Very nicePF!! I am a low grade guy myself for the most part. I do buy restored books though when I can't find a low grade.

 

Do you have a #5? That is my favorite of the single digits.

 

Funny you should ask...

[Point Five]

Just for fun...here are the two centerfold story pages in #2. Superman goes up against an enemy army's firing squad...

 

[Point Five]

...but to their amazement, he easily and cheerfully shrugs off their bullets...

 

 

One enemy soldier, believing their guns must be filled with blanks, proceeds to shoot himself in the foot. (The tiny red star Shuster adds in is priceless!...yep, that would smart just a bit...)

Here's a purchase from last year that I've finally paid off. This was MAJOR purchase considering my limited comic budget, but I couldn't pass it up. I'm like a proud pappa with this one, and it's the next best thing to me finding my grail (Action #13).

 

Here it is

That's a tough book, and I'd be very happy with a moderately restored copy just like that. Now crack it out and enjoy the stories and the off-white pages! You'll find that you like it even more without the purple label.

NICE !!!

 

forget about finding a #13, you've got a #10 !!!!! great book Brian, your one lucky dog.

Thanks guys for the kind words.

 

I'm real happy with this book as I've always wanted an Action between 2-10, and the only way for me to afford this book is to get a restored copy. I'm happy it has no tape, no cleaning, & no trimming.

 

I do still hope to find an Action #13 someday, but it's been such a long time looking that I've had to move on to other options.

Just an excuse to bump this thread:

 

Here's my copy of Supes #17 which I bought years ago not knowing the staples were replaced but still it presents well for a 3.0.

That does present well for a 3.0, and I like the exceptional page quality as well
