Lets see your books that have 50 or fewer copies on the Census 15 15

between 13 and 29

Total of 9 in census. 8 Universal and 1 restored. November 1942 Tom Mix #12 by Ralston Purina.

This is the result of Rum and Coke in quantity while perusing the Heritage site, which made me misread the description along the lines of "Extra staples from Manufacture".  Still, an interesting book and when people ask about added staples and Label Color post it. Considering the original staples were removed and new ones added I am amazed it got Universal. Still a pretty book.

36 graded copies - this is tied for highest (so far).....so few sales that my copy that I bought in 2003 is still the last regular sale in grade!

That is one of the most gorgeous 4.5s I have ever seen.

Here's another one for the thread, my Master Comics 33. It is worth slabbing in almost any grade and yet there are only 14 on the census, and two of those are restored.

[frozentundraguy]

Only 33 on the census, up from 29 about a year ago. An underappreciated book  IMHO.

 

[frozentundraguy]

Only 24 on the census for this 1954 Atlas book. I do plan to submit this book for grading.

It's amazing to see those Tip Top issues in 6.0 and above.

Not many 1980's Marvel's with Census Pops as low as these as well as general lack of interest. Even CGC did not care enough about them to give them the "last issue" notation

Where are all of the Dennis the Menace collectors?

[troydivision1]

These books from my personal collection fit (currently) within the parameters.

Black Hole #1 signed by Charles Burns
Game of Thrones #1 Retailer Incentive Variant signed by George R.R. Martin
Scott Pilgrim: Full-Colour Odds & Ends signed by Bryan Lee O'Malley

Very sharp books. I too have issue #134 of Marvel Tales, but I have no plans to submit it for grading as it's an average copy.
