[bronzejunkie]

Hey, Guys...

 

Whats your vote for the rarest and most hard to get bronze age titles... Starting with Marvel then DC and finally onto the independents?

 

Other than Variants.

Wow we've had

 

Most Over-Valued

Most Under-Valued

Key Bronze

Semi-Key

 

hmm anyone else think there might be some people out there looking to find out what bronze books to buy next??

 

Anyways, I'd say Captain America 117 is pretty rare.

No, Murph, I already know what I want to buy, I don't dig on speculations and bandwagons(which is a good and bad thing)

In terms of true scarcity regardless of grade:

 

Marvel's 2nd-string Westerns, especially Wyatt Earp

Charlton Westerns and Romance

Marvel Hanna-Barbera treasury book (can't remember the name)

Last 4 issues of Bunny (Harvey)-at least in my experience.

[g-man]

DC 100 pagers in 9.4 or better especially the romance books.

 

[Joanna]

Charlton Westerns and Romance

 

Does anyone buy Charlton Romance books? I have a few of these and have been debating whether it's worth it to put them up on ebay. I didn't know romance books even sold anymore.

If there are any "orgy covers" in your collection, then just PM Scottish and get ready to count your money.

Nope, no orgies. These are Career Girl Romance issues 64-67. There is one with a free poster pin-up of David Cassidy. C'mon get happy!

Uggh, Charlton Romances are the most unreadable books around! Even I won't read them. At least the DC and Marvel ones are somewhat readable or downright hilarious!

[hogations]

Marvel titles:

 

Children titles: L'il Pals, L'il Kids (those last few issues of L'il Kids are a real pain)

Romance: My Love, Our Love Story

Western: Gunslinger, Wyatt Earp, Gunhawks

Teen: Chili, Harvey, Millie the Model, Mad about Millie, etc.

 

Some of these are already pricey in the guide - $55 for a NM Li'l Pals #1? It's almost the same as Marvel Premiere #1! Do any dealers really have any documented sales of these books?

Scarce: Cerebus #4, 5.

R there any documented sales of Jonah Hex 1 (1977) at $100, #2 around $50 per Overstreet survey?

[aardvark88]

Cancelled Comics Cavalcade b/w #1 & 2 DC circa 1977? Think there were around 50? pairs printed. Now delisted fr Overstreet.

I had a difficult time finding Jerry Lewis 117 (it was a Wonder Woman cross-over) and Doom Patrol 104. Not sure I ever found the DP, actually. But I do have the Jerry Lewis and it's wacko.

Joanna,

Here is one for you. (You're not the seller johann77 by any chance?)

I've not noted this one as scarce, but I found mine some time ago and have not looked recently.

 

Cheers,

Z.

Obviously not her location states California

[Joanna]

Cool! Thanks, Zonker! Even though I've told myself I'm not allowed to bid on any comics, it's only a couple of bucks, so I just may have to make an exception.

Hey, I checked the guide for the first 10 issues of Jonah Hex. WTF is with that pricing? $100 for a #1?

[greggy]

I was lucky to buy a Jerry Lewis 117 as well as the 112 (Flash cross-over) cheap when a collector friend of an eBay dealer sold off his collection. Otherwise, I would have never found those books!
