CHASEnBLUE Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Nice book and presents well. 7.5 to 8.0 and a C&P would be appropriate. BoogieWoogie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Ries Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Very nice. I would go 7.5 conservatively. Would love to see the pages. Maybe 8.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't unsee the book now. Whenever I find books in the wild, they look like they have been used for Bigfoots nesting material. If that's your book, congratulations. A really fine example of a classic Bat cover. I like the Batmobile cover one as well. I LOVE the expression on Batman and Robin's faces. "We are going to tear you a NEW one!" LOL!

Been buying books from a guy locally for 4-5 years. About 6 months ago he contacted me that he was ready to move the last/best of his Bat books. I had to sell off some big books but was worth it IMO. He worked at a shop in Montreal back in the day. Edited March 23, 2021 by Tbone911t BoogieWoogie and DocSaum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are all so so so nice. Really an astounding cornerstone to build a collection around, incredible quality! It's really awesome that y'all were able to keep things local and it went from one real deal collector to another. A love story! Not inquiring to purchase but out of curiosity are you keeping the duplicates or moving on from them? Very powerful flex to have duplicate Bat books under #50 in this condition!

I need about 30 more issues to finish my 2-100 run so I most likely will be moving my doubles (18/28/31/32/48) to fill so more holes.

Oh so sweet. In 1983, an old farmer brought in a bag of Bat books into a shop I used to buy at. #'s 52 to #1. 3 #1's in the bottom of that bag. Average grade for all was probably 5.0's. I could only weep. I bought the 9 and 52. $65 for a 4.5-ish #9. My then wife considerately ripped an inch into the entire spine during a disagreement. I can still hear the sound. Thanks, Hon.
