Readcomix Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 (edited) SOLD! Battle Ground #18. The Sinnotts’ friend who helped the family grade these had this at VFNM, and structurally I concur. Please note though slight dust shadow on back, looks to be from uneven stacking? That said, a census ghost and no comps to be found. $400 Edited April 23 by Readcomix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readcomix Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 Okay, one more for tonight then I will wrap up the planned books tomorrow night with the various Marines titles still to come. I will take one more hard look at my keepers before closing the thread, and I might have a small addendum the following night after keeper review, plus a couple other of Joe’s signed file books that are not as high-grade and likely came to him as back issues, not as Atlas office newsstand comps. But two of those are PCH books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readcomix Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 War #33 in FN- Looks FVF or better from front but I don’t like the top staple tears and small spine flaws. Nine on census with a 7.5 at top. HA sold a raw VF- for $300 this year. $150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readcomix Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 Okay, that’s it for tonight. 10 Marines books tomorrow night, and a couple stragglers on Wednesday evening.

Joe was a great guy and I’m happy to have a part in keeping his legacy out there in the hobby’s eyes. Well …you are doing a heck of a job . Really. And bringing all sorts of old time boardies out of the woodwork, to boot. I went “backwards” with learning about Sinnott. First “big” signed book I ever bought was FF5, signed by him. To this day, I still think the best FF art is Sinnott inks on Kirby pencils. It was only later I started reading his Atlas stuff.
