Popular Post sagii Posted June 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2021 I remember a Thread from when I was still a lurker here and the books were being bought to market, couldn't find another so forgive me if there is. The Promise pedigree discovery thread has garnered the BW find many mentions as it was the last time HA introduced a pedigree to the community in this fashion. Smaller in size but containing notable Key and sought after books, it will be nice to see who has bought and held since the original auction and who has acquired examples on the secondary market. I fall into the second group. This is my one Billy Wright book, a stand out to me as a early pre Superman Centaur, but also because it's one of the few books Billy wrote his name on, easily identifying its provenance. I tell this story often: it's the record holder for the CC battle of the rest clock I have ever had. Felt like hours! After much back and forth I really was down to my last counter bid, before whomever I was competing with this for threw in the towel.

Worked on, pressed, cleaned and whatever enhancement has been determined by the market place to squeeze a few extra bucks out of them.

comicjack Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 It's a shame Billy's wife didn't reap the profits from these books.That man had great taste and was at the right time period for all the good ones.I would have loved to get the Arrow from that collection but the bidding was crazy on that one.The problem with those and the promise books you have to just keep pushing the buy bottom until the other guy gives up sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
