topofthetotem Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Two night ago I saw a biography on Garry Ridgway(?sp) A very twisted individual to say the least. Was he the original collector of the Green River books or his brother? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I don't know how many hot pink corner boxes there are on Silver Age Marvels....but that one does kinda stand out. One of the great Colan/Subby covers. Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Hook Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 The dealer that I bought the Batman Annual from has about four more Green Rivers sitting in plain sight on the internet. Once I get a little more cash, I'll move on them and post them here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osborn_fr Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I do not mind competing. I remember when i won the GR DD#10 CGC 9.2 on eBay (at the end of the year 2005). I was aware that Brad was the GR collector but i also wanted a few ped books for my high grade DD collection (i already had Western PA, Winnipeg, Curator & Oakland copies). So i won the GR book. And i didn't know at this time what was the eBay's id of Brad, and that i was bidding against him. Brad congratulated me for the win. All is said. And if one day i must sell it, Brad will be the first i'll talk to. (i didn't forget that it's Brad who PMed me in 2004 when he was selling the Curator copy of DD #39). Oh and btw, this is my 3000th post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I'd be happy to go into the details of how he requested my high bid on that one book that he said he'd step aside on. I reluctantly gave him that information, and he used it to throw in a monster last second snipe and ultimately pay about four times what the book was worth. That is a class-A move right there. You're being a lot more restrained than I would be, were our positions reversed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
