Action #7

 

Picked this up a few months ago (after it had sold on Heritage) but just now got around

to taking some of my own pictures.

 

A book I really thought I’d never have a chance to own, and really a surreal moment for me as a collector. A book I will be putting into the chest for the long haul.

 

The defect on this one is obvious. But the rest of the book is so nice in quality and color that it almost makes up for it. And again to just be able to own it, you’ll here no complaints from me.

 

Hindsight really is 20/20, I believe I was the first to post this book when it went up for auction on Heritage, and was defiantly not in favor of the piece missing. Passed on the book on heritage, regretted it ever since. As luck would have it when I started searching around for an early Action Superman cover, one of our boardies (none other than Rick aka Gator), had a line on this copy from its then anonymous owner who would sell if we figured out a price point. The rest is history. And I’m a happy man for sure.

 

Humongous thanks to Gator for making this happen, if not for you it would not have!

To me, Action Comics #7 is my all-time favorite Superman cover.

 

This was an unspeakably incredible acquisition on your behalf Alex. (worship)

 

No amount of congratulations would do this book the proper justice.

 

Just being able to appreciate the pics is a true privilege; I couldn't imagine how incredible it must feel to own this piece of history.

 

BIG TIME, BIG TIME, BIG TIME congratulations buddy! :applause:

A Christmas present? Regardless :applause:
A Heritage purchase. I had my last 3 purchases sent to my mom in Vermont because of the 8.35% sales tax. I was finally able to get them. The other 2 books are #24 CGC 4.0 and #94 CGC 8.5
