PGM Lost BA beauties

[RickHigh]

I was going through a box of comics that was way in the back of the closet and found some nice BA books. Here are three great-looking covers. What do you think they will grade at?

 

Here's one of my favorite Superboy covers. The back is clean and the pages are off-white on this one.

Here's a beautiful cover by Neal Adams. Again, clean back and white pages.

Lastly, my favorite WWT covers. Pristine back and white pages.

i'm getting closer to kings grades, i'm improving

[RickHigh]

Thanks, guys. I think you right on the Superboys. I thought the WWT would grade out higher, but after looking at it with a magnifying glass, I do spot two small spine creases, so I guess 8.5 to 9.0 would be right. I have a few more books from that box I want to scan tomorrow night and get your opinions. I think those will grade out higher than these books did. Thanks, again.

Since those three were sitting alone and forlorn in the back of your closet, how about you sell them to me?

[RickHigh]

Thanks, Oct., but, they weren't alone. They had lots of company. I'm going to scan a few more tomorrow night that I think are beautiful books. They are DCs and probably not as "popular" as SB and WWT, but gorgeous books just the same. I think they will grade out higher also, but I want to get you guys opinions. You see, I think ALL my books are NM, so I need your opinions.

I was serious about buying them, though I don't know if you want to sell them. Those Superboys have great covers. You have a bunch of killer raw books from what I have seen, and it's always a pleasure checking them out.

Rick, sell books? he's a hoarder, didn't you know?

 

 

hey, Rick, i wanted to remind you that when i went to see your collection, i may have brought some nearly pristine Bronze Age books and stuck them in your closet prior to us going, for safe keeping. i think it was right before we left. i guess i forgot to pick them up when we got back?

 

 

you know, fyi

[october]

Well, if I were him you would have to pry those out of my cold, dead hands....but it never hurts to try.

I would have said 9.0 on that book, based on the scan. I've seen 9.2s with worse spine wear.

 

That said, a nice book to have in condition like that. All closets should be so bountiful.

 

The SBs were gorgeous too!

I thought they looked like your books!!

Here are a few more from the box. Mostly Bronze Age DCs that I have picked up over the years. A few Marvels. The pages on these range from off-white to white and all the back covers are nice. I think the Tomahawks are from the Boston collection. (Surely, there is a #116 from this collection out there somewhere.)

 

I think they are all in the 9+ range. What do you think?
