Agreed -- Your FF #49 and FF #50 might be among the nicest ones I've seen of the pence issues! I know Tghutcn here has a very nice FF #49 UKPV, too, as well as SS #15 UKPV. Haven't seen copies of these this nice before. Edited August 20, 2021 by Pantodude Tghutcn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batmiesta Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Off topic slightly, but does anyone else find this criminal? Horrible sig on a NM/M copy. Silver Surfer 1 9.8 Turnando and Kevin.J 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmtg9 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Seeing Stans signature on books from the last few years of his life makes me feel very uncomfortable knowing about the way he was treated. You can see the decline in them also. KCOComics, Kevin.J, batmiesta and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer 1 9.8 Yeah, I am a massive sig series fan and have 1000+ books but I wouldnt dream of a sig of a HG book other than modern. But I guess if its your book, you can do with it as you wish I think this is about right for my conscience Venomous72, batmiesta, KCOComics and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I have probably had them since the 1970s or early 80s, I was buying from everywhere at the time, I was just looking to complete sets back then. batmiesta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantodude Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Why wait for an actual pending auction to have fun? I wonder what a 9.8 SS#1 would fetch nowadays, but also a 9.6 and 9.4 as they have only double-digit census (do they generally go for a pre-determined fraction of 9.8 value, and can we expect that--or whatever the appropriate ratio is--to hold if a 9.8 goes ballistic?). Has any one given that some thought already? There are only 9 blue SS#1s in 9.8. With the 9.8 FF#48 and a 9.8 SS#4 (and even the 9.8 MS#5) sales earlier this year, it just feels like a 9.8 SS#1 offering is around the corner.

Popular Post Pantodude Posted October 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2021 Great epic battle scene, but it's also my fav silver Thor cover (among many great Thor covers). Luckily, I acquired it "out of turn" a few years ago, before completing my early SA keys. I still recommend sticking with a plan, for sanity, but this is an example of when going with my gut made more cents.
