How long after Tec 36 was Tec 38 and Bats 1 ?? How long before was Tec 27 ?? (yes I could google but whats the fun in asking someone who knows off the top of their head)

 

 

Tec 36 was February 1940

Tec 38 was April 1940

Bats 1 was April 25th 1940 (there is an advertisement in Tec 39)

Tec 27 was April 1939

 

 

I think I am correct on these, but somebody should google to make sure.

The plod 1.8 Tec 29 was one of my former copies. Here's a bad scan of it seven years ago when it was a 1.5 slight back then and had a trimmed CF. Not sure how the CF is now "untrimmed" as a 1.8 plod. (shrug)

I believe it's quite possible that CGC simply missed the trimming on the CF the second time around and that there was nothing nefarious done by the submittor of the book. (shrug)

could be. I bought the book raw from Jamie Graham at SDCC 2009 and submitted the book myself at that show. The CF was trimmed (crookedly) with scissors and it came back accordingly on the notes. Perhaps the last/current owner cracked it out and submitted it without the label and got lucky they missed it.

I have around 10K (could go a little bit higher) to spend on one book. What are my options in this price range for a Detective 38 or a pre-Robin with a Batman cover? I prefer restored books so I am looking for grade ranges and on which issues.

 

Also, there's a blue label 1.5 Tec 33 coming up for auction. Is that a book that is obtainable in the 10K range?

Not likely. A CBCS Restored 7.5 Mod copy sold earlier this year for 15K and and a CGC Restored 6.0 Ext sold last year for 14K.

 

There are actually 2 1.5s coming up for auction.

A 1.5 Tec #33 was barely obtainable (if at all) for $10K two years ago. I know because I passed on one for more and regretted it.

 

Damn you, buyer of the Tec #33! :mad:

Probably the CC copy. The HA copy will likely go for more.

???

 

A 1.5 "Slightly Brittle" copy of Tec 33 went for $12.5k back in Dec., 2013.

 

Both copies will likely do a lot better than that.

Looks like Metro just listed a Tec 31 5.0 and a Tec 33 8.0 :o(worship)

 

Metro Tec 31 5.0 copy has a BIN of 110K. The 33 8.0 has a BIN of 150K.

 

Do you have a link for these 2 books? hm

 

It looks like my Search skills on the internet leaves a lot to be desired. :boo:

 

Scan for the 31 is up.
