My wife can now breathe a sigh of relief... unless I change my mind... When this passed $27.5k, atleast I think that’s what page 5 sold for once, it became the highest price ever paid for a single page. Now it’s entering another universe at the current price and whatever it may keep going for. Action 1 and specifically Superman pages of course, just the record breaking gift that keeps on giving.

I have page 10. It’s cool, very nice presenting example, but not a Supes page. So people scoff at it when I show them.

Rather spend a little more and hunt for a coverless copy. The brittle part doesn’t surprise me. I’ve seen a brittle page 1 sell before and at the time it was an impressive price. It seems Action Comics 1 Superman pages defy reality no matter the PQ, but especially pages 1 and 5. And as far as hunting for a coverless copy, I mean truthfully you’re just not going to find one. But if you do, expect to spend around $150K-$200K easy. So quite a bit more.

GreatCaesarsGhost Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Here is a page I’ve long coveted. Can you spot the problem? comicjack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Ragno Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Looks like there's a piece of page 3 (?) attached to the back of the page. Not sure this is a problem. Other than some tears, I fear I may be missing the problem you are asking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a rogue piece from a different page, but regardless its source, the eye appeal is adversely affected. So that, plus the other problems with the page, are too much for me Edited February 15 by GreatCaesarsGhost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
