batt90 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 These are King Feature Syndicate proof sheets for the Wonder Woman Comic strip. If they don't fit here I will delete them. She has at least half of all the newspaper strips in her collection Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batt90 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) Overstreet listed it as scarce. Since I've owned at least 5 copies at one time or another, I'm not so sure about "scarce" except for in high grade. It's never been an easy book, but not really "scarce". So nice to hear that there is another female WW collector:) @Knightsofold It's a 10 cent cover, GAtor might be a golden age expert, but as far as I'm concerned, she looks beautiful right here (although you can post it both places;) Well I was referring to it in a high grade. There are a fair amount of lower grade copies around but not so easy to find a 6.0 or better which is what she likes to collect. As an FYI I wish I could figure out how to make these posts work correctly. Allie is kinda sorta a WW collector for sure.

I was coming off of the recent Comiclink auction where I came up empty (and was the underbidder on several books), so I threw down an anger bid . I will say that I wish all my 7.0s looked like this: A knockout, in more ways than one! batt90 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be wonderful to have her post here:) Somewhere back at the beginning of this thread, I put all my WW and Sensations on the floor and took pictures. I've since upgraded a bit, but it was a long journey to complete the series, I did meet one other woman at an auction years ago, who was also trying to complete the series. I think she was from NJ. I know she outbid me on a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked her 3 years ago if she wanted to join when I first did and because of her job she just did not want to get involved in anything else. Facebook with its WW groups was and is an effort for her. She has the complete Comic Cav run as well as the other 2 tho she is looking for a few upgrades. She also has a killer Big All American too and quite the vintage WW toy and art collection too. Is original vintage WW art allowed here or does that go somewhere else? We are not in NJ but NY. Edited March 18, 2017 by batt90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the WW, Sensation covers could rival (or surpass) the very best Action, Detective or covers, or any GA title for that matter. Speaking as a Batman guy I have to agree with you. Some of the Peter covers are just outrageously beautiful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzabar Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I have often wondered what other people think the key issues are in the Sensation Comics run. The ones that come to mind immediately are: #1 - for obvious reasons #2 - First Etta Candy #6 - first lasso #13 - Bowling pins cover #68 - first Huntress (although not in the Wonder Woman story) # 94 - First "all girl" issue Any others? A related question is what are the "classic" covers. Two of my favorites are: #26 and #35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Gator was bidding against me, too, by phone;) I won a few things I wanted, but at a much higher cost than I expected, lol. I don't know why you couldn't post "vintage" art. I have a few GA strips, and some SA art pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never really thought about key issues, I was more concerned with which ones I needed;) I suppose the Robot cover, I think it's 103, is a classic. If I remember correctly, #3 was the last time she was wearing a skirt. batt90 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were there for me because Phil had and I wanted and won a sealed Golden Records Batman kit that day. Wow this is very cool. I remember that day well cause I got it for a steal. I do remember u and Allie thought you were very nice. Are you on Facebook? That is about the only net Allie does. If I can't get her to sign up here maybe you 2 could connect that way. I am on it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batt90 Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I went on one of my old tablets and found this pic. The Big All American is a knockout. Its as nice as my 1940's World's Fair both of which came from the same dealer. Allie has 2 # 2's but still wants a better copy if she can find it.

Sorry, no, I don't do facebook, but please tell her hi for me, I had a feeling it was you, but it was a while ago, and I didn't remember exactly where you were from:) I thought she was very nice as well. Amazing collection she has accumulated. I'm always hoping more female collectors will show up here:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
