There's an even bigger book that's going to pop up from that submission that everyone is going to wet their pants about. Just a guess, but is it in this picture?

Dr. Love Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) ahh I sleuthed for no good reason, saw a glance in the first two minutes and started digging. Is there a Bats 1 9.2 somewhere in that podcast as well? Then I'd feel even more foolish... Edited June 9, 2021 by Dr. Love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seller could be making an offer on his own book to try to influence people's perceptions of the value. No, he's not. And it's not my book.

Could be the Mile High or the SF copy (those would fit Buttock's description). Could be other copies that are known or rumored to exist.

If the cover crease the Church copy had could be pressed out, then yes an 8.5 for sure.

Mmehdy Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) Ha has the "promise collection" video chat online just by going to the auction. After viewing the video 2 times here are a few observations. 1- with 300 books per month which is their estimate over 18 months that would put the promise collection at about 5400 books. 2- Probably close to 4000 of them will be the highest graded or tied. 3-some of the books apparently have "rat chews" and those along with some Famous Funnies will be in the weekly auctions. Ed talked about getting the best return and the average cost of those graded books would of been $60 on a $200 book and felt that the buyer should bear the cost of grading to get that pedigree label.4- I really liked the fact that there are 200-300 Timelys- Wow , as for GA when you have large collections, Timelys are rare, in fact they always have been, especially the late 1946-1949 ones. The video confirmed my estimation that this will go down in history as the "greatest OO GA comic book collection find in the year 2000 and above. I do not think they hid the ball, but they did say they will spread out the good stuff and that they have not gone thru all the books yet. I think the best point made, is that all collectors will have access to all Promise books, dated of sale and amounts paid, and conditions once the collection is completely sold and that is truly unique. We will have the entire collection online. Edited June 11, 2021 by Mmehdy sfcityduck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
