A 15, 17, and a 116. There are no 10s and around 409 9.8s. A no-reserve eBay auction is probably the worst way to sell a book like that. Very limited to the number of potential buyers that find it in a 10 day period. Fixed price (with best offer) is the way to go in my opinion.

OtherEric Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Got this in today. All I'm looking for now is 8-10, which make the last three issues of Savage Sword look positively easy to find by comparison. I may not even bother with the 8 & 9, since I'm mostly focusing on the Roy Thomas issues. Randall Dowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jayman Posted March 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2019 A short lived title you don’t see to often, from 1958. Issue #2 with a neat purple werewolf cover.

I echo what @Randall Dowling said above and you should consider "cross pollinating" a bit with other Frazetta books up for auction to help draw further interest to the Creepy #15. There may be a very small amount of Creepy collectors caring to spend that type of cash on a 9.9 but there may be Hardcore Frazetta collectors willing to spread the cabbage for what is arguably one of the highest graded Frazetta Covers currently graded...

Popular Post Rune Posted March 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) I won an award last year and got the opportunity to get some books graded for free. I sent in my ST #1 reading copy and just got it back: This mag was kinda special, I bought it in June 2009. The seller told me he frequently visited The Studio in the 1970s: "By the way back in the 70's I owned a comic shop & used to hang around The Studio in NYC. That was a loft shared by Jeff Jones, Mike Kaluta, Barry Smith & one of my best friends Berni Wrightson. You would have loved it." I believe he's talking about Baltimore's first comic shop The Nostalgia Crypt in Reisterstown, Md, which he opened in 1973. I also asked him about the grade - his reply: "Honestly I don't know the grading system with numbers. When I was into this as a business in the 70's grading ran from poor to mint period. I used my best eye to give it a near mint. Pages are yellowing a little around the edges due to age ( 1971 ) is what I would have to say Hope this helps." He shipped it in a thin paper envelope, no padding at all, but magically it arrived totally unharmed. I was close to giving him negative feedback just for the truly horrible shipping. I guess this book has come a long way, happy to see it in a proper home :-) I also got ST #1 in 9.6 and 9.8, but there's still some special magic about this copy - and I'm happy for the 9.0 grade. I wasn't expecting more than 8.0, maybe 8.5. Edited April 26, 2019 by Rune Ken Aldred, The Lions Den, ThothAmon and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ron C. Posted April 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2019 Here is a book that I had not before seen in person. Epic Illustrated #nn (Sampler Edition). I was hoping to beat the only other one on the CGC Census (8.0), but am still happy to add this to my collection.
