Just a great closing on this article...

 

Fishler declined to say how much Cage paid for "Action Comics" No. 1 back in 1995. Another copy -- which went for 10 cents in 1938 -- was sold last March for $1.5 million.

 

He said the Cage book is still in near-mint condition.

 

"What surprised me is that it looked the same. It's very fine."

 

 

Did I miss it in the thread somewhere? Anybody know specifics about the book? For instance, is it unrestored?

 

Apparently it's near-mint. Or maybe it's very fine.

 

The ex-reporter in me can tell you how that happened. Reporter was thinking near mint. Steve said very fine. Reporters (and most of their readers) don't know how different the terms are to people on this board.

Regardless of the insurance,this book belongs to it's rightful owner Nick Cage.

 

Yeah ten years ago insurance paid out a lot less than current market value. I say let Cage write the insurance company a check and let him have the book.

 

I seriously doubt that's what will happen. The insurance company owns it now.

 

And they can sell it to me for cover price!

I'd sock it to the reporter more. He should've figured out the jargon and translated it into laymen's terms for the readers. Condition, condition, condition is kinda like location, location, location. With that said, the life of a daily/weekly reporter is something most folks have no clue about. It's so easy to get it wrong or miss the mark on occasion when you're cranking out stories.

Wish I found it.

Wish I found it.

 

ok. probably would mean you stole it too.

[Ringfinger]

Yeah, strike that comment.

[Dark Knight]

That's it.. I'm going to every single storage compartment in the SFV to look for the missing Tec 27..

Mr. Cage should have the option of buying the books back from the insurance company at the cost of payout plus annual inflation (not current fair market value).

 

He can't afford it.

Don't think the Action Comics #1 is his top priority at the moment.

 

Cage gets arrested after binge drinking in New Orleans.
