Stunning stuff from everyone!  Great looking back at those books, Cheetah.  I know you sold off your collection but I can't recall, did you keep any issue or issues that you just couldn't part with?

I sold them all.  If I kept a few I would have kept them all.    I finally sold the last of my jungles and jumbos about a year and a half ago.

wanted to share this in case you guys dont check my completed run thread.

Just got this back from CGC and I am thrilled!

9.4 white pages double cover!

The ink got printed offset on the cover as well, making it a rather unique book.

Here's an honorary Planet I wish I hadn't sold.

I love that cover, and was very excited to find it as an actual Planet!

Australian #15. It is the only copy I have ever seen, and I sent it to be graded.

Karl, these 2 books are just so cool!  I’m glad your double cover Planet 48 came back with such a high grade. Out of register and double cover.  I think it’s got to be the most desirable copy of 48 out there.

I collect the Australian versions of Planet. Any chance of a sale?

I am a bit late to The Planet #1 party as well . I first received Howard Rogofsky’s list in the 1960s and marveled at pages of old comics I had never seen or heard of , including a intriguing title listed as Planet Comics . I was in Las Vegas no old book or thrift shops to find comics and to tell the truth I had no idea what a Planet 1 looked like. I spotted a Planet 1 on Ed Dobolak’s list in 1970s bought it and was hooked . This is a meager coverless copy outer wrap missing but liked the stories and was hooked .
