originalisbest Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Depends on the titles and completeness. Overall they look pretty clean! Early Archie, Supes, Captain America (even with piece out) are slab worthy, case by case basis. True comics, Popular comics, not so much. Post those issues on threads where you have a question, and you'll doubtless get advice, and probably offers as well. Good luck with the collection!

Yea, i am going to be slabbing the ones that look good plus the captain america and superman and some others. I feel it would probably be best to try and sell them slabbed. questions, what makes an issue a canadian copy? When looking up some, I came across a post from sparkle city that had a canadian copy of one of the books. Not sure how to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When looking up some, I came across a post from sparkle city that had a canadian copy of one of the books. Not sure how to check. Canadian copies can be tricky as some are Candian copies with a US equivalent (some EC's, other publishers) while some (early Dark Mysteries, etc., and all of the Superior precodes) are printed in Canada, but they're not broken out as Canadian copies, because they're all from Canada. Best guess I can offer is to have a copy of Overstreet handy to check, and most Canadian copies I believe will indicate their origins. Sometimes, it's as easy as noting a logo switch on the cover -- in EC's case, anyway. Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheetah Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The Boy Comics 4 is a nice Hitler, Tojo, Mussolini cover that you should get slabbed if it is a reasonable grade. ...uh, what kind of grade is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
