SGT. FURY SA LOT - #'s 1-23++ Original Owner Lot - 36 Books - PHOTOS ADDED

6 posts in this topic

I've got a nice low-to-mid grade lot of Sgt. Fury's for sale. This was an original owner lot I discovered stacked in an attic of an old house. As with many OO lots, these were stacked untouched for decades. The books on the outside of the "sandwich" have the most wear. In this case, it was sandwiched by the 1st ten books. So, while that makes them a little rough, the middle books were quite nicely preserved. All in all, this group is flat and attractive. The scans don't do them justice!

 

I've listed them below with strict grades, perhaps too strict on some. Overall, with the exception of a few, is a very nice lot, and flat. The first 12 are decidedly low-grade, but still nice solid books for the grade and look great in Mylar. After #12, the books take big swing up in grade. Many feel fresh and new with nice gloss and only a few spine ticks, corner bends, and tiny tears to show for sitting untouched for 40+ years. Some of the books in this lot are truly spectacular and I'm loath to part with them (14, 21, 41 to name a few). Overall, eye-appeal is high for this lot.

 

I want to sell this group as a lot, and not separately. OSPG value for these together is around $980+. Board members get 10% off I'm asking $880 for the group. Get a $25 discount if you send a money order instead of paypal. They will come bagged in Mylites2's and Gerber Fullbacks. Shipping will be $20 shipped priority with signature confirmation.

 

As usual, first :takeit: wins over any PM discussions.

36 Books

 

Runs & Individuals: 1-23, 31-33, 41, 46-47, 50, 52, 75, 80, 139, Annuals 2 & 4

 

I've tried to describe the defects which may not be immediately visible from the photos. If you have further questions, please let me know.

 

*NOTE: I'm note sure why, but photobucket is making all the scans look a little off from the originals. I'll be happy to send you the higher res pics on request, just ask. I promise you that these books look better in hand, much better.
