Wayne-Tec Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 (edited) Superman #1 CGC NG Coverless $14,200 Cap #1 CGC NG Coverless $9,556 I think LT-OW page quality held the Superman #1 back a little. Still, Cap #1 sold for 67% of what the Superman #1 sold for. There has been some talk about Cap #1 eventually replacing Superman #1 as the third most valuable book in our hobby. Personally, I don't think that will happen. But is the gap getting shorter? Edited September 15, 2017 by Wayne-Tec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne-Tec Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Hey guys, I have been saving scans and photos of every copy of Captain America Comics #1 I can find to add to my archive. I've combed through this thread, past sales through major auction houses, eBay, etc. If anyone has scans/photos they'd be willing to share, please post them here in this thread or shoot me a PM. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geofan Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Greg's 3.5 copy was originally my copy, which I auctioned off in 2009 through heritage for a measly $11,950... boy what a mistake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's two I could find quickly on my computer... I'd have to check my archives. I'm on my mobile right now. I've done this not just for Cap #1 but for others: Action #1, Tec #27, Marvel #1, etc. Not just slab scans but raw copies and photos from old price guides and books. Anywhere I can find I scan/photo, chances are I'll archive it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had one missing the cfold for about 5 years before selling it to Mike Carbonaro. Did well with it at the time Here is my current copy in all its purple label glory!

Chicago Boy Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Curious as to people's thoughts on Bucky's cameo on the cover--you like or no likey ? Why ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never preferred Bucky on the cover as it is, but I feel Goodman signed off on Bucky in a good effort to rally support (hence, Sentinels of Liberty Club) amongst the kid's/teens at that time for the war...
