Post your Silver Age DC key books

[skybolt]

Beautiful books guys.

Skybolt, VERY impressive that Wonder Woman 105. I've been trying to find a mid-grade for a while with no luck. Congrats.

 

Thanks innocuous,

 

I also had a hard time locating this mid grade copy about 3-4 years ago. It took me about a year to find one.

Since we are doing Legion appearances and since I never get tired of this book, here is the 6th Legion appearance plus the first appearance of several Legionnaires:

 

 

Danny, this book looks far too nice for an 8.0 grade. What downgrades it from an 8.5 or better?

Thanks for showing these books from your collection. I would really like to see your whole Jimmy Olsen run, if you ever get time to post so many!

Okay Ian, just for you...here is the *unslabbed* scan of the Action 276 (now you know how much I love these books, I break every one of them out!). I honeslty cannot see anything other than a tiny little corner tear on the bottom of the spine. That probably knocked it from a 9.0-9.2 to the 8.0 that it got. Here it is:

 

 

and here is a super magnified corner shot to show you what knocked it down:

 

 

sell me books like this everyday

 

 

It's still a tremendous book for an 8.0 grade. Thanks for the info, Danny, as I could not see how it graded so.

First appearance of a lesser Legion member. More importantly, I think it is the last pure Superboy cover in Adventure Comics.

Character named "Thor" with a Magic Hammer by Kirby (8/57,unlike later Thor)

Nova Scotia Copy

 

WOW!!! What an incredibly difficult comic to find in HG. As a Kirby collector, I've been looking for a decent copy for some time. Congrats!

Great Thread everyone - All the books I wish I had!

 

Now, who has the most undervalued mega SA DC key? The 1st Robin In Shock Corner pose?

[innocuous]

Which one is that? I thought the shock corners started in the GA?

 

Awesome on that 9.1 JLA 1. My BB54 is a liberated 9.0.
