Supes Golden Record Reprint Set, slab comic? or keep set whole?

[Ze-man]

Hello, I would like to get all of your advice on this.

I have a Golden Record Superman set from 1966.

 

Is it the same as the familiar F.F. JIM reprints etc.. ?.

As this does not reprint an exact comic # , but rather it looks like a "special" in the box comic issue. I am not sure

 

Any info you have on this item, and as to whats its its worth might be, please share your info.

 

Also should I slab the comic to preserve it? or keep the set together "as it is?" in its box.

 

I will try and post a few pix to show you the set, and comic.

Or get someone to host a few photos for me.

 

Keep in mind I only have a digital camera and any glare, color loss you see is due to flash's glare off comic.

Thanks,

What all is in the SUPES set? I don't have that one.

The reason I ask is because I have the BATMAN RECORD SET which came in a red color album box. Unlike the FF, Avengers, Spider-Man etc. which showed a picture of the comic on the album jacket. The Batman set was a plain red album box and inclosed with the record is a Batman comic, flicker ring, poster, and Batman Club Membership card.

 

Is the Superman one like the Batman one?

 

I actually disagree with the OVERSTREET discription of the two record sets. At the time they were originally sold they were called BATMAN CLUB SET's and SUPERMAN CLUB SET's.

 

These are often confused with the GOLDEN RECORD comics. I wish someone would straighten that out.

Anything for a pal. Here are the pix of Zeman's Superman set. I think it's really cool. Could find NO info on this on the web or in Overstreet (not that it's not in there somewhere!).

AWESOME! I never seen the SUPES one before. Its very much like the BATMAN one that I have. The Superman comic looks to be in great shape. My Batman one wasn't and its the 2.5 graded one in the census. A couple of questions...

Was there a flicker ring with the SUPES?

Also noticed the SUPES box has a nicer cover. BATs is just plain red. Unless I got ripped off way back when and got one that was missing the picure.

Once again

THANKS REDHOOK

 

I am again in your debt.

I now owe you 3 chickens, 2 goats.. but your stil not getting my BUD LIGHT!!

 

And nope on the flicker ring, came with what it said on box cover.

 

And as to my other question?

Should I slab the comic ?

 

And yes I washed my hands in boiling water, and an alcohol rinse before I touched the comic!

That's a really nice piece!

 

And as to my other question?

Should I slab the comic ?

 

I would say no. I think that the set is very cool and desirable as is.

[Red Hook]

I agree. Don't slab the book....keep it all together.

 

Steve B.......can you guys construct a six-foot-square CGC graded custom airtight chamber with an inner well with air conditioning and airlocks that Zeman can enter and exit to view this box set?

 

Think Big!

Redhook!!, you are one silly .... Mo...Fo...

 

 

And if you are going to all that trouble to build me a CGC chamber, I would rather it be a tomb, so I can sleep forever with my precious in my CGC graded "RD" condition.

RD = Really Dead

Don't slab it. That set deserves to stay intact.

[FFB]

Redhook, you kill me.
