Chicago Boy Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I know but that’s the third one in a year ( the two 3.0’s ? ). I still see the third most important bat book of all time. I don’t own one anymore but man I love that book. First Robin. Gotham Kid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne-Tec Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Detective Comics #38 is one of the most important comic books ever published. Key GA books have been undervalued for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Knight Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Down to $5500 now. I knew it was too good to be true. I wonder if there was a glitch or something. Very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 it was down to $5000 when I posted earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabidwolf Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 For it to have been at 51000 doesn’t that mean there is/was an underbid of 50k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gino2paulus2 Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I will say this that is an ideal looking 1.8 with nice pages. As someone who collects these grades or, “entry level” copies this is what you look for. You always pay a premium but it’s most likely a lot of folks best shot at owning a major key. Not a bidder just wanted to chime in if anyone wins it here that’s my kind of copy right there 👍 Gotham Kid and ender 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was a three point no it went for 57K? That was an auction book and then Bob storm had a 3.0 that went for 37K about a month later I believe. I think both of those were in the past year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without this sale on CC, I believe Bob's copy wouldn't have sold as it apparently sold within the hour of the CC auction result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
