(Although it should be "fewer than 10 copies" -- a pet peeve of mine! ) A lot of Baker St John romance books fall into this category. Here's one that has only one copy on the census (we were discussing these recently in the Baker thread): Fewer!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A.tor Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 my guess is the majority of centaurs are 10 or less, so just head over to my centaur a day thread (shameless plug) to see them, rather than cross posting and filling up duplicate space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricksneatstuff Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Many Bakers fall in this category. Tony can post better ones than I have but here is one that is very low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfcityduck Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I'm finding it a little funny that this thread is based on the assumption that if a book doesn't have a lot of copies on the Census it is "rare," yet most of the books posted on the thread are raw. jimbo_7071 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of mine will be raw. I had to pick a cut off number, and browsing the CGC census was what gave me the idea. It is funny, but we all know there's more books in the wild than are reflected in the census. Point Five 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big fan of the title, and spent 8 years collecting the run. Here's a link to a thread I made featuring the books: To sfcityduck's point, there are certainly far more raw copies than slabbed ones. But man, not an easy collect by any means. The mid-to-late issues are particularly tough. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what you are writing here, but the thread isn't about "rare" comics. Some might be, but maybe the intent here is to call-out collectors to submit their books in order to help populate the census and create a better/more accurate report?

I just wanted to pose the question, see other posters' books, and discuss them. While we don't know how many copies of a book exist if ten (or fewer) are listed in the census, if there are fifty (or whatever number) listed we know for sure there's at least that many.
