jimjum12 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 I was wondering if anyone had any information about this or links to any websites or articles. The back issue stock was sold off a few decades ago, with multiple copies of many of the issues in the stock. I remember reading about this somewhere but can't remember where. As I recall, the issues listed as "sold out" on the order forms in the magazines were indeed sold out, like the FAMOUS MONSTERS # 26. I remember seeing large groups of a dozen or so high grade copies turning up around here of early Creepys and EERIES that have all sold over the years. I am especially interested in finding out which issues were NOT present in the Warren Warehouse. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 I DID find this while scouring old threads in this forum ... maybe that will keep me busy for a few. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) I believe the Koch Brothers and a few others bought out that inventory and the majority of it was in the VG to VF range as can be confirmed by talking with one of the Koch Brothers and I do not think there was a large volume of Vampirellas left over in the Warehouse Sale. It would be interesting to get professional opinions if more knowledgeable parties could participate on these boards. I would have liked to know the quantity of each issue and title if an inventory list is or was available. One thing to consider is 1 million mags can dry up quick in 20+ years since the Warren Sale... and High Grade Jems in 9.6-9.8 will still be RARE in comparison to the low grades as most who handled these items stored them wrong as there was never the provisions of suitable boxes or containers in the early days. Comics on the other hand from 20+ years ago are extremely common in High Grade as better storage means were available. oakman29, aardvark88 and Randall Dowling 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakman29 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Correct. The warehouse Warren's were all in VG to VF with little VF at all. High grade examples are still tough to come by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
