kimik Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 17-20K or so Nice. The Mound City copies are not pressed, right? That might help the price go a bit higher than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foolkiller Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Since I already have two offers from two different dealers at $8500 for my Show 22 7.0, I think the 8.0 will be up near $20k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 Well, this might impact the Mound City prices a bit: Just got back to the hotel from the preview. Nice venue. Well organized. Good to see all of the regulars at the auction preview. As far as the books go, I'll say that I don't believe that CGC graded these books accurately in at least 50% of the books. Foxing, sun shadows, humidity damage, rippling, large production/bindery tears... All in 9.2 to 9.6 books. This is a very, very nice collection. Just not as nice as CGC graded many of them.

Have we seen your 7.0 I don't believe the club has ever seen Foolkiller's 7.0 off-white copy yet. It would be a pleasure to see Foolkiller's copy since it's in the 6.0 and above club (one of the few which we have not seen yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent I have seen the scans of the SC22 Mound City copy and it looks very accurate as an 8.0. But not being able to examine in person...I will just have to speculate the grading is consistent with SC22. I do agree that books in the 9.2-9.6, CGC are sometimes inconsistent.

Very nicely centered, sharp colors, and great off-white pages...no kidding why some dealers have offered $8500 for it. Also, the light stress line in Green Lantern's left arm is keeping it from being a 8.0. I value this great eye appeal off-white copy between $10k-$12k and welcome to the five figure club.

conditionfreak Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I predict even a low grade 1.0 or 2.0 will go for a grand in two years just like the low grade AF#15.
