AF15 Coverless 0

[Meftical]

There is an Coverless AF15 on eBay that started at .01. In four hours it's hit $2700. I wonder how high it can go....

Coveless and incomplete as it is missing 2 story pages. It may also be the worst looking coverless comic I have ever seen.

I'm placing my bet at $5k.

I honestly don’t see the point in owning it without a cover. Only my opinion

Perhaps there are people out there looking for parts? 🤔

For some though this is the closest they can get at the time or ever get. I completely understand why someone would want it sans cover

Boy, you aren't kidding! That's rough! 

It would be fun to read the story, but for that kind of cash, I'll buy a reprint.

Frankenbooks are bad for the hobby.  IMHO

Even with rarer GA books? Marrying covers and CFs? I've got a couple of books I found parts for and it was really fun.

I have no idea if my opinion is widely held, but for the life of me, I can't fathom why people do it.

Probably this - realistically this is as close to within reach ownership for many seeking an AF15.

Yeah maybe they are, but its a comic book not a car.

each to their own of course but it’s not for me

I married a CF into this Cap 1 because it really really really really felt good.  The comic is complete now.  It's not that complicated.

I can share some of my successful marriages tonight, but nothing of this caliber! 

I can't imagine there are many people that would snub there nose at this because of the married centerfold. It's a gorgeous copy of one of the most important books in our hobby!

And yet, if you had minor color touch it would be purple.  It's only my opinion, but it's not a complete book.  It's an assemblage.  Looks pretty though.

And I'll add, complete Cap 1s are obviously no where near as abundant as AF 15s, so I get it.

So..... when your kidneys fail and they find a donor for you and perform the surgery to save your life, are you a complete Human again, or are you just an assemblage? 

[KPR Comics]

LOL.

That's allot of $$ for a coverless AF15 that's missing pages and generally beaten up.
