Hepcat Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 Why do you all keep mocking me with the one issue of Action I don't own from the last 54 years?!! Hmmmm. Maybe we should start an Action Comics 300 Club thread. The issue is certainly popular enough.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenrams Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) I love the "Now 10 cents" at the top of the book!! It's the beginning of a new era for the long-running title. Edited April 28, 2014 by Stevenrams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Here are a couple lower grade Lois Lane books I picked up a while back when my LCS was having a buy one get one free sale. BTW: I don't think those books are that low of a grade; they look quite nice and very collectible to me. And you can't beat a two-for-one sale. I'm a big fan of the title, too.

steelcity Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I love the "Now 10 cents" at the top of the book!! It's the beginning of a new era for the long-running title. Bright and clean looking example of a very difficult book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Superman 76 and WF 71 have long been books I wanted to acquire. I think I missed out on ever getting a SM 76 at a reasonable price as the Batman/Superman movie has had it's effect on that book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solarcadet Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I love the "Now 10 cents" at the top of the book!! It's the beginning of a new era for the long-running title. One of my favorite Goldens.... Even the foreign editions have jumped up in price. The Australian edition used to be a $5 reprint all day then recently sold for $465 Beautiful 5.5 you have. Im hoping i can squeek out a 4.0 my copy was from Mark Waid's private collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenrams Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 2nd appearance of Krypto!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Third appearance of Krypto. Took me a long, long, time to find the first three appearances of Krypto in decent grades or at least grades that present well and were affordable.

steelcity Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 All three are nice copies to have in your collection. Always pleased to see your books. The search for presentable DCs from the mid 1950s can be both frustrating and rewarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelcity Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Adventure Comics 232 deslabbed by the seller (CGC 8.0 OW). Been looking for this book for a very long time, too. Pretty much every issue of Adventure Comics from the mid 1950s has an impressive cover. Your #232 is very nice indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozentundraguy Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I love the "Now 10 cents" at the top of the book!! It's the beginning of a new era for the long-running title. Awesome copy of a very tough book Steve. In retrospect it seems hard to believe that Superman and Batman shared the Worlds Finest, title but in different stories for so long.

Stevenrams Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Thanks guys for your generous compliments on the books I posted. My wife especially appreciates it as well for she finally figured what was wrong with our photobucket. I'll post some more as time permits.

Stevenrams Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I wanted a 6.0 for this book but this CGC 5.5 with OW PQ fit the bill. It has a very clean spine, a feature very hard to come by for this book in this grade. It has a few other defects but I'll take those over a messed up spine that's hard on the eyes. It also was very affordable and I love the PQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
