GA collecting community and remember those that have been collecting for a long long time have lots of goodness to trade with as well ............
  6. and................................................... got it ! Woo hoo !!!!
  7. always loved this cover !!! ( and don’t worry mods, I will be doing a crossover sub for CGC grading )
  8. Holy crappers, finally a Timely grail I’ve been seeking for years, just arrived !!
  9. might be one of last Romita SS 's ...... don't think he's doing well
  10. Absolutely. Comparisons in this crazy world we live in, if Bitcoin can go up 450% past year, if Tesla can go up 750% this past year, well 233% for a comic isn’t exactly out of reach. Regarding comics, other comparisons could be TMNT1, ASM300, UF4 in the past year probably over 250% gains in many grades. Yeah, everything is running now. Look at how many Copper and Modern books in 9.8 are selling for several thousands now after being in the $200-$500 range last year. It is a great time to be a collector with a lot of inventory in all sorts of different hobbies................. X-MEN 3.0 $15,000 ??!!!! ok, that would be awesome !!
  11. To answer OP question: with regards to Superman, I sure hope so -- 15 years now and hardly a move upwards in many of my early Actions ..........
  12. Who knew in 1964 that there would be a thread dedicated to this book in 2021?
  13. You can keep the tins, but can I have the stacks of Silver Age in the backround ?
  14. Just to be clear - I do know of the couple original art Speed Comics covers, I can see them on Heritage. But what I was wondering was 1) any classic Timely covers ? (Cap, Torch, MMC, Submariner .........) - and I see Cat answered with the one that seems to have survived, but is that truly all we know of ? For the record, I am not shocked if that is the case, as any GA cover original art is extremely rare, I was just asking cause of how freaking incredible his original art is/would be 2) any interior pages - I'm under the impression he was a cover guy mainly (only?) - just wanted to pick the brains of those in the know here Thanks PS I absolutely LOVE Cat's original Schomburg "re-creation" painting - how many different ones of these exist ? I suppose these are the closet anyone can come to owning something original from Schomburg ?
  15. Whoa! There is one ! $167,500 ask in 2003 ??!!! Can't imagine what this would bring in an auction in 2021 ..............................
  16. yes, the Speed Comics ones ........ which are incredible. But I mean MMC, CA, HT ...... those covers or even pages ?
  17. not sure if here or Original Art is best place for this topic/question, but I thought I'd get better info here
  18. 1) TEC #31 any shape, just as long as front cover is complete 2) same with Tec #33 3) Cap #46 ( holocaust) - mid-grade
