lou_fine Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Kind of sad to see the once in-demand Cap 3 Red Skull classic cover books was unable to get even a single additional bid in the live auction: https://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/superhero/captain-america-comics-3-timely-1941-cgc-vg-40-cream-to-off-white-pages/a/7244-94027.s Looks like this nicely presenting relative to its assigned CGC 4.0 graded Universal copy finished up at only $27,600 or just a bit more than where restored mid-grade copies were selling for only a few short years ago.

It went for $5K more than the blue 5.0 fetched just one year ago! Greedy, aren't we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Mystery Men 3 I think Tim did okay on that, sure it was no Marvel Spotlight 5 but what is. jimjum12, lou_fine and tth2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As posted in the other thread: I tallied it up at $7,020,840 just for the first session. Median price since Jimbo mentioned it was a whopping $25,200.

I think it is clear with one day left on the promise collection that everyone now would pick, like and number of board members did, the promise collection over A1 8.5...what a amazing total, we are in comic book world record auction totals after 2 days...we could hit 20 million or something like when done ...wow we have sure grownup....auction is still going for today, Silver....$18,521,430 and growing...WOW Edited June 18, 2021 by Mmehdy sfcityduck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmehdy Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) BEST OF THE REST....Sat Promise Auction and the real Sleeper of the entire "Promise Auction" 1-Claire Voyant #4 CGC 9.6 curently at 1500 plus BP...what a great book and cover....once in a lifetime under 2k..... 2-Marvel Tales #97 CGC 8.0...here is your shot to own a very rare high condition promise cool horror book..it's still $430... 3-Venus #3 CGC 9.2 an exceptional book and add the Promise Pedigree ...it just at 1000...keep your eyes on that one its at the end of the second auction. 4-Miss Fury 4/5 CGC 7.5/8.0 super classic WWII covers...hopefully affordable...very rare in this condition....still around 1800-2000. 5- True Crime 2 "Blast the Rats"...I remember when Bob Overstreet featured this in one of the "color" sections of the price guide, could of been on the SOTI issue..the book just exploded and everyone wanted to own one. The Cover and contents are a total classic. What I do not understand at CGC 9.2 and with the "promise" pedigree and such a great GA book that it is still under guide..at like 3800 or something including "BP". This is the "sleeper" of the entire "Promise" auction. "Murder, Morphine, and Me....this is the poster child of the SOTI and it is top copy by a mile..9.2 with one 7.5 way behind.....
