adamstrange Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Most Jaw Dropping book in the lot is that Tarzan. Thanks for noticing! It is the Central Valley copy, and at present the book closest to my heart. Saw it at San Diego last year and was able to work out a very unreasonable price on it. But sometimes you just bite your lip and pay! BTW...the other really cool book is the Silver Streak #1. It is the Pay Copy. Got it at the first Philly Wizard show from a guy walking around the room selling Golden Age. He was at my table buying a World's Finest #3 and said "I can't believe I am buying something. I actually came here to sell!" One thing led to another...... That's a beautiful copy -- you've always had great taste in books! Thanks! I think it is time to get together again and have another big viewing party. We could charge each other admission! Sure. All it would cost is one book. I know the one I want. It might be close to even! Got one that's right up your alley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 This book is totally awsome! Thanks! What I really like is how CGC put "Tarzan" on the label. (Well no *spoon*) If it weren't for that I probably would have had no idea who the main character was. You really can't put too much info on those labels.

MrBedrock Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Very informative post Bill. Thanks for the insight. Adam, While I am a romantic sort, I was more thinking of something with Hitler on the cover. Maybe something that told his story. His real life, if you will.

Actually we put "Tarzan" on the label because the logo says "Tarzan" and we don't want people thinking the book is misidentified as a Single Series book.

When I display a book it is inside a Golden Age mylar which is then placed into a Magazine sized mylar, with a Magazine sized acid free backing board for support.

adamstrange Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Halfway home to two Quality runs, issues 1-10: STEVE Wow, you've been busy lately. I'm amazed at the books, of course, but the camera shot looks great too -- no glare issues and your "glossinator" works through 2 layers of mylar.
