Is that copy as clean and glossy as the picture shows it?

[Buck Biggins]

Senation Comics 101

This is my second copy from Ted.

 

Buck, I see that you are Doubling Your Pleasure...why you greedy SOB!

 

STEVE

 

Using for trade if someone has another issue I need.

[sacentaur]

Is that copy as clean and glossy as the picture shows it?

 

Yes (white pages, too).

 

This one is rather nice, as well...

I had the Sensation Edgar Church/Mile High run for about 15 years. I had #2-33 plus many other MH's, 66 MH issues total in that run. My favorite covers were #3, 8, 13, 15-22, 25, 26, 40, 51, 71-74... hell they are were all great!

That's a fantastic run. Do you regret selling those books?

 

I regret everything!

Like Steve, I don't have many, but I like them! Here's the 2nd issue:

 

[sacentaur]

I see more copies of Sensation 1 than I do of the other low number issues.

 

Here's the Crowley copy of Sensation 7:

[CentaurMan]

Beautiful! I agree that the low-number books are tougher than #1 (but that's probably the case for almost any series, with #1 having a solidly higher print run and being kept more often).

 

Here's #4:

Here's #4:

 

 

Nice copy- How long have you had that book?

 

Also, how many of the Sensation books have Wonder Woman as a portrait/headshot like yours above. Has to be more than 3 I would think without looking.

 

I also agree about seeing Issue 1 more than any other of the single digit books.

True, but I just LOVE Sensation #1. Such a cool book. I need to get one, haven't had a copy in a long time.

[Buck Biggins]

My newest pickup. It just came in today and is in a nice presentable midgrade.

 

[sacentaur]

That's a real looker for a mid-grade, Buckoo (here's hoping it doesn't have a major mouse chew out of the back cover!).

Are you still talking about that? Man, I was over that a while ago.

Nice copy- How long have you had that book?

 

A good while. I got it at a small Boston comic convention in the late '90's from Vincent's Collectibles. Vincent sure would come down on price if you asked him, and his grading was nice and tight. I'd say that experience really helped launch me into GA collecting. I got this one from him too on that same day:

Yup - sell me a Larson and make me feel better!

 

(meanwhile, I'll console myself with this...)

Are your Sensations from the same collection. They all seem very clean, bright, glossy and fresh. Very nice.

[CentaurMan]

All of Steve's books seem clean, bright, glossy and fresh, but we established a while back that it's actually his magic camera which creates that effect. In real life his books are brittle.

If I send him my books think he'll take my pictures?

One of these days, this little sign is going to work....

[sacentaur]

No - actually they are separate pickups here and there.

 

They all seem very clean, bright, glossy and fresh. Very nice.

 

Thanks Buck (they're unrestored with white pages, too) - glad you enjoyed the scans.

 

As far as my so-called 'magic camera', just log on to the Ronco website and anyone can get one for themselves. The camera does dramatically improve the look of the subject, but its 'magic' is not restricted just to comics....I took a picture yesterday of Kirstie Alley in a bikini and the resulting photo made her look as skinny as Gwyenth Paltrow.
