O'Barr's "The Crow" love

Earl Shaw was at the Tampa show today. Since Earl's presence down the same aisle as me basically spelled my doom as a seller, I decided to hit his longboxes early on to salvage my day with some timely buying.

 

I did fish out a lot of cool stuff, but I think my hands down snag of the day has to be a Crow # 4 in dead NM+ for $3. I think its got a better then average shot at 9.8, which would make me one very happy JiveTurkey. :banana:

I hate you.

 

On a related note, it'd be really nice if Earl Shaw would come to the West Coast at some point.

I hate you too. I went through all of Earl's books in Atl a few weeks ago and saw a few beater and 2nd print Crow books.

And you passed on the 2nd print books? Do you know how tough those are to track down in high grade?

I think the Crow #1 is the only 9.8 SS copy so far?

WoW.

Nice haul!

 

They'll be another Caliber Presents 1 and two Deadworld 10's, though I'm not sure of the grades yet.

Thanks. My favorite is the SDCC book - O'Barr actually asked us (me and JJ who was witnessing) whether Don Martin was dead. When we confirmed it, he drew the crow on top of the Don Martin character's head and added the crow-esque makeup as well.
