Jaded Savage Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Damn. If only Milgrom didn't do the cover. Still, I would love to have that book. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Town Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 That's such a great book. But I have a hard time looking at that cover. Every time I do, I'm afraid I'll start collecting pre-code horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boboset Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) That's such a great book. But I have a hard time looking at that cover. Every time I do, I'm afraid I'll start collecting pre-code horror. I feel the same way. Thanks to folks like bomber-bob and Korvac Saga, I'm pretty sure I'll be jumping on the pre-hero Marvel horror bandwagon pretty soon.

MatterEaterLad Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 More books from the Harlan Ellison Collection are finally rolling in. More boxes to open... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Awesome books, but they should not be noted in the pedigree field since they arent pedigrees. The collection field was already filled in where it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber-Bob Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Awesome books, but they should not be noted in the pedigree field since they arent pedigrees. The collection field was already filled in where it should be. CGC did the same thing with the Don Rosa collection. In fact the Boards argued about this with many believing it was a pedigree. I even called CGC and they said Don Rosa is not a pedigree, the presence of the word 'collection' indicating thus. Hoiwever, I agree with you, it is not a Pedigree and should not be noted in the pedigree field. Nice collection ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered about that as well, but figured the word "collection" would settle any confusion. I wasn't aware of the same thing on the Don Rosa books. With a few of the restored books, or books that Harlan wrote, the collection field is jam-packed with details and there simply isn't room, so the collection provenance had to go somewhere else.

TheLiamSturgess Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Keep in mind it's not an area reserved exclusively for Pedigree designations. The "TRIMMED" designation goes there too. Also the "country" designations such as "UK Edition", "Spanish Edition" etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Amazing Chump Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 My 2012 coupon submission: Overall pleased. Two books better than I thought, one worse. Hammered me on the PQ though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatterEaterLad Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Undergrounds in those boxes yet? Just one book. It's curious, because the underground stuff were the first books I saw and snapped them up immediately. It wasn't until I saw the motherlode that I bought en masse. So you'd think those books would have been graded first, but they graded all the high dollar books first, and now working their way down. Am I to believe CGC thinks the underground stuff is less important? Wouldn't think so after the new pedigree and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EggsAckley Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 It's more time consuming to grade an underground (print verification, etc.). My submissions always seem to take longer than they should. I have one due Monday that is not even in scheduled for grading yet. Let's see the one UG book.

smithdatura Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 More books from the Harlan Ellison Collection are finally rolling in. More boxes to open... Very cool! Can you point me in the direction about some discussion regarding the origins of these books? First I hear of them and Ellison is one of my favorite authors of all time - to me he and Ray Bradbury are two of the greatest fantasy writers of the past century. I'd love to be able to purchase one of the books from his collection - are they available for sale anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
