When you look at the quality of the ungraded books that are around, it makes me wonder what the census will look like in 10 years.

I'm pretty confident my books won't have an impact on the census. :)

Heritage sold a ST 73 8.0 and a JIM 80 7.5, but I don't know who has them.

There is a JIM 63 9.0 in the upcoming comiclink auction

 

And Adam Strange has a bunch I think over 20 if I remember. You can see his if you go back some pages.

 

Anyone else?

Does anyone what happened to the Pre-hero Marvels from the White Mountain collection. I remember reading in the Comicbook Monthly update that they sold for 6 x guide but it never said who to.

They were not sold all at one time and I don't recall the story in CB Monthly but if you provide the issue date or some notes from it I may be able to provide more info.

 

Here are some of the ones that have made it into my hands (2 are not WMs).

I keep hearing how there are no exceptional copies of these books. Seems hard to believe when you look at this thread. Museum quality books right there.

Thanks, guys! It took a while to put those and my others together and it wouldn't have happened without the assistance of a few friends and large dose of luck.

Since there's no WM List (until the Pedigree Book comes out :juggle: ) not that many folks knew that these were around. The pre-hero's have always had a reputation for being difficult to find and that definitely fits my experience. More copies will show up, but I never expect there to be very many of any of the issues in high grade.

I know of another "cat" that has a book or two that might fit that description. :whistle:

It's hard to imagine...but when the WM's surfaced ,the pre heros weren't all that popular...and were very cheap in the guide. A hundred bucks could pick up a REAL nice copy of most. When I first started collecting them in the early 90's I was snagging solid fines for 25 to 30 bucks a pop...but they were hard to find. They still are in fine or better. Even though Stan recycled the same 3 or 4 stories over and over, I still love finding one that I haven't read. GOD BLESS...
