Here is today's total from Jim.  I am hoping we can reach $33k, especially with the books on MCS. I'm really hoping for $35k, at that point, I'll be very quiet;) 

"$31,534.48 as of the moment. GOD BLESS ...

Jimbo always loves a good Bronze Age picture frame (among every other great genre of gold, silver, and bronze age books he enjoys) so let's put this one up, free shipping in the US. Get better buddy!

Avengers 98 CGC 9.4 White Pages, Barry Windsor-Smith cover $CLAIMED Thanks!

Okay, guys, this one is a Big Swinging Deal;  A near-perfect copy of Batman Damned #1 CGC 9.9 White Pages.  CGC note : "1st Black Label Title", but it does not fully cover the ground-shaking importance & significance of this book....which is really THE VERY FIRST AND ONLY APPEARANCE OF "THE BAT-WANG!".   That's right, and let me say this again, THE FIRST AND ONLY appearance of The Bat Wang!!!  This book had a 2nd print, and the Bat Wang was overshadowed for sensitive eyes. 

This is truly a Collector's Item Classic.  Do not miss out.  Just imagine if the next BATMAN movie is bold enough to introduce "The Bat-Wang".....well, then this book will just shoot up like a rocket.  

The outer case has one very light horizontal scratch on the front (see the detailed picture that follows. The picture is a close-up and makes the scratch look much worse than it is. It was taken at an angle to get the best lighting to veiw it.)

$180 with free shipping in the continental U.S.   Proceeds go toward JimJum's recovery.

Now $180 with free S&H continental U.S.  All proceeds go to JimJum's recovery.

I have very good news today...from Jim:) twofold, the numbers and the water jug:)  We can definitely make it to $33k which I believe will be the 2nd largest amount we've raised as a forum. I'm hopeful that we can make it to $35k. Several people mentioned donating something in the past 10 days...I know it's a busy time, but if you were thinking about it, now would be a good time, please.  That way I can stop interfering with the people trying to have sales here...and I will stop worrying about Jim needing a food bank.

 

From Jim!

 

"At a quarter till noon, 1/07/24, we are tentatively at $32,957.99

I'm told they ran out of flower emojis and had to order new ones. Thank you, my friends. GOD BLESS....

-jimbo(a friend of jesus)

Still a bit of good and bad, filled my own water jug yesterday. I'm having to watch my grumpiness I have a LOT to be thankful for. "

Spoiler

 

Wonder Woman #52 from 1952. This was one of the harder issues to find while I was completing my run. I never had it slabbed because of the grade. It's still a little nicer than most low grade copies I see around, not that there are so many, but I have looked. There are 29 on the census if you are looking for scarcity. The books in the 50's are especially hard to find. 1952  which had an odd page count, 10 pages on each side of the staple.

There is a piece detached lower right at the bottom of the spine, a 2"+ split top of spine and the 2 other small pieces out of the front. The detached piece will be in a bag on the back of the backing board. Pages are in the Cr/OW range.  Color on the cover is nice.  It should grade at least 2.0, I wouldn't be shocked at 2.5.

$175.00 shipped U.S. or Canada, all goes to Jim.  Now $150 shipped  SOLD
