MusterMark Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Thanks, I've stopped writing the column for Comic Book Daily due to an editorial conflict but we are revamping our "whites" website, Canada's Own Comics ( http://canadasowncomics.com/ ) and the new iteration should appear sometime in July. I'll be doing my column there and we'll have a "whites" forum or two on the site as well and some other features. As for the WECA Comics Price Guide we're working on, the consensus was that we should plow ahead on it and get it out by Labour Day for Fan Expo in Toronto and not wait for the Clink auctions. No matter when we put the guide out, the prices will be outdated on the day that it's published like any other price guide and since it's main purpose is to be the first real informative checklist of these books we shouldn't be hung up on the prices listed as the main thing. What Clink auctions? Are there more Whites coming up in any Clink auctions? What month of auction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarvaj Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Am I mistaken or do all the CLINK WECA books put up for the August auction have the faulty new CGC holders? I guess this won't have any effect on the auction because you can just send them back in for re-slabbing. But certainly puts a wrinkle in it. Maybe CLINK will still send the books back to CGC to get the fixed slabs since there seems to be enough turn around time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 They do have the holders that had the issues yeah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecgt Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Here is an oddball piece. This was published by the Monitor in Montreal during the era that Hugh McCormick was the publisher. It is an anti-socialist comic that attacks "socialist England." It mentions Aneurin Bevan as the Minister of Health, so this was published after the Labour Party won power in 1945.

sarvaj Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 A few of us have noticed two glaring CGC slabbing errors in the books being offered for the August CLINK auction. First, the Victory #1 is not a comic book. It is a Canadian pulp with a Ted Steele cover. The CGC description should list it as a pulp. Second the listed and CGC labelled Freelance #1 is actually a Freelance Vol. 1 No. 12. Bidders and buyers who only know a little about golden age Canadian books are probably going to be misled and bid inappropriately. Hope somebody from CLINK or CGC reads this and gets it fixed before the start of the auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmyst Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Sarvaj - The Freelance was rectified already; perhaps you didn't notice yet that it had been removed from the auction a few days ago. It was sent to CGC for proper labeling as issue #12. A simple mistake on their part, as the issue # is clearly printed on the back cover. When very little (or no) data is available on rare books (i.e. the Victory) then of course corrections or amendments can/will be made along the way - CGC has certainly done that pretty much all along, whenever the data is made available to them they didn't previously have. In the meantime, please feel free to PM or call if you have important information to share. Thanks. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
