Silver Surfer Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 so you're the guy who paid the nosebleed price for this! a - HA! it all makes sense now! rubs hands together Sal are these your books? Some other clown out bid me on about a dozen of them the other day and ran the price up on this book. I guess I'm not the only clown who is looking for these high grade Simonson books. I have not seen a 9.8 copy of issue #345 for sale in almost two years. Just checked the census and this is the only copy at 9.8. Can't understand why there are tons of copies for issues like #340,#342, etc and none of these. This is one of the best covers from the first 20 issues that Walt did.

Need just a couple issues and I'll have #337-359 slabbed in 9.8. Didn't like the #337 the guy had for sale, only OW pages and there looked to have some faint damage on the top RHC otherwise it would have been mine.
