Wanted Silver Age Flash covers - Cinfa 0

[Terry E. Gibbs]

The last thing on my list is a SA Flash cover. Have some money parked and can unload some SA comics keys. Desirability and prices vary on content. Possibly 70% of the covers from that run would be on my want list.

Will pay 2.5% commission/finders fee for any completed purchase.

Would dearly love to put this obsession behind me and just move onto other things in life.

They are out there, sitting in someone's cupboard along with the 1960s comics they bought as a kid, only to be discovered when they moved, by their kids or when they died etc. Four complete unknown Flash chapters have turned up in last 4 years, including two title splashes. I doubt this is the ned of it. They don't all wind up on HA or CL.

I know of 5 SA covers, including one I bought back in 1977, out in the wild. 
 

SA Flash covers are among the toughest originals to find. The last one was auctioned off in 2013. 
 

These days, anything good will go to auction before they get offered privately.

Most, if not all the covers will show up in auction. 
Concerning SA Flash splashes, yes I know about those chapters. 
I also just last week, sold a Flash splash through my website.

Thank you, was that splash the 135. Which chapters do you know about from last four years, could you share and thanks for the info. I know of covers for 117, 123, 135, 137 off the top of my head. (117 & 137 HA archives)

Add the covers for #120 and #144, which I owned back in 1977. Bought it for $100 at the San Diego con.

Wow, Kid Flash first cover !!!  Thanks, wonder if those original fans (1960s) look back and realise what they had back then.

I think Fishler currently owns the 120 cover? I've never seen the 144 cover, that one is a personal favorite. Very nice to know it still exists.

I sold the #144 Cover back in the late 70s and haven't seen it since.

The 135 I think was with Cool Lines at NYCC in 2019. The 108 though is news. Someone back in 1959 was lucky !!
