1940's Batman UK Reprints K. G Murray/Morrison & Gibb

I recently got a copy of the July 1954 Batman 50 (6d UK version, from what I have read, the Australian ones were priced 8d). The cover is a reprint of June 1954 Batman 84.

 

I was wondering what these UK reprints are worth, they're certainly rare, but are there collectors out there for these. I'm not a batman collector, but it seemed relatively cheap, and I don't own any old comics, so it was a bit of a random purchase.

Almost always a market for scarce Batman stuff. Maybe do a search on eBay.uk?

Thanks for the response, I searched eBay, I can't find any, for sale or sold. Not from the 40's or 50's or issues below 100...

 

I'm gonna keep hold of it, will see if any others come up and maybe start trying to collect them.

 

Was just intrigued, as it was hard to find any information with regards to value.

Heh! 5 bucks in 9.4 for a comic from the 50's! I don't think so.

Reprint or not, that is a big fail on the part of comics price guide.

I picked up a few higher grade ones that sold on Ebay about 6 years ago for about $60-80 each if I remember correctly. I cant recall the issue numbers, but they are the UK printings.
