thedude Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 (edited) JIM 83 but it's not 9.8 When it comes to SA my grade standard drops true,.. they drop even more when you enter GA books. It's like... "hey, is the cover attached ??.. are the pages falling apart?" Edited February 12, 2007 by thedude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase4 Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 How about this match up my GA brothers............both sold in '06 for approx. $28,500. Which MM would you choose, and why ? ...............or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filter81 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Marvel Mystery 2. I don't like the fact that it used to be a CGC 7.5, but I don't think I could spend $20k+ on that 128 pager in the grade it appears to be in... even if it is super-rare.

batman_fan Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Definitely MM2, always liked the Angel and who knows, maybe a 9.2 on the next submission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 #2, the annuals while neat, are not as important in my mind. I'd rather have a $28k DC though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.schomburg Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 On the JIM VS. MORE FUN, .....The winna is More Fun...reason, super iconic cover, probably one of the best condition examples left, much more rare. JIM, well lets say I know two people who have nicer copies ungraded, my feeling is there are plenty of high grade as to the More Fun....And I am a Marvel guy..Nuff Said! Now the MM2 VS. "The Annual"...I take the Ann. because with a little submission magic it might come back a 7.5 or better, and lets face it on a rarity scale it wins. It bothers me that the MM2 has been F@$SK with, and also I believe that you could find a nice copy, maybe not a 9.0(but are we really sure it is a 9.0), and you might not ever get another chance at a book(the ann.) with what maybe 5 to 10 copies left. Just MHO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase4 Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Inspired by CentaurMan, this is the 1st time I am using my own books on this thread. Unbeknownst to you guys, I am madly in love/lust with CentaurMan's unrestored Tec 1, and have thought about it quite often since he posted it a few weeks ago in the "Have a cigar GA" thread.....and I have reason to believe he does not find my set of all 3 Humor books ( 1 of only 2 known sets - Steve Geppi owns the other ) too shabby either. Assuming both have a value of around $25,000 - $30,000 ( guestimate...but probably fairly accurate ), which one would you choose, and why ? ..........or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimm Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 MM2 on the first, a timely without a red cover, sweet one too. Detective 1 is impossible to pass by for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially I'd say the annual if it was complete and in mid grade or slightly higher but its next to impossible to turn down that MM#2 copy.

shiverbones Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 well, this did give me pause, as the 3 "Pre comics" are really nice and desirable to me, I think Tec#1 is great, and the launching of landmark series & a better cover.... This is really tough, Tec#1 by a hair, a tiny teeny little chipmonk whisker... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
