50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 OK, I can start the story this way. A few Saturdays ago I was taking my usual walk before the kids get up and I was watching the bidding on the Heritage November Signature auction Four Color #62 on my Iphone. This is a book I had wanted to pick up for quite some time, and is only one of four Barks Duck Four Colors I need to finish out the run (9, 29, 62, 159.) I believe I bid the book up to $525. before commission. Time was running out and I thought about bidding again to $550. but did not. I continued my walk looking at the price a few times and it went up to $550. I did not realize that the next bid had to be $600. at that point, which made me feel really dumb for not bidding up to $550. Anyway, I continued walking getting closer to home when the thought occured to me to e-mail Busted Flush and ask, "Are you bidding on Frozen Gold?"

BustedFlush Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Obviously 40yrs has lost his marbles. His Frozen Gold marbles!?! News within days. Photos within weeks. A third Boardie is involved... More to come as the year dwindles to nothingness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJD Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Much as I like getting the odd high-grade and/or big ticket book, sometimes it's the little buys that hit the spot. I got this one in today. Cost me less than $10 all up, and I really like it. This Barks cover is a gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Picked up this one in a big stack of beat up comics. A little photo shop was done to repair a crease that was inflicted after purchase. Like these too but story is incomplete in WDCS 38. They are Fun comics to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Picked up this one in a big stack of beat up comics. A little photo shop was done to repair a crease that was inflicted after purchase. Like these too but story is incomplete in WDCS 38. They are Fun comics to read. Possibly my favorite WDCS cover, one of my favorite Walt Kelly covers. Great characterizations on the dwarfs and duck! Yours looks like a copy in the the kind of condition I'll pick up some day. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Jack, I used to be picky about my Ducks but now I am happy to get a couple of filler issues to help complete the run. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
