Wizard World Chicago: What did you buy?

[nochips]

I'll start it off. Found this in a box:

 

Thrilling # 15 Larson Pedigree. It's restored, but it's so cool: I grade it a restored Fine...

Hey Stuart,

I love Thrilling #15, and Larsons are just very cool books. I have an 8.0 non-pedigree, and Metro has the MH copy.

Wish I could've been in Chicago. I'll get there one year!

I saw that 9.9 Mile High Cap Jr 39? I think it was 39?

I would have gone for it but the outer cover is only a 9.8.

[nochips]

Yep, deal breaker for me as well. I can't lower my standards and buy a book that low grade.

What work was done to it if you dont mind me asking.

[nochips]

Top right corner, lower right corner had bug damage, according to the original larson list. You can probably see teh color variations on both spots....A few pages had corner pieces put back on. The back of the spine was redone in spots. It's amatuer work, but looks very presentable. Had a real pro done it it would have been nicer. Oh and the book was likely pressed. It has some water stains, like many of the Larsons. It's not a book for the ulta high grade dude. It's not a books to slab. It for pedigree collectors! It's a really cool larson copy of a great Nazi war cover.

Q: Wizard World Chicago: What did you buy?

A: I actually didn't end up going.

[richnerd]

Yes I think it looks nice and most likely better in person. Was just curious as all I could tell was top right. Thanks for sharing.

Picked this up off Steve Ritter. Part of the Simon Powell collection.

Nice book. I picked up a Mile High Red Ryder # 15 from Steve, He has some nice stuff.

[TheWatcher]

Too many nice books, unfortunately. Not enough money to go around.

I can never look the same at this book after seeing this.

Prepare to be underwhelmed and blamed.

 

First up - BobPfef - I've been hanging around too much with Bob and picked up this "The Bunny Cover" at the show. ( Bob Beehrbom had a Fairy Tale Parade # 1 for $123 - 20%, but not nearly as nice as yours) -

 

[Scrooge]

Second - JimJum for confirming that Tales from the Great Book is indeed a good read. I picked up # 1 and a ratty copy of # 2 - not high grade but I don't own any high grade books really. Lehti channeling Foster -

 

[Scrooge]

Third - all those Heath fans and War collector and Cold War enthusiast - Kent Blake # 5 -

 

[Scrooge]

Four - no one to blame but this was the perfect copy of Action # 166 I need for my collection and the only copy of that book I saw at the show in fact -

 

[Scrooge]

Five - an abbheration (sp?) for me. I actually upgraded a book!

 

New copy -

 

 

Old copy - too much even for my tastes - Anyone needs a copy?
