The OAAW 63 is a newsboy?

 

Yes

 

The OAAW 26 is a River City

I must own one Salida before I die. These books are making my eyes bleed.

 

Then I guess no one is interested in this

Very nice book. Let me know if you upgrade and

 

Upgrade from a Salida? Isn't that a physical impossibility?

Very nice book. Let me know if you upgrade and

 

Upgrade from a Salida? Isn't that a physical impossibility?

 

Not a Salida.

 

So it should only take me another two decades to find an upgrade.

No more PM's please, these are going with me to the grave...

First up, my 8.5 undercopy...

 

 

and now, my blessed 9.2...

 

 

Andy

[Jeffro.]

Nice Andy. That's one more than I own.

[bigfiver69]

Andy, I gotta tell you, you've got one of the best senses of humor on the boards!! I was totally jumped up to see an 8.5 and 9.2 and then all I could say was ''you got me!''. Nice one, my man.

 

Having a copy of that book in any grade is an accomplishment. It's the toughest of the 'Big 3' (OAAW #81, #82 and GIC #87) to get. It's stinkin' hard, and getting way overpriced, even in lower grade.

 

And on another topic, I too would like at least one Salida and Newsboy before I die.

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed that. I was laughing to myself posting them. Yeah, I've got a CGC 4.0 as well, but it's one of those classics that you can't have enough of. Seeing that CGC 7.5 was just great!

Andy,

 

Holy crud!! If that is what you call an 8.5 and 9.2, I really need to re-check all those books I bought from you. 9.2 my freakin' foot.

 

Never, never trust a canadian. Arrrgggghhhh!!!!

Yeah, those books that you got were graded the same way....

Yeah. I payed over guide for my CGC 4.0 copy and I'm thinking more and more that I was lucky to get it at all.

Whooo, I won my first Heritage auction. Bid on a bunch of books early on, with low bids not expecting to win any. but I won this War Comics #1 for a cheap price. I think it may be undergraded judging from scan. If anyone can post the picture here that would be great, I'm at work and can't do it right now.

From OSPG notes, apparently this is the very first War comic. Not sure if this is correct, but hey at almost $50 for it I think it was worth it....now let's hope GD- doesn't mean a destroyed back cover.
