Stevenrams Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Just in from Heritage. I've always wanted a nice copy... Congrats, Jeff. Finally picked one up. Looks exactly like mine right down to the PQ. Only I bought mine in 1993 so I'm sure I paid a lot less. It's funny about that book; there have been 8 9.2s in the census for at least the past 5 or 6 years--maybe longer and only one 9.4 which I recall went over three grand the last time it came to market. Again, a classic! SLR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 The 140's of Superman are the quintessential Superman of the silver age stories. Awesome copy Jeff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) Classic Silver Supes. Superman #149 The Death of Superman That 7.0 presents very nicely.

steelcity Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Just in from Heritage. I've always wanted a nice copy... Really nice copy. Back in 2000 I was looking for a nice CGC SM #146 but they were scarce back then. Marnin Rosenberg told me he had a NM- with nice pages that he had sent to CGC, with lots of other books. I think he told me it was his first time with CGC. Anyway, when the book came back it was only a VFNM with cow pages. I was disappointed but bought it anyway. With Marnin's wry sense of humor he put a sticker over the DC logo on my new #146. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 (edited) I'd say the 9.0 grade is about right from what I can see. If of course it had been published in 1941 instead of 1961, CGC would have graded it a 9.6. Nonetheless, nice copy!

Stevenrams Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Just in from Comiclink... Great book, Jeff. I wanted to bid on that book but just didn't have the funds for it at the time. Glad it went to a great guy and a true collector. SLR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenrams Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Believe it or not I submitted this book at SDCC 2012 and the book just arrived a couple of days ago. Man, that's six months. Also, the book was actually graded on 11/14/12. Oh well. Dealer called it an 8.0 due to the very light foxing on the back and a couple of very minor defects so I was happy with this grade.
