I won BEST ! Bronze AGE !

I won for the best Bronze set.Here is what CGC said !

 

 

mttemp Whitman Lady

In 1979, towards the end of the Bronze Age, the company known as Western Publishing was bought out by Mattel. Western had been publishing comics for years under its “Gold Key” imprint, which included Disney titles, and other comics aimed at younger readers such as Woody Woodpecker and Popeye.

 

The merger brought with it a change in the way Western distributed their titles. No longer for sale individually through the newsstand market, their comics were now sold only available through pre-packs from their Whitman division.

 

These rare Whitman books have been incredibly hard to find, especially in high grade, which is what makes this set by mtttemp so impressive. With 36 9.8s and 52 9.6s (out of a 183 book set) this book was obviously a labor of love that took a great deal of time and patience, and rightfully deserves the #1 winning slot for Bronze for this year!
