GA PBOD

[tth2]

Thought I'd try posting a PBOD on the kindler and gentler GA boards. Just got this back from CGC. To give credit where credit is due, I bought it raw from Metropolis a few years ago. For some reason, my wife actually noticed this one, maybe because it's not a superhero cover, and it was cool explaining to her why the book only has one staple because of the time period in which it was printed.

That's the highest grade WDC&S < 100 I've ever seen, certified or not .

Would easily sell for $2,000+ on eBay if you were ever to be so inclined...

On second thought, $3-4,000 is probably more accurate in this case - could

go even higher.

Thanks hkp, I'll keep that in mind, , although I think the multiples that high grade Duck books have been realizing have been pretty poor lately, so I don't know if it could really achieve that price. Anyways, no plans to sell any of my Ducks anytime soon.

 

At the time, Metropolis showed me about 5 or 6 beautiful raw WDC&S's, all below 100. I cherry-picked the best 2, this one and a #85, which I'm waiting to get back from CGC too (I finally decided to submit both of these because I happened to be submitting some other comics that I planned to sell). I'm probably jinxing myself by even talking about it...

 

And thanks to everyone else for your kind comments!

A book like this would be worth around $2,500 to me personally, but since it

(to my knowledge) is the highest graded CGC copy for the entire run up to

#100, I suspect some of the competition might go higher.

Just got the WDC&S #85 back from CGC, and I'm happy to say that Steve B and Co agreed with my assessment!
