The book is nothing special, but there's a personal connection there that's unique. Agreed, these books were close to Stan, and he obviously had very long relationship with his tailor, so much so they had these books as a connection.

Gaard Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I really had no idea that people even had personal tailors. How do you get that gig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
universal soldier Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Snagged this on Comiclink last night. The one big appearance of Him/Adam/Warlock that I was missing from all the early appearances. This has been eluding me for a few years so happy I was able to grab it. The 8.0 went for nearly double what I paid and got it for under my max bid. Still need a MP #1 and a small cameo to complete the run. Larryw7, Microchip, djpinkpanther67 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it sounds like Stan was some kind of royalty and this David Parsow guy waited around in one of the castle hallways until he was needed, but I'm guessing it just means that Stan was a regular at his tailor shop and seldom/never took his business elsewhere.

Popular Post Brer247i Posted April 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2022 I may have overpaid for this book. This issue has been a difficult one for me to find in this range and it’s the last one I needed to finish the run.

Tailors will make house calls (or office calls) if the pay is right. Used to work for people who had similar setups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up a 9.6 a few years back as a 50% spec / 50% concept was cool purchases. i.e. Dracula, Doctor Strange, Blade. That being said and if I recall correctly, the Blade sorry is a separate story?
