Gee Whiz! That's swell

[Forbush-Man]

This one is one of the bigger books in the NOVEMBER FEATURED AUCTION, but thought some of you would like to see it early.

Amazing-Man Comics #22 with the classic Green Gorilla's with Nazi Swastika headbands (and a damsel in a very unflattering & compromising pose... ) Got this one a long time ago from a PAL of mine.

Well, well, well.................an even tougher book with only 5 graded copies in total as compared to the above Comic Pages which had 7 Universal plus another restored copy according to the current Population Census Report.  

Only reason I remember this book is that I believe @G.A.tor stating in one of his posts from a few years ago that this was the last Centaur book he needed to complete his Centaur run at the time.    

Good luck, hope you snag your targets.

Pretty soon, I think I’ll be changing the title of this thread to “Forbush-Man’s fabulously delightful collection of comics for sale on ComicLink”.

Aw, I wouldn't change it...My time is running short with the majority of books in by the November auction.  I may go back through my collection and see if there's anything else G.A. I'm willing to let go, might have a few, but nothing like this. Just giving them a proper send off...

Plan your exit while your young.  This is phase one for me, most of my S.A. collection goes in phase two.  Phase three will be letting go of the few I keep until then. 

Like most comic book collectors (unlike me though ), I imagine you SA collection must be significantly larger than your GA collection?  

I imagine you must be keeping your best books for Phase 3 which makes me wonder what books are in that grouping there.

Yes, the vast majority of my collection is S.A..  I got many of the Keys way before I ever dipped my toes into G.A., but once there I neglected to get some I was missing (A.F. 15 and F.F. #1).  But when I was thinking of letting go, I realized it was the hunt & love of comics history and the art of G.A. books that attracted me. But I didn't have the connection to G.A. that I do with S.A. comics I grew up reading.  So G.A. goes first (at a good time to let go too) and I'll let go of the S.A. books in a while a few here and there, keeping myself busy as a part-time activity.  I've been accumulating a number of coverless to low grade S.A. comics I will be assembling and doing some book-binding to leave me with the feel of the originals, with all the adds, soapboxes and checklists on newsprint. Some are originals, but many reprints, but when I'm done there, phase 3 will begin.  That will be the true test; I hope I'm up for it then.

No I was just joking, but have to commend you on the tons of golden age goodness you're throwing out into the world!

Yes, that one is the most desirable of the bunch & should do very, very well.

Hey Bob;

Your link took me right to 3 later rare and HTF Ace Comics with the Phantom covers such as this one here:  

https://www.comiclink.com/auctions/item.asp?back=%2FAUCTIONS%2FPREVIEW.ASP%3Fcode%3D2022oct%26session%3D2%23Item_1624962&id=1624962&itemType=0#detail

Would these Ace Comics also be yours since you seem to have so many rare books and it's pretty hard to beat these later Ace issues with only a mere total of 4 graded copies for Ace 145 & 146, and only 3 graded copies for the Ace 147 with the above copy being the single highest graded copy?

So the artist was never credited? Who did the cover for this?

They are really nice, but they don't belong to me.  Good luck to you if you decide to pull the trigger.

Only one scan to add, and only three days to go.
