I browsed the rooms during the deal as well as after it was completed. In the small side room I found a nice dealer named James and worked out a trade for these.

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I got a nice late Four Color 1157 off the boards this week and an early Gold Key movie comic that would have been a Four Color if that series kept going. They are both fun books with great interior artwork. I haven't picked up books like this in awhile and they reminded me how much fun the Four Color and Gold Key series was in its day. Both are Jules Verne adaptations although one is a Disney movie and the other is not. The movies of this era were a lot of fun; I'd love to watch these.

I guess we could supplement the Dell Missing Four Colors with Gold Key Woulda Been Four Colors. I assume all the non-squentially-numbered early GKs would fall into that category. My hazy recollection, though, is that GK kept publishing non-sequentially-numbered books for at least several years, so it would involve a lot of books.

Yeah, the newstand section of Mike's Amazing World of DC Comics gives you an idea if you march through sequentially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmg3637 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Here are a few of the four colors I got from Blissard last year Badger and telerites 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) I picked up one off of eBay. I know Duck book prices have taken a beating in the last ten years but I almost feel like I stole this one.

jmg3637 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 WOW While most of the Donald's do not seem rare, a 9.4 that is over 70 is amazing. quite a pretty book Here are the next few in the group from Blissard. Including another Donald. Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was thinking so I was surprised to find this at the price I paid. Looking at GPA I see that prices have been all over the place since 2003. A low of, supposedly, $1,131 in 2003 and a high of $10,755 in 2006 . A copy sold last year for $5,019 and I paid half of that this year. This must be a book that is really dependent on the market where it is being sold. Oh well, I'm happy and this is going into my "Pry it from my cold dead hands" pile.

jmg3637 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 This is one of the few Four Colors I actually purchased/ Long before I started with my Trading quest I was buying Andy Panda's for my daughter who loved anything Panda related. I bought almost all of the Four Colors Panda;s for her I also got an even earlier Andy that was a tall skinny book AJD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been at least a couple of really active bidders on high-grade Duck books listed on Heritage's Sunday auctions. If it's only two people, then prices may trend down once they move on. But it's also possible that Heritage's international reach has brought a number of new collectors into the Duck market. Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The census topping FC 456 (US 2) 9.4 (white) I sold recently garnered a strong price from a domestic collector in a private sale. The other FC 456 9.4 (white) sold around 10 years ago to a European collector in a private sale. So foreign collectors have been around for quite a while in the Duck area, there are still active domestic Duck collectors, and both are willing to pay strong prices for "rare in grade" books in non-auction settings.

Very true. I often wonder if the DD #26 CGC 9.2 highest graded that Metro had for a couple of years finally sold at the asking price, ~$5200, or if it went back into the original owner's collection. Extremely tough book to find in 9.0 or higher with only (5) 9.0s and (1) 9.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Uncle Scrooge #6 is also hard to find in grade. A raw 7.0 sold on Heritage for over $1,000 recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
