Johnny545 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 It's only expensive collecting pre-heroes if you manage to win one... Fact! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAmazing R.J.S. Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I finally got my hands on this book, best $100 Bucks I ever spent on e-bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvel_runs Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Thanks guys. I got it on the Boards. I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did. All of the Pre-Hero collectors must be currently broke. Great copy! That or a few of them already have one in grade or better. It is tax season, and some of us who have to write a check this month may be out of the market for a bit. Maybe you can thank Uncle Sam for that great pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seredynskib Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Does this book count as "Pre-Hero" Marvel? I've always wondered because some people consider Dr Droom to be a "hero." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I think everyone would consider that book a prehero as it pre-dates FF1. Droom is more... phantom stranger than captain america. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I am firmly in the "pre hero" camp there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysterio Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 How does this thread fall to page 4? Here is my latest pre-hero buy, from the latest Clink auction. Got it for $50, which was the exact amount of my tracking bid on it. I'm glad I got it, as #22 is a tough book that I rarely see at all, let alone in any sort of decent grade. This is the first copy I've owned, and will eventually be upgraded to a 6.0 or better when I find one. Anyone know anything about this Westport Collection it came out of? Based on the sheer volume and variety I'm guessing that this is just the latest collection that Clink got a hold of and is liquidating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always liked the cover too. I just wish it was easier to find a copy. Maybe it's just me, but this has always been one of the tougher TTAs to find. I just don't ever see that many for sale, and the surrounding numbers don't seem to be nearly as difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 You are right that TTA # 22 is one of the more difficult issues to obtain in higher grades. I finally picked up a nice raw copy from the Moondog PH collection. I am going to have it slabbed to join with the rest of my registered TTA PH set. Probably 7.0-7.5 at best and I am very happy to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
