This thread needs a bump. Recent Acquisition.

 

 

 

Hmm, that book looks very familiar....

 

I think I have half of your books now. If I can just get my hands on your 137 and 139.

 

 

I am very happy they went to a good home!

Here is another that I have not posted. Back in the 70s, this was the first 12 cent book I ever owned. It was a rag but for a 12 year old, it was a prized possesion. It ranked right up there with my George Brett and Pete Rose rookie cards.

I distinctly remember the first 12-center I ever owned. I felt like I had a key to the Smithsonian.

Stunning book with a Ross Andru cover to boot!!

[Flash105]

The scan is pretty dark as well. The purples really jump off the cover.

 

Although that samarai sword must be pretty dull if you could suspend a 180 lb man by his clothes. It certainly is not as sharp as Kevin Costner's sword in the Bodyguard.

Did you get a good price for that 9.6? I was amazed that I got this 9.4 for only $111 !!

Was that also my 9.6?

[Flash105]

I bought it last Oct. for 325.00. I thought that was pretty fair for a 9.6 pedigree. There is a white paged 9.8 out there that sold for 837.00 on Heritage last August. I am happy with my PC.

I picked up the 7.0 today. So, here's the latest group shot. Please don't say I have a problem.

I went and grabbed the earliest flash scans that I had. I have the 108 but guess it is not yet scanned. not sure about the 111

 

 

[jmg3637]

and here are the showcase copies

 

[KirbyJack]

Bravo! Sterling collection!

[JohnT]

Awesome. The Showcases are fantastic!

[Flash105]

Those are great. I am partial to the number 14 as the best of the four.

[jmg3637]

I think the showcase 13 was the hardest one to get.

 

the 123 was one of my first mini grails. I was thrilled to get my first copy in trade 20+ years ago when I was doing shows.

[peewee22]

So who's your fave S-hero ?

[jmg3637]

Actually my Favorite hero Is Superman, but Flash is a close second.

 

I just loved the cross over with the golden age characters. Thye were my favorite as a kid and I have always tried to collect those issues.

The 13 does seem like it comes up less often, but 14 is my favorite cover of the four....by far.

Flash 106 is my fave SA DC cover !! I noticed someone was looking for one today advertised on their posts in 9.0. Could be a long wait...
