The other classic Suzie cover...

 

 

I also have one of those

 

 

But I think I may actually like the 56 (which I don't have) better.

[143ksk]

Nice

 

I agree the 56 is the best, if only due to Mr. McFoof's tongue

[GoldenPRGuy]

Steve don't you own the Crippen 56? I own the Crippen 51, I will post it later.

I guess that must be McFoof in the background of the 51 sweeping up.

I do have the Crippen 56. I'm hoarding pedigree copies

 

Love to see the 51!

[GoldenPRGuy]

Here's my 56...

You guys sure have some really nice looking 5.5's. Gorgeous gga covers fellows.

[GoldenPRGuy]

And here is my 51. Interesting book.... it's kinda low grade for a Crippen and the label says it is a double cover, which it is most certainly not (had to have been a major QC oversight).

 

I still love it just the same.

wow nice pick ups guys - I haven't been able to find any Suzie's recently to save my life!

very nice copy. You guys all take home the gold for these!

Jason, welcome. You're the king of high grade Suzie's ... just the guy for this convo.

 

Do you know what the deal is with that double cover designation on the Crippen 51? I bought it from you right?

Yes, It is just a mistake. I should have had them reholder it but I got it onsite graded at a comic show and they wouldn't do it on the spot.

 

Really nice copy. Some of the Crippens have some slight moisture, waviness to them that down grades them fairly significantly at CGC. This is one of those copies. I like them a lot because of their higher grade eye appeal.

 

They did the same thing to another comic of mine at the time - this is also not a Double Cover:

Here's one of my higher grade Suzie's.

 

Oh and my Church copy...

 

[comixcroz]

That number #63 is so sweet

 

I have the IRS collection copy

 

[GoldenPRGuy]

I bought this on eBay the other day Jason ... figured you'd appreciate it. Seller says it's a 9.0 and based on the photos I don't think he is far off. We will see what it looks like in hand, and if it grades out.

 

[comixcroz]

if the back looks that nice, I'd say it may do better than 9!

 

You must have jumped on that because didn't see it.

[sagii]

Guys, just speechless! Hubba Hubba! beautiful covers and copies. And a Church and the (in)famous IRS collection? Bragging rights for sure. Love the talking Dog cover too.

 

And those later Top Notch's post 28, are tough in nice shape. I've been looking for a 31 forever. Love the motor cycle cover on that one, and the 'jiggle' motions on Suzie

31 has also been a tough one for me too. I had a really low grade copy that I sold years ago that I regret selling now, I was holding out for a nicer one (never came!)

[GoldenPRGuy]

That IRS copy is great looking!

 

The back on the 62 looks good too. Looks like a little bit of dust shadow and light foxing, but nothing unsightly. We shall see.
