Or has my good customer status already expired since that was back in the early 90's? 22 hours ago, Pickie said: I called them again. They remember you well and they kindly ask you to settle that invoice now. Oh drat, I knew I shouldn't have brought that up again. Just let Fishler know that my word is still good and I'll be sure to pay off my invoice once the market catches up to the astronomical prices he was so noted for charging back in those days.

Don't believe Jon was really that much into the mainstream D.C. and Timely GA titles, except for the keys, as time went on. Books like that were really left more to collectors like Ayman Hariri when he was compiling his "Easy to Buy If You Have Money" collection while Jon was busy compiling the true "Impossible Collection".

Technically that means you would own a Wonderworld 8 at a grade of 18.8. That would be worth a pretty penny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon had a complete run of Marvel Mystery among other Timelys. They were previously sold/traded over the years as he shifted focus.

Pickie Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) ... looking forward to the reading/studies as well ... On 24.05.2017 at 1:52 PM, Pickie said: Need one catalog in addition to my Gerbers. Whoever wants to sell after the show: I'd be happy to pay $100 + shipping (to Europe). FOUND! No more offers, please.

Sqeggs Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Having Berk write some of the copy certainly makes the catalog more interesting. Being offered $10K to back out of the deal for the Planet 1 cover? Whoa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
