Well done!  I think you need an AF15?

Yesss, I would love to have one someday, although my pocketbook would take a huge beating on that one!

Nice Books! Amazing Spider-Man 1-20 is probably the greatest run ever! So many great and long lasting villains 

Thank you!  It's my all-time favorite comic book run.  And those Ditko covers are so fantastic to gaze at, along with the great villains!

Well my 1-30 isn’t nearly as nice as this but I’m now 2 books away from 1-current. Just need to pickup a 4 and a 11. The end is near.

just picked up this asm7 from @DST it's way nicer than the grade on the slab. and like @mosconi it's part of my ditko and early romita white page collection.

Thanks Dave!  Appreciate the kind words and so happy to have finished this quest after starting on it nearly 10 years ago!  I'm sure there will be more collecting goals and pretty books to find, as you have yourself attained. Look forward to continued fun and enjoyment in the comic journey!

I envy all you who are down to just a handful. When I still need 271 more to go.

Enjoy the ride. Once you get to the end of ASM then you face the inevitable - which organs do I sell on the black market to land an AF15? I’m almost there. I think I’m good with 1 kidney, not sure if that will be enough though.

Some relatively strong prices for ASM and AF 15 books that ended at Hakes tonight

So happy for you Andrew!!  Pretty sure there's a book or two I was able to add to your set (lost my total transcations spreadsheet a while back with an external drive meltdown ).  As you know, Spidey is tops for me as well.  Cool your 9 is also old label like mine. Lost all my scans as well and will have to rescan my books some day.  See if I can find.  This is the only scan my 1-20 I have handy...

Thank you Tom!  You did sell me your #41 CGC 9.0 many years ago and it's a gorgeous old label example too!  Love your #14, quite a stunner you've got there! 

[Straw-Man]

let's have some fun.  over the next 9 days, let's show our fave cover as we move thru the silver run in groups of ten [with the silver annuals on day 9].   today, show your favorite 1-10 cover.  here's mine.

I only have 2 of the first 10, so the first Ock appearance must win out.

 

[trmoore54]

I am motivated to rescan my ASM 1-20 so I am going to do that soon.  For now here is a camera pick of #4.  While I think some people are not a fan of the 4-panel approach I love it!  Also the cover word baloons and the humor.  Just love love this cover...classic Ditko!  Also I'm sure Mosconi will be fond of the page quality... 

[trmoore54]

Oh yeah and love the 6 and the 3...and the 1 and the 2 and the 7 and the 8 and the 9...the 5 and 10 not so much...
