zzutak Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Here's my copy of Superman 146, one of my all-time favorite books. Just Love IT! The OSPG lists it as a classic cover; I believe CGC should have done the same on its label. I wonder why they didn't. I think it's fair to say that all SA DC collectors love this book, and in particular, your copy. What a beauty - about the nicest I have ever seen! Without question! Supe 146 is one of my all-time favorites as well. My own off-the-rack copy fell apart in the late-1960s after years of use (and occasional abuse) by me, my siblings, and my friends. Not even my father's masking tape could save it! It's a real treat to see such a bright copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current OSPG (Just got mine in from Amazon a couple of days ago) values the books at $425.00 in 9.2. I think a couple of years ago a 9.2 copy sold for about $1500.00 and the lone 9.4 copy sold for three grand. I know there has been renewed interest in the Superman titles, both Golden and Silver. I wonder what this copy would go for if it came to market. Just curious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Here's my copy of Danny's favorite Superman. Remember I was at your house about 10 years ago and you showed me your copy. A few years later you located a copy for me at the SDCC Not quite as nice as yours, admittedly, but I'm satisfied with it. Yours is a killer copy, though!

adamstrange Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I didn't realize that the LL 15 and Superman are more similiar to eachother than the Adventure, but now seeing all three like that it's obvious. Georgous copies of both books Ian, do you have a Lois 15 as well? That Superman 132 is awesome...those of us who know about SA Superman know it's a horrible book to locate above VG. Luckily, Foolkiller helped me out with Supes 132 or I'd still be hunting. I do know one board lurker with the quartet and will see if he's willing to start posting.

The text blurbs on this cover don't bother me at all -- not necessarily a classic cover, but definitely a classic issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnT Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Wow, a lot of action in this thread today! I've really enjoyed seeing these tremendous books. The only one of the four that I have is this Lois. Not the best copy, but I picked it up many moons ago because I liked the black background and the multi-panel design.

JohnT Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Okay, here's the real reason I came to this thread... Recent arrival from Ebay. Too bad about the reader's crease, but the colors are amazing, and I absolutely love the drawing by Moriera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
