Great pick-up Surfer. Marvel #5 is one of the keystones to any Timely collection.

an "issue" at the bottom of the spine/back cover, but overall a pretty nice unrestored off-white paged book

Is this one of the "Int" books that there was a thread started about?

Nice book Peter. It ended pretty strong for a 8.5, which surprised me a bit. I thought the top for that book would be $1,100 or so.

 

Let's hope Subbys aren't suddenly becoming "hot" or I'll never get close to putting together an even partial run. 893crossfingers-thumb.gif

Actually I thought I picked this up cheap. It bascially went at 9.0 sales from 2002 and 2004 and in general prices are probably pretty flat for some time now. I don't think there is too much focus on Sub-Mariner books yet but its bound to come once a fresh crop of high grade copies hit the market. Also I thought Jacquet connection adds alittle more to its value, I know it makes this book special for me. I expected you to be all over this book for sure (unless you already have a copy?). BTW I miss my issue #35 I sold you. frown.gif

This book is from an original owner collection, and I did not see the "Int" thread.......so, I guess I'm not much help here tongue.gif

This book has been "reserved" for sale to the Detective27Kid once it comes back from CGC......wonder how she'll grade with the minor bottom spine damage but overall very nice condition? 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

I thought I'd wait for one of the 9.0 copies to surface. I'm also trying to stay away from books with CRM/OW pages for right now, though that might change moving forward.

 

So far, I've only added two books to my Subby run this year, so being picky has its downside (namely, its taking forever to find suitable copies).

 

I miss my # 35 too. Its currently in my safe deposit box and I just don't get to look at it much anymore. frown.gif
