Popular Post Lee Enterprises Posted May 11 Popular Post Share Posted May 11 At this point, I'm struggling to think of anything Bronze Age that's "heating up". I'm trying to take advantage of the cooling down because I have so many holes in my collection. littledoom, whetteon, 1Cool and 9 others 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Neal Adams Batman and Tec continues to sell well and for higher prices on a lot of them. I want them to drop finally as I am considering rebuilding 9.4+ WP runs again. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tec-Tac-Toe Posted May 20 Popular Post Share Posted May 20 (edited) I meant to add these to: This Week in Your Bronze Age Collection!! Apparently, I'm having a "Bad Day at Black Rock" I purchased these a few weeks ago, and was able to "rush" scan them yesterday. Lousy scans; I have to scan them again.

I'm trying to take advantage of the cooling down because I have so many holes in my collection. I forgot one category that is absolutely on fire...almost any Bronze Age issue from a popular title in CGC 9.8. Whenever I do some quick math, I come back to the conclusion that I could buy an entire run of Bronze books, or at least a big chunk, within a title I collect in 9.4 or 9.6 for the price of just one 9.8 book. I know some collectors are battling it out for top CGC Registry sets or just like to have top population books, but wow the final prices are unreal. comic_memories 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mintcomics1 Posted May 25 Popular Post Share Posted May 25 I know it's a broad generalization, but it seems like Bronze Age horror, especially DC titles like House of Mystery or Unexpected are doing very well. Recent sales on early Bernie Wrightson covers in high grade are consistently approaching or over 4 figures. Secrets of Haunted House #5 in CGC 9.4 sold for over $500 last month, and that's a bit of a later Bronze book from '76. https://www.ebay.com/itm/145700633598 It sort of runs parallel to 70s classic rock - it was a very impressive era in terms of the quality of work being produced at that time.

MAY1979 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) ^ if that is the type of book sellers are now pinning their hopes on for market revitalizationthen all is already lost. Now that so few rubes remain, stuff like that has the hot (actually warm) lifespan of a gnat. Edited July 29 by MAR1979 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for sub-set of collectors 1) No Newton Rings 2) No Inner Well warping 3) No Inner Well notches to crush books 4) Near zero risk of Shaken comic syndrome. Highly recommend you read through - then check all books you may have that were slabbed so far in 2024. Check for bending due to inner wells, as well as back of book denting/crushing due to the absurd too short top and bottom bars that in effect create 4 deadly notches.
