steelcity Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Posted this in the silverage Flash thread but......tough book to find in high grade. That background color is beautiful.

john72tex Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 If you are thinking of Flash, I know some of his 12-cent covers with the Reverse-Flash have about the same shade of purple on them-139, 147 and 153... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to think which other books might have featured the same? Is this close? The Jimmy Olsen is pretty exact. Well done, Silver. I was checking Superman #144, Adventure #271, Superboy #78, #86 but all are a bit different. Lois Lane #33 could match but I can't post it here as it's a 12c book. That Flash in 9.0 stands alone as the single best graded by far. It just shows how difficult some books are to find in grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would replace that Jimmy Olsen in a heartbeat with a better copy if I could find one. And while this is NOT a 10 center...I think it has that same color. Those purple books in high grade are just Yes, I realize that I have blasphemied the 10 cent forum with this lowly 12 center....but we were talking about cover colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
