TheEyeSees Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 For 'Amazing Mystery Funnies', I'd probably have to go with Vol. 1#4 (Everett gun in the crotch cover). I've seen more Vol 1#2's of late, and while the 2#4 (Sandhog cover - I used to own the Church copy) is really tough, I don't think either beats out the 1#4. I will back this up ... I've been trying to complete my AMF run, and the 1/4 is a beeyotch. Only seen one on ebay, and I backed down so Win could snag it (he would have blown my bid out of the water anyways!). That copy was probably a fair, with brittle pages. It will likely be the last AMF I need... down to about five issues. The AMF 2/1 is also tough, but not as impossible in my mind. I can't chime in on any Centaurs beyond AMF, Funny Pages (hero/serious covers only), Keen Detective Funnies or Amazing Man. I've kept my focus on the hero/serious issues of those books. If I went for the "funny" covers, I'd be broke! Toughest Funny Pages I own must be the December 1939 issue (vol3/#10) , with the Burgos cover. Meaning to get this pressed out some day... its got great pages... I know the KDF 20 is not a super-rare book, but it does seem to be rare in high grade. Funny how some issues are like that... unless, there are minty raw copies tucked away in private collections we don't know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool book, Jeff - I know of only 4 others (mine just recently purchased, and three other Boardies), so your B.W. makes 5. Those Star Comics can be very tough...

The only Centaur I currently own, never seen another decent copy available. Thanks for posting this as it's always nice to see copies of these HTF books! (thumbs u BTW: Your copy looks very sharp and clean for a 6.0 grade. Any reason why it would be graded so low by the boys at CGC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe there was a Windex for the Star run. I am quite sure that there was a Windex for the Amazing-Man and AMF runs. So, it would be greatly appreciated if somebody could repost it here.
