Flash105

Do you think this book has stabilized after the run up two years ago?

8,365.00 to be exact.

I just want to see someone post it in here. What's the highest graded copy in the club.

A couple of Stevens books going off in a few minutes on CL.

come get it! You are the serpent the bible speaks of my friend.

I may need to, I haven't had a 105 for over a year now. Their use to be a boardie whose handle was showcase-4 and actually had black t-shirts made up for conventions.

It was my former book. It is a really pretty book. I'm glad it found a new home.

Were they selling the GIC cover recreation laying there on the table?

I use a 18x12x6 250 lb plain cardboard box, no markings, no anything. On 1-2 books, I put them back to back and then I use 5 48"x12" strips of 3/8" bubble. I wrap two strips in both directions and then cut the last piece in two and put it at the ends. It fills the box and then two strips of clear packing tape to close it off. Since I tape nothing in the inside, it makes it easy to unpack. As for shipping I use UPS and I have never had any thing damaged. I have shipping over 600 books this way. The closest call I had was with a 10K book. The box was mangled almost beyond recognition but the book was safe and sound inside its bubble wrap. I definitely do not write fragile, handle with care, or valuable on any box. In any case, human hands usually don't damage boxes with UPS. Most damage occurs on belts when heavy stuff hits think light stuff.

Always nice to jump back in with guns a blazing. (thumbs u

I think its time to update that sig line.

It definitely has four sharp corners.

Take it out of the slab and its the real thing. Very nice book.

Very cool. A grail among grails.

It would be cool if you could get McFarland to sign your 423. Those are some great covers and the sigs are well placed on most of them.

Boo yah. That is a super duper copy.

That is a nice run Steve. Good luck with you life and the decisions you make on your books.

Are all these still raw? The look very nice. I love photo covers.

These look like long lost twins.

Your standards are to high.

For whoever was looking for a 13, there is one on comiclink. http://www.comiclink.com/itemdetail.asp?back=%2Fsearch_adv%2Easp%3Fall%3Dy%26TITLE%3D%26TITLEOPT%3DALL%26ISSUE%3D%26Condition%3D%26ConditionTo%3D%26CGC%3DYES%26CensusRank%3D%26Pedigree%3D%26PRICEF%3D%26PRICET%3D%26DESCRIPTION%3D%26DESCRIPTIONOPT%3DALL%26SearchRemarks%3D%26SearchCGC%3D%26EXCLUDE%3D%26CATEGORIES%3D-1%26WCATEGORIES%3D-1%26SORT%3DNEW%26_where_forsale%3Dy%26_where_auctions%3Dy%26x%3D34%26y%3D9%26where_forsale%3Dy%26pg%3D3&id=937955

That 8.0 is a nice copy. If you don't buy moderns, you might consider buying the Batman Annual. Its a real good story and explores Freeze's origin.

Barton, On the group shot, numbers and values ignored, which is the best. The 6,10, and 20 look to be very sharp copies.

So the obvious question is why now and do you buy the number or book meaning Doug's 9.8 or Metro's 9.6?

That is an awesome book and an awesome scan.
