Star Trek - Gold Key Set, 1/2 way there !!

[speeder-migration]

Hi all

 

I broke away from my Conan collecting. Now i`m going for the complete set of Star Trek (Gold Key) 61 comic issue set.

 

I currently have only 2 comics in VF (#1 CGC 7.5 + #61)

 

The other 29 are either NM or VF/NM.

 

I`m really going to try to keep this set in at least VF condition, the first 15 or so comics would truly bleed me dry if i tried to keep a VF/NM or NM track.

 

(already put together the Star Trek 1980 series 2 - 18 comic set in NM)

 

Oh well, i`m pumped, but i`m sure that to some of you other collectors this sounds

all pretty weak. Please bear with me.

Sounds good. Don't let anyone poke fun simply because it's not Marvel or DC.

You sound like you're having fun.

[topofthetotem]

is your star trek #1 the photo back cover?

[speeder-migration]

Toptotem

 

Yes it is.

 

but honestly, those are about the only ones you see for sale anymore.

Good luck in your search. There were a number of these in high gade in the Heritage Auction that ended last week.

I only own 1 star trek comic and it is also the photo back #1. Mine is only a fine though.

Good luck on your endeavor. I've been working on completing this run in high grade for about three years now. I'm down to one last book -- #2. Thought I could pick up the 9.4 copy of #2 on Heritage last auction but it went for a way ridiculous price.

 

By the way, despite what it says in Overstreet, my experience has been that the photo back cover of #1 is far easier to track down than the one with an ad (which I've only seen once). I think the CGC census bears this out as well.

I completed the Gold Key run a couple of years ago, it can be a tough run in high grade. It is my second favorite run and I am sure there are quite a few other collectors here who love that run. I probably have quite a few duplicates, if you want, PM me with what issues you need .

Maybe if you complain loud enough, he will. Then I will crop & repost them.

Holy cr@p, I never saw those before!

Have you placed your set on the Registry yet?

 

I bought the #2 in 9.4.

[speeder-migration]

HI ALL

 

I considered the registry, until i found out they wanted me to pay to have it registered.

[Timulty]

I didn't have to pay for my sets to be registered.

[speeder-migration]

MY BAD

 

i went back and looked again, there was "free account" and "full paid account"
