sterlingcomics Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I would love to snag some DC treasuries one day. The storage of these appears to be a problem, though. I have enough of a hard time with the few magazines I collected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skypinkblu Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I have a big "sweater" box, There is room for both the Marvel and the DCs and I think I have most of them, they fit side by side. I have room in a closet, but they are made to put under a bed;) Where there is a will,l there is a way;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormboy Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 I was looking for something for a friend and found this on a shelf. Since this was originally Whitmans, I figured I'd post it. I don't think I've seen it in the thread. Love this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the deal with the price box on Giant Superhero Holiday Grab Bag in the upper right corner. It looks to be partially blacked out. If so, does it look like a sharpie or did it come from the printer like that? Thanks! Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have enough of a hard time with the few magazines I collected. They do sell bags and boards for treasuries, as well as boxes. That said, if you don't have enough to fill a box, the space is an issue. If these books flop around in a box they'll get damaged. I used empty boxes to fill the space for a long time. Plus the weight of the box is substantial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormboy Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 My contribution That's a great looking copy of Batman Hulk! Very tough in grade. I've purchased a couple eBay "NM"s that were actually Fine, so I still don't have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 That is a great looking stash there. I do wish that they built sturdy long boxes as the cardboard one just can't stand up over time when they handled on a consistent basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormboy Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 Thanks! Yeah, if they had a version of this box that was sturdier/thicker I would buy it. It's not quite as long as a long box though - about 12" x 17". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim thanks I think it was a marker used to black the (I assume) US price out, though I can't be sure as I've sold this lot a few weeks back Went for £100+ and I had another guy ask to buy too - the Superman V Ali is very hot low grade copies too Oz two = £40 2001 = £25 I shall report back on others I come across!

romanheart Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Thanks guys. I bought mine from a1-comics in Cali. Their service is impeccable. I was captured by the blue and green colours on this one. Still I don't think treasuries are for everyone. They are quite large and cumbersome. You can't really read them without causing stress damage to them. I read mine to death as a kid and they quickly become detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have to have newsstand fresh copies of these books I owned, or wanted to, and (like you) read repeatedly as a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
