Hey guys,

It’s been a long time since I’ve been this excited about anything in comics, so I’d like to share my latest acquisition with all of you. It’s an original Action Comics #1 front cover fragment—just the “No. 1.”

It originated from a scrapbook that Heritage authenticated years ago. While it’s easy to cringe at the thought of someone cutting up an Action Comics #1, this fragment probably wouldn’t have survived the test of time without someone making a conscious effort to preserve it.

I’ve owned single Superman pages from Action Comics #1 and all of them have been incredible. But this as on another level and is probably as close as I’ll ever get to the top of the mountain. 

I think i found where that goes or where it came from

Those are indeed fragments from the same Heritage Auction lot that my “No. 1” fragment came from.

Its weird, this auction came out just as pages were getting popular.  I bid on this auction (which I rarely do) with a total lowball bid  and didn't lose by much.  Once I saw what it went for, it was instant regret.

With the crazy skyrocketing prices I see in the 'Mega keys have a lot of room for growth' thread....$500K+ for many not-old and not-rare things....who knows what an Action #1 cover-fragment could be worth in the near future.
