I know Batman is way more popular but there's 5 times more blue lable Batman #1s. I'll likely get roasted for saying this here, but I like the AA 16 Cover more...and given the relative rarity I'd rather have that one. You're not going to get roasted because I actually agree with you in this one. It's not every auction you see an AA 16 restored or unrestored. It's truly something special when one hits the market. szucchini and jabats 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Heritage description for the Bat #1 states " The issue is currently ranked #4 in value on Overstreet's Top 100 Golden Age Comics, but that could change within the near future, as it chases down the current #3 -- All-American Comics #16 " That can't be right can it, is AA#16 the #3 book in Overstreet? I thought everything else was a distant 4th to Action 1, Tec 27 and Supe 1? But I wouldn't be surprised if the AA 16 can't catch where the Bat 1 is now, let alone what the final price might be.

Not sure I would drop out especially on a book I wanted that should clear the artificial reserve by a mile. I can't see this book tanking but it does seems some got nervous and put the reserve in. I guess HA expects these type comics to be bid to within 90% of sell price in couple days sit stagnant for 3 weeks then another flurry at the end.

Thanks for posting - kind of what I thought with the Big 3 being far in front. My guess is that eventually AA16 drops down to at least 7th as Bat 1, Cap 1, and Marvel 1 all pass it in price.

Crowzilla Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 18 minutes ago, szavisca said: If you’re a math geek like me you’ll notice there’s something really odd about the way the value by grade scales for AA 16 in the OPG. In the lower grades the prices are skewed like silver age books. I noticed that in the Heritage listings where it lists the OPG prices. In 2.0 Bat 1 is almost double AA16, but AA16 is higher in 9.2, I think this is a nod to the rarity of the book in grade. Until the Bangzoom copy gets graded, we might not see another 9.0 universal copy. Might be one of the rare times where Overstreet has it right (not the price of course, which they rarely do - but the spread). szucchini 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty unusual to see a reserve in a Heritage auction. Can’t remember the last time I saw one — not that I don’t forget things! Reading the fine print on Heritage, I misremembered how they do this. I think they bring the current "bid" right up to the reserve amount, so that the next bid will exceed the reserve and potentially win the book. I believe they know all along which books will eventually have reserves but let the bidding run for awhile before implementing the reserve.
