Shadow Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Great looking copy! Funny thing is, the coloring problem on Spidey's face always bugs me about this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Here are my slabbed Avengers. Still waiting for a few of these to arrive, and when they do I'll scan and post 'em: #3 - CGC 6.0 #7 - CGC 7.0 #14 - CGC 9.2 #20 - CGC 9.2 #40 - CGC 9.2 #47 - CGC 9.8 !!! #48 - CGC 9.4 #54 - CGC 9.2 #55 - CGC 9.2 #100 - CGC 9.2 I have some others that I think are worth slabbing. I'll submit them this summer, but here's where I think they'll end up: #2 - I think a 9.0 #22 - 9.0 #52 - I think 9.4 or 9.6 #53 - 9.4 #57 - 9.4 #66 - 9.4 #69 - 9.2 or 9.4 #74 - 9.4 #76 - 9.2 or 9.4 #98 - 9.2 I'll try to do scans of these soon...

Detroit MIke Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Nice grab on the # 4. That's one book I've never owned and still want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karma23 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Mac! that's fantastic for 25$ , wish i could find one like that...are the staples solidly attached? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Man Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Karma, not only are they firmly attached, but still nice and silver! I'm still in a little state of shock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artboy99 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 a book like that would be bagged and boarded and up on the prime spot of the LCS wall priced at 600.00 Artboy99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karma23 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 someone really dropped the price gun on that one! Sweet pick up Mac! if ya decide to sell holla at me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Man Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Thanks! Honestly, the only thing I can think is that he tagged this one as being the Golden Record copy (listed as 4a in the OSPG) and it WOULD price at $25 for that copy in this grade. But yeah, I was pretty excited to say the least. I also snagged a 1.0 (maybe 1.5) copy of ASM 5 for only $15 so it's been a really successful couple of visits at this store.

Shadow Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Wow! I was thinking the same thing if that Avengers #4 was the Record version. Are you sure there wasn't another version? Or was the Golden Record book the same saize as a true comic? Hopefully it's the original you have and, besides owning such a classic, you have a great story to tell! Great buy!

Mac Man Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Shadow, I scanned the book and posted it in the "Hey buddy, can you spare a grade?" thread. It's been verified by a number of vet boardies here, so swing by and see for yourself! It definitely makes for one helluva story, and has been the toast of the weekend! The only way I would entertain the sale/trade of this major marvel key would be if it somehow lead towards one of my super-grails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 That's good news that it's genuine! Congratulations again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 That was such a brilliant find, Mac Man. Congrats! Where do you live? #4 is #1 on my list right now, but even a 6.5 goes for $600. A copy just sold on Ebay from a selling with 15 feedback, a tiny scan, and no detail in the description about the condition (other than "extra extra sharp"). I asked him for high res scans, but didn't hear back from him, so I stayed away from it. It went for over $1200 today, which is the OSG price for an 8.0... I don't know how anyone can take a $1200 flyer on a book like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 This 11 just arrived today (looks nicer than a 9.4 IMHO): You guys are killing me with these great books, makes me want to go out and snag a few issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewincanada Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I posted my latest Avengers snags yesterday in the "This week in my collection" thread. Nothing quite as early and sweet as a 9.4 #11, but still nice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Man Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Oh yeah.... I forgot #11 was an early Spidey appearance. Might have to go somewhere into my list. I'm in Connecticut- lots of great little LCSs around here. I think he must've mistaken this one for the Golden Record reprint. Thanks to Point Five, I was able to I.D. this as a legit first printing, and into the long box it went! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Charlton Guy-migration Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Hey gang! Just to show that although Charlton books are still the end-all be-all of my collecting existence, I do have a soft spot in my heart for The Avengers: Here's a few from the CHAOSUS Hoboken collection that I hope to submit this month. So waddaya think, huh? Huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
