POST YOUR LOW GRADE PICTURES

[thedarkknight]

It seems that every one here posts high grade. Well it's time to show us your low grade copies.

 

I'll start with my Detective Comics #37 that I bought off eBay in January. I've made a few more purchases recently but won't post those until they arrive.

I was just looking at that book yesterday in the Photo Journal. Anyone have interior shots of the book?

[RareHighGrade]

Low grade books are like the Velveteen Rabbit. Their condition simply reflects how much they were loved by their owners.

I'll get my hole punched Superman 41 up in here some time this week

I'm going to have to upgrade this someday.In the mean time , I'm just happy to own a copy.

 

[CentaurMan]

Here you go. Spine completely taped, piece missing from the bottom, stained, and ripped, but I love it:

And here's one more. Rough copy, but the only one I'm likely to ever find:

 

 

As a bonus, here are a couple of interior photos of the Dr. Occult story inside (his only non-DC appearance, which is why he's under another name):

Thanks for showing the interior pages!

 

Although derivative of Roy Crane, I love that early Shuster art.

What a great cover!

I love that cover! Can you imagine the anticipation of some kid who's just bought it off the newsstand, with 128 pages waiting for him?

You know Win, for a "beater" that is almost 70 years old that copy has some blinding colors!

I usually hate forum policing, but I just love to see beaters so much, we should keep them all in the original thread, linked in the 2nd post above. That way, we don't have to check 2 different threads.

[thedarkknight]

Come on guys. Let's see more of these. I will post them as they come in for me. It's been a while since I collected Golden Age. Several years ago I sold them off and am now returning. I'll post every book I have when they show up. They are all low grade Detective Comics (I'm a Batman nut!) but I know I am not the only low grade collector here.

 

BE PROUD OF LOW GRADE! AT LEAST YOU HAVE A COPY!

Since this isn't really a "grail" for me per say. Its currently in the CGC que for grading so it will be interesting to see the grade.
