What is your rarest acquisition this year?

[IngelsFan]

Re More Fun 48:

A very tough book to find

 

One of my top 4 wanted pre-hero DC!

[Dr. Love]

It took a long time, but finally I got a Fine. At the grade I like, and the prices these get, that's a one and done for me.

 

 

[Theagenes]

Since the thread title say "acquisition" and not specifically "comic" I'm going to cheat.

 

This is a poster of the 1894 stage production of H. Rider Haggard's "SHE" -- very possibly the only one left in existence.

If you're going to have just one representative example, then this is a pretty good choice - congrat's.

WOW! Stunning poster, and amazing that it survived. Very nice-thanks for sharing.

To say "AWESOME!" is an understatement!

That’s what I said when I bought my #16!

[Knightsofold]

Over the past few years, these 2 have were really tough for me to find.

What a cracker book

 

Hitler cover, overwhelming action, Bonnett's stamp and that Atlas logo that did not last long before morphing into a smaller and more familiar form,

 

No wonder it took a while to find - I'd be real reluctant to let that go.

My dad just loved Rider Haggard, so I've always had a soft spot for his books. That poster is just wonderful.

[Larryw7]

Probably this.

 

 

Love that one. I had to pay dearly for a copy about a year ago. Just like the More Fun cover.

 

Thanks. I got this one on eBay for a pretty good deal.

Almost impossible pre-hero DC:

 

 

TONS of great stuff on this thread, but I just love this cover. That SHE poster is sick too! Great job guys!

My big purchase of the year.

 

[Yellow Kid]

That Bugs Bunny LFC #8 is one of the nicest examples I have seen--it's a beautiful book!

+1, beauty.

[Flex Mentallo]

This seems like a tough issue, especially with a true red background. It presents well for the given grade.

Love seeing FH books with actual red on the covers!
