Primetime Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I'd probably take the Tec because its a high grade Church copy and then find a low grade Suspense #3. Couldn't envision myself hanging on to either book very long, there is much better books to be had for $14,000. What books do you/would you hold onto Peter?

dizzyfoxx Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Which one would you choose??? or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primetime Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Suspense 3 Although the Church pedigree is nice...Tec 19 is not a Pre-Bat Tec I'd want...a #8 or #18 Church would give the Suspense 3 more competition... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primetime Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) Both sold for $28,680 in May of 2008 at Heritage. Which one would you choose, and why? Supes 1 More popular character from generation to generation. Cooler character. Although, the AA16 and GL is still cool, but I am just answering Steve's question Edited April 8, 2009 by Primetime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1koko Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Which one would you choose??? or #53 considerably harder to find Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 What books do you/would you hold onto Peter? Well if I didn't have to liquidate last year I defintely would have held on to a bunch of Spectre More Fun's, early MMC's, I could get a killer All Select #1 for $14,000 , Tec #35, Cap's, Sub-Mariner's etc, etc. These two books are not on the radar.

ciorac Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 More Fun 55 in this case. That spine split on the 53 just throws me. The 55 is a much nicer grade, and I am a Fate guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I think I'd go with the 53. I've drooled over that cover for decades! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cimm Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 without hesitation... Oh! and the Suspense #3, no contest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiveTurkeyMoFo Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Put me down for the Winters MF # 55...its probably being potentialized into an 8.0 as I write this, and I was the underbidder on that one too...will my torment never cease? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KING of JOKERS Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 53, far tougher book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashrael Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Hmm... 53: Tougher, only 3.0, 2nd Spectre, C/OW pages, Classic Flasher Cover 55: Much higher grade, 1st Dr. Fate, W pages I think I will go for 55! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Hand ® Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 The battle of 2 cool comics! both sold for approx. $14,000 in 2005 ( already retro in our world. 'eh?) The notes on the Suspense 3 are "small piece of tape on centerfold at staple" Which one would you choose, and why? I didn't know you could have a piece missing like that and still get a fine+?

Silver Surfer Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I'd take the MF#53 just because its an earlier issue with a better cover and harder to find unrestored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
