If you had...

$1k to spend on a single GA book, which one would you go after? What if your cap was $5k? And while we're at it, $10k as well. If you want to factor in grade that's your call (thumbs u

I'd definetely take a superman one if someone senile enough to sell it to me. If they wouldn't let it go for a grand, I'd offer them ten.

$1K and $5k would both be the best Phantom Lady books I could get for the price. $10K would likely be a low-grade Batman 1 or a high-grade Jumbo 1.

I've posted it multiple times recently. It's not as nice as Bedrock's or Bangzoom's copies but....

 

 

 

[TheShadowKnows]

Thank you.Awesome book.Thanks for sharing!

[snitzer]

Some really interesting choices all around...even from you Ciorac

 

Just thought it would be a nice change of pace from a grail, Tec only, MMC, etc., kind of thread. I'm also guessing the values I included are slightly more realistic for most collectors including myself.

 

I've watched a few ASM #1s float by lately and was tempted. Hard to resist!

Great thread. Taking a slight twist on the topic, I looked back at my recent purchases to evaluate what I'd consider buying again right now (based on current values and my personal assessment of enjoyment/investment potential).

 

Here is my "Best $" list and comments:

 

Best $100 Capt Aero #24 CGC 4.0 Big Apple

"Cool L.B. Cole cover, affordable, presents above grade and a pedigree to boot!"

 

 

Best $500 Master Comics #30 CGC 8,0

"At this price level, look for solid value with show-off potential!"

 

 

Best $1000 Action 36 CGC 7.0

"Trading a $1000 bill for a classic Action/Superman book this nice seems almost criminal!"

 

 

Best $2500 Captain America #27 CGC 7.0

"For this money, I want books with WOW-appeal and that can anchor my collection for years!"

 

.

 

Best $5-10k Detective #31 CGC 6.5 (MP)

"My sample set is small at this level (sorry), but these purchases are my grails, books that excite me, bring a smile after a tough day, and define why I'm in this great hobby in the first place!"

 

 

 

Well, that's my . Your mileage will vary.
