Bomber-Bob Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Here's mine, its colors are not quite as deep as Sammy's looks. Bob, I don't remember seeing it, but you must have a nice copy. Another great looking copy ! I am envious, I don't have a copy. In my lifetime I only had one low grade copy. It's really a tough book to find.

Sam I am Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Everyone at my LCS felt the same way when they saw it. With less than 50 Blue labels on the census, it rarely comes up for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 I only have a CGC 6.0 Nothing wrong with 6.0's - that's the grade of the majority of my books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenrams Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Here is my 20 fresh out of the box. (thumbs u Wow, an incredible book ! Congrats. Don't know anything about Registry but I do know that's one heckava copy of an underrated book. Always enjoyed reading Rip Hunter when I was a kid.

Well, there is nothing left to buy now for others Showcase collectors but it was really fun ! Thanks BPLZ! I am glad to hear that others enjoy the chase just as much as I do. As far as finding books, that is part of the beauty of this set. I really gotta kick some rocks over this year in order to complete a 100% run. And of course, pick up any upgrades I can find/afford too along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 well done boba!! Hey Joey, come out and take a bow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roulette44 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Chris narrowed the gap a ton between the sets, for sure! TeddieMercede still gets the real winner's nod, but all in good fun. My SC20 is a 7.0 as well, and it's just super hard to find better. I do have a few undercopies as well. As for the showcase run, i'm waiting for a bunch of slabs still, I do have the entire run, but need to get back some slabs and upgrade others! I really want to upgrade the 8,13,14 (currently cgc 5.5,6.0,6.0), but did find a beautiful 80 recently! Next year, I want the superman 1-423 run (yeah right). #2 might be possible, but the dentist's set is so freaking sick (and with the #1 not even slabbed), makes my head spin!! Thanks guys, always fun! Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 If anyone needs one of these, now's the time to get it while I'm not right in the head http://www.ebay.com/itm/201368652716?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 . . . thus I post an inappropriately self promotional, uh, post.
