Coverless books

[meditech]

 

 

Hello!

I am wondering if there is any value to comics missing their front and back covers, but otherwise complete. Can covers be found and put on this? Can covers be made for them, maybe by a pro?

It seems a shame to throw them out because the story is complete. Some of the ones I just got in a yard sale are listed below.

Any thoughts/

thanks in advance

i think they can be worth maybe 5% of NM price if it's a key or something? probably less. you might get a buck or two for the older two books. the rest are good for reading, recycling, or maybe lining a bird cage.

If its key (amazing fantasy 15. ASM 1, brave and bold 28, JLA 1, x-men 1, etc.), then it's def worth saving (and possibly restoring depending on how you feel about restorations - aka purple labels - aka PLOD - aka purple label of death). Non-keys, probably not worth it. These books don't jump out to me as key, but I would research further.

I'm considering chasing down coverless SA keys and getting them slabbed. I love the opening splash page with the first introduction of the character alla TOS 39
