Nice… I too obsessively check the census for certain key to me books and could tell you how many there are in each grade and would notice when a new one was stabbed.  Perhaps I am not alone in my neuroses.

If not for the ability to search by date added to the census on cgcdata.com, I wouldn’t be able to tell! That’s some real dedication you’ve got there.

This arrived today from a sales thread, book has a bit of a miswrap but Planets with black covers and white pages are a favourite

Super hard book to find without the miswrap. I love the White Pages!

Such an awesome cover. Probably by favorite of the Whitman covers (or 66…or 70…or 72 )

100% agree, still want a 66 and 70 though cause they are still pretty awesome.

Today's mail call, courtesy of @JustJimN.  Pictures don't really do these books justice.

And another strong result at auction for Planet 1!

I've been wanting an unrestored copy of Planet 1 for a long time.  I finally managed to pick one up!  This one was sold to me in a Voldy slab, but I wanted it in a CGC holder like all of its rivet brothers and sisters.  Just back from CGC.

Supreme, Spyder!!!

Superworld has a very nice raw #70.

Thanks for the heads up, def a nice book but I'm more of a 3.0-5.0 grade collector on the Planets. They get pretty insane in price after that grade point, well for my mediocre budget anyway.

Agreed.  That book is tempting, but also above my pay grade.

Second highest graded copy of Planet 15 coming to heritage.

Longtime lurker. Planet Comics were among the books that got me into serious collecting a number of years ago.   I dipped my toes back into Planet last year, picking up 2 issues. I'll see about some pic hosting, so I can share.

So....anyone ever hold a 'Sally Wharton' Planet?

Always nice to see another Planet enthusiast posting on the boards. Looking forward to seeing the pics!
