tilleycs Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 O.k, I'm finally getting around to posting these. Thanks to a referral from mattbird, I was able to purchase FF #'s 2, 5-20 all in one shot from a guy in Canada for a GREAT price. They're all reader copies, and the guy wanted to sell to someone who would buy them for their personal collection, so he gave me a great discount. I paid about 35% of guide price, and that included shipping all these from Canada. I'm on a comic-buying moratorium for the rest of the year, so these will have to last me for a while. I think #5 was signed by Stan Lee at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I think #5 was signed by Stan Lee at some point. Did CGC validate the signature? Then it couldn't possibly be an authentic signature. (insert sarcasm graemlin) Nice collection though....I assume you'll invest in some acid free boards and mylites? I think it's still worth it.

(insert sarcasm graemlin) True, it's gotta be a fake. I was robbed! Nice collection though....I assume you'll invest in some acid free boards and mylites? I think it's still worth it. Thanks, Red. I have a few lying around, I think. The books look a lot nicer in them, anyway, so I probably will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 What's great about that collection is you can actually..... .....read them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilleycs Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 What's great about that collection is you can actually..... .....read them! Exactly, and that's the reason I bought 'em. I've never read the 2-24. I've read reprints of 25 and 26, but nothing before that besides #1. I'm kind of curious if the old FF cartoons from the 60's held to the comics any.

THE_BEYONDER Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Can I rent the run from you for a week? I read my 1 before encapsulation...and would love to read the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 What a concept!!!! The CGC Board Lending Library!!! Brilliant!! You pay media mail shipping and a small premium........$5 or $10... and you get the original issue shipped to you for one week.....and then you have to return it by media mail or ship it to the next person on the list after the paypal the owner. I like it. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
