Unrestored run of cgc graded Detective comics 1 to 25 at Comic connect

[swapto]

They are my old run.

 

Just sent them the #26 today.

 

I sold them to Metro to give myself a chance at the Action #1.

 

 

George wow what a beautiful run of books. The #3 Lost Valley Copy is my favorite (outside of issue #1).

 

The #3 was the hardest to find.

 

Rare in any shape. This is the highest graded and I had to thank Rick for finding it.

 

As I remember he used it as a bargaining chip to prise one of my CGC 5.0 blue Tec #31s out of my hands.

 

 

 

 

im surprised Peter didn't buy it from you...

not high enough a grade

What books contain an ad for Batman's first appearance in Det 27?

[Crowzilla]

Detective 26

[G.A.tor]

Detective 26

there's another one right (or maybe 2 others) ?

[swapto]

new adventure 26 i believe... or is that superman...?

[EastCoastExchange-migratio]

How much do you suspect the #15 will go for?

[Crowzilla]

new adventure 26 i believe... or is that superman...?

 

Yep that's Superman.

 

The other April-May 1939 books would be:

Action 11-12

Adventure 37-38

All American 1-2

More Fun 42-43

the other one I was thinking of is the More Fun (thumbs u

[Yannis]

Na 26 has the action ad.

[Silver Surfer]

Doesn't an early Action issue have the add as well?

[metropoliscomics]

Action 12 has a Batman image/ad at the end of the Superman story. I believe that Action 12 hit the newsstands before Detective 27.

probabably true. and the tec 15 has the 1st action ad. full page after the cover. i wonder how much that will go for? i am surprised no one jumped to make an offer for mine a while back when i had it for sale?

[aardvark88]

Action 12 has a Batman image/ad at the end of the Superman story. I believe that Action 12 hit the newsstands before Detective 27.

 

 

I believe there is only a Bat-man head shot at the end panel of the Superman story akin to the pre-hero More Fun #51 Spectre head shot panel.

i believe you are right. and i hear that Tec 26 says something like "next issue the Batman", not sure though

[twmjr]

Could anyone scan the Tec 26 and Action 12 Bats cameos? Also, didn't the Action 1 ad in More Fun 31 precede the Detective 15 ad by one week, and constitute the first published image of Supes?

[Yannis]

I am not sure about the publication, but I believe that the More Fun and Tec 15 hit the stands at about the same time (from what I hear). Regardless, the Ad 26, Tec 15 and MF 31 equally have the first public image of Superman. The only thing is that the Adv 26 and Tec 15 (being what they are) are still in more demand than the MF 31 (funny covers tend not to attract people as much as the other two). And probably will stay that way forever.
