The better covers go nutz at VF...... GOD BLESS....

 

-jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u

 

Probably not quite nice enough to go nutz, but I always have liked it since finding it (about 10 years ago now.)

I'd go nutty over that copy! Nice! (worship)

 

Thanks Jayman! If I'm not mistaken, your copy is as nice or better. :)

 

Jay has the lone variant copy in the world - priceless.

 

Hee, Hee, Hee...it's all mine! :insane:

.....depending on PQ and gloss, you're probably sitting on a 1500+ copy......but you'd likely never replace it in that shape.... GOD BLESS....

Thanks for your thoughts, Jimbo! For as far as I can see into the future, I'm happy to keep this one in my precodes box. :)

After the CC auction results, I'm beginning to wonder what this might bring? hm

A pretty sum, I'd bet! I am lucky to have a copy too, but yours is FAR better -- mine has a mouse-chewed upper right corner. Those mice had good taste! ;)

 

...tree fiddy.....and a couple of zeroes....... GOD BLESS...

The 8.0 closed at $8,2550. The highest graded.pedigree factor obviously supercharged the sale.

 

I sold a 3.5 for 400 in the Clink.

 

I think I put a floor on it of $2750 and I am being conservative...

Hope the owners/sellers aren't offended, by my sharing of this raw scan of the JIM 7, looks better than an 8.0 to me, by quite a bit.

100% agree -- looks awfully in the NM range by whatever definition for this era. Perhaps hidden flaws, back cover crease, etc?

No I have the BC somewhere also, no issues. Looks like CBCS undergraded it, which is why I went wild for it...unfortunately/sadly I fell short.

I never bought into reprints killing the value of originals. If anything, they help keep them relevant and in the public eye. Nosebleed highgrade EC's will get amazing prices, and they've been reprinted consistently over the years. How many times has Action #1 been reprinted? And... well, you get my drift. ;)
