selegue Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 If I'm right about Radium Giants, let me know. I suspect that cover-to-cover scanned issues are out there somewhere. That was a pretty good guess, wasn't it? Love them radium-proof cloaks and gloves, not to mention how everyone conveniently carries around bondage chains in Golden Age Wonder Woman stories. Thanks!

Buck Biggins Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Nice to see more Wonder Woman Collector's on the thread,and really NICE books! I was surprised to win this last night, not one of my favorite covers, but one that was hard to find, even in low grade, so I'm happy (and I blame Gator for selling me those other Crippens, so I got hooked;) Great copy. You got a nice price on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got a nice price on that one. Thanks, Andrew, actually I forgot about the auction and bid late, I really wanted the storm one, but I got outbid on that one and I had too many bids up to UP it;) I didn't know I'd lose them all but for this one:) So, I didn't want to take a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skypinkblu Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Sporadically;) I think my aim is to have an average of VG;) not G- It all depends, there are too many to aim for all 7.0's and as you know, they are way too hard to find...and then there are my Sensations...

Bomber-Bob Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 It's so true. Finding the books from 40 through 112 can be a definite challenge with the exception of a couple that seem to always crop up but only in low grade. I've really been focusing on finishing the silver age portion of the collection and I'm finally down to just needing 13 books (86, 90, 91, 93, 95, 96, 98, 102, 103, 106, 107, 108, 111.) Finding the Golden Age books has been easier in a lot of ways than the early SA stuff. Of course the GA books need 62 more to finish that lot. Anyone with any leads please let me know. Going through this thread I have to compliment you all. There are some beautiful books listed and some amazing collections have been put together! Welcome to the Boards and it's good to find another WW fan. I once had less than 10 books needed to complete a full WW run and finally gave up. Some of these books must be non-existant in a decent grade ?!? The CGC census backs this up, example: my WW 111 is the only one in the census. It's no wonder it's on your want list. Raw scan, she's now a CGC Blue 8.5 ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillS25 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 111 is one of the few silver age Wonder Woman's that I need. I know of one VF/NM and I've been holding off cause I don't want to pay the price but so help me if it ends up being the last one I need I'll end up buckleing under!

BillS25 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 :news:Just had to share my newest addition to my Wonder Woman collection. I was thrilled to finally add a Wonder Woman 7 to the collection! I'm figuring a G/VG grading for this one at this point to MAYBE a low VG- but my conservative side is getting the better of me and heading towards a G/VG. Pages range from white to off-white, centerfold well attached at both staples. Moderate cover gloss still which was surprising. One page inside has a 1 inch tear.

MrBedrock Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 was that the bedrock copy? The bedrock copy is so low grade it makes that look like a 9.6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skypinkblu Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 was that the bedrock copy? The bedrock copy is so low grade it makes that look like a 9.6. I've had 3, the first one had no cover AND someone actually shot it with a gun...probably a bb gun, I hope... So, your's CAN't possible be worse than that;) I do own the Gator copy now;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
