BillBreck Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 A few recent pickups from WW Chicago.......... Three from Dale Roberts.... And three more from blazing Bob Storms.... Dale and Bob had a lot of great books and I could have easily bought a dozen more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Bill - some beautiful books from Dale and Bob, especially that #18! Sweet! Congratulations. If this is the kind of raw stuff you're finding at the Chicago con, I'm going to have to make the trip one of these years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I posted this in the grading forum (both front and back pics) - and I'd love to get your grades, so drop by there and let me know what you think. In the meantime, here's the front cover. It arrived last week while I was on vacation, and I think the seller described it accurately. I'm very pleased.

Karma23 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Beautiful books Bill! And congrats on the #1 Drew! There are a ton of those showing up around here lately Looks like a solid 3.0 - 3.5, too bad about that crease though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I am not going to Baltimore this year. Marc gets a nice crowd in, but it is not a good venue for sales. Last year I was set up next to Ted and across from Bob, and we were swatting flies most of the convention. I know Harley did okay, but over half his sales were on 1 book (a VG/F AF #15) and he purchased that book at the show and didn't make that much on it.

drewincanada Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) Nice! Are you going to get it graded? Probably send it off in the fall. I want to enjoy it in raw state for a few months! Consensus seems to be that it's a 3.5, which is what I thought, too. We'll see. It MIGHT come back as a 3.0, but I'm going to remain optimistic.

I've been looking for a nice copy of #18 for a long time. I was pretty lucky to find a raw copy in this condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to get my #1 graded sometime soon also. It has a bit more spine wear than yours, so I'll be thrilled if it gets a 3.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be much happier, trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
