showcase22gr1959 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Would my SC 23 be worth slabbing? I posted it in the grading forum so if you want to check it out and tell me yay or nay, that would be great. From the scan...it looks like a 4.0 to 4.5. I love the nuclear explosion cover...just like my avatar. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarkEnterprises Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 So, would it be worth getting it graded? I'd use one of my coupons for it when I renew my membership at the beginning of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's well worth it for presentation and future resale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you planning on selling it? If so, then yes. If not, then why bother? Use your coupon to slab something you`re likely to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 The current Pedigree auction should give us a bit of an update on the strength of the early SA GL market: SILVER AGE DC'S: Although there are a few different titles represented in the auction, including a nice group of 9.4-9.8 Wonder Womans, the highlight is the Batman and Green Lantern runs from the early 1960's that will simply blow you away. The Batman group consists of 25 books, all in 9.0 and higher, most in 9.6 and higher, including the complete 20 book Pacific Coast run of #s 152 through 171. The Green Lantern group consists of 11 issues between #3 and #19, all but two in 9.4 and higher, with a few Pacific Coast issues. Almost every book in these two runs is the highest CGC graded copy with most being the single highest certified! Here is the complete list of the Batmans and Green Lanterns: Green Lantern: 3 9.2 6 9.2 9 9.4 11 9.4 12 9.6 13 9.4 14 9.6 15 9.4 (Pacific Coast) 17 9.8 (Pacific Coast) 18 9.6 (Pacific Coast) 19 9.6 (Pacific Coast) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john72tex Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Those are some super sweet GLs!! Too bad I won't be able to afford any of those. I have a Pacific Coast GL headed my way sometime soon from C-Link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Nice list. (thumbs u Has anyone noticed Green Lantern 87 has really been taken off lately. I'm trying to find a 9.6 upgrade copy, but it's going to cost almost $1K now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dikran Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Thanks guys! And if anyone can turn me on to a SC 24 in 6.0-8.0 let me know. The Pedigree auctions look to be a very good indicator indeed. I will be trying to go for the #3 for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I could do that as I may get things cheaper... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber-Bob Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I asked a number of dealers at C2E2 about the demand for Green Lantern. The consensus was #7 is the issue everyone is asking about. Sinestro aside, #7 has always been the most difficult to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) Definitely. I have been fortunate to turn up a 9.0 and a 9.2 over the past 4 years, but nothing else in high grade. Were there any copies there? Also, were there any nicer copies of SC #22 available? Edited April 20, 2010 by kimik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber-Bob Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I didn't see any. For my personal collection I was only looking for a high grade #18 and I did not find one of those either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
