PokerKid Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Have been on a bit of a binge lately. Here are some of the non-moderns I added. This Young Allies looks like it took a 1.0 to 1.5 grade hit for page quality. Looks very nice. (Glad I grabbed it as I think I would have lost the fight for the 9.0 on Heritage today.) Rube 11 helped me finally upgrade this one. (I won one on ComicLink that got lost in their warehouse). While watching TAFKADixie (Sam) open his awesome blind eBay purchase box on video, I spotted this book. I hated my low grade issue and he was kind enough to sell me this solid copy.

PokerKid Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I also picked up some poker card art that was literally for poker cards. FX Show Celebrity Poker Challenge put on a tournament and created a deck with cards drawn by various artist. The Linser Dawn was way out of my range and I didn't bid enough on the nice Mike Golden piece, but did grab these three. (The actual cards are at the top of the drawings.) Franco Rich Woodall Brian Hurtt (easily my favorite of the three) This features Eddie, his main character from Three Days Dead - a comic I will need to pick up to check out.

PokerKid Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Thanks to WorldWide Comics, I have added three books to my collection today that I didn't know I needed. A good question that was asked of me at the CGC dinner was how many books did I think were out there that I didn't know had card covers. I still don't know, but clearly quite a few. Any help on identifying them is always appreciated. Luckily, WorldWide labels all their incoming books for me so I can find the card covers. The three raw books are labeled "Seattle copy," a collection I know nothing about. The Wyatt Earp is an upgrade, but I had never seen the other two Westerns (which oddly have a similar cover concepts) and never noticed the MOKF.

Paratrooper Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Having fun with your collecting focus? Wish I could see the pics, but congrats anywho. If you're still finding 3 covers you weren't tracking all at once, you still have a long way to go...but that's the fun part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're still finding 3 covers you weren't tracking all at once, you still have a long way to go...but that's the fun part. I expect to keep finding non-mainstream moderns but it is surprising when I find a cluster of others. Since Westerns don't get shown as much, that is where I expect to find most of the "unknown" titles. Cheyenne Kid and Kid Montana were the two that showed up here. Keep safe.
