Nearly a 20 year pursuit comes to an end - The Nedor Heroes Are Complete 4 4

[telerites]

26 and 27.  The 27 was a raw purchase is an incredibly solid book.  I normally don't carp on CGC's grading but that was one I thought would be higher.  Nevertheless, a great cover and happy to have it.

And the 28 - a Gerber no-show but honestly, it was by no means, not the toughest to find.  Exciting 17 for me was the last one I needed and actually the net to last I needed to complete all the set. It is a low grader as much of the collection is but it presents well.  And such a great underwater Schomburg cover.

29 and 30.  Two great books and I love the cover to 29 - another raw purchase as most were.  30 is a tough book also.

31-33 with two 33s.  The higher graded copy has a tape pull and was surprised that it wasn't punished more harshly.  Some more great war covers.

What a great achievement, thanks so much for sharing all these with us.  As someone chasing runs of Startling and Wonder, along with picking up random issues of other titles when I can, I'm drooling over here.  And I can't wait to see your runs coming up!  I've seen a number of amazing achievement threads on here, and this has to rank right up with the best of them.

As you post these, there are so many issues that you very rarely see.  Makes your accomplishment in completing these runs all the more impressive!

34 thru 38 More great war covers and with 35 I went back to my android phone top take the pics.  Tried a borrowed digital camera but not as clear as the phone. The camera is more than a few years old though.

Thought I would post the 39 separately.  It has become a beast of book and I am so happy to have bought it when I did.  Still pricey but not crazy like today.  Bought raw and turned on target with what I had it pegged.

40 thru 43.  41 is one of my favorite war covers of the run.

 

 

[telerites]

Not sure how I managed three copies of 44. The middle one is a Bonnett's Book Store.

[telerites]

45 thru 49.  I loved the way Schomburg drew robots.  The classic Human Torch 23, Brick Bradford 6 and so many in what he did with the Nedors.  A Big Apple and a "D" (Crippen) ped in here.

[telerites]

50 thru 53 with two 52s.  51 is the first appearance of Miss Masque. and 53 is yet another Crippen.

[telerites]

Loaded up on 54 with four copies.

 

[telerites]

55 thru 59.  Not sure how 59 gets a classic bondage cover.  I like it but I personally wouldn't tag it as that.  Lots others from other publishers I think deserve it above this one

[telerites]

60 thru a couple of 62s

63 thru 66

[telerites]

From Jungle to Western I was fortunate to add some Rockfords and dupes to close out the series.  Actually I have Rockfords of the last three issues.

That Exciting 66 is an underrated book.  Beauty!

Considering there are 7 on the census having three graded is pretty impressive.

I hadn't realized that.  I haven't looked at census numbers on any of the books but would think there are some numbers.  Wait till we get to Wonder 9.
