namisgr Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 My latest...... Hah! That a soda, Brad? Because if it is, we can all imagine how yummy that water dredged from the ol' green river must taste in a carbonated beverage... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Hook Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Just in from Mile High.....a nice books with lots to offer......A GR pedigree, the hideous DS Collection designation, a Curt Swan goofy Jimmy Olsen cover....not bad for $46.50 including shipping. I'm happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Nice looking book Hook but man those lame DC covers just make me laugh. And its not like it was a short period where DC illustrators/writers seemed to have lost their mind, this stuff went on for years, decades.

Red Hook Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Tell me about it. But they were fun. I didn't buy them back then, but in retrospect they are very much of their time....plus Curt Swan was pretty rockin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Brad, that is a seriously sharp-looking 9.0. The black looks so... so... pristine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Thanks. I might call for the graders notes on this, just curious why it didn't grade higher. I also realized it's the only copy of this book ever graded. Not super-surpised.... JO is not what you'd call a hot title, but other books around it in sequence have 7, 8 copies graded.

Nice book... funny cover... Is that top staple still attached?.. it looks to be recessed a bit at least. Might be what dropped it down?

namisgr Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 The whiteness preservation of the covers of the Oakland books is impressive - although it is certainly easier to find bone white books from the late Silver and early Bronze than from the beginnings of the Silver Age, I think it is still not very common. Speaking of whiteness preservation, I acquired my first example from the Curator collection. The whites on the front and back covers are as nice as I have heard others rave about. I'd love to see more books from this collection in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
