A white pager no less!

 

[Flash105]

A very hard book in any decent grade.

 

[Flash105]

And a 106 to boot.

 

[Speedy-D]

Man, that is a sweet 106!

[Hepcat]

Oh man! I wish I wasn't so broke these days.

 

I guess I have to work harder and smarter.

Man, that is a sweet 106!

 

All four of them are unusually nice copies for such tough books in grade...

 

Are these the OP's books, perhaps??

 

And at least 2 of them look to have come from the same original collection, with that mysterious "L"...

[Flash105]

Does the writing bother you guys at all or is the just something you have to live with when supply is so limited.

 

They have added a 111 this morning.

I have no alternative but to live with it since the supply is so limited.

 

[burntboy]

Wouldn't bother me at all - it actually looks like "L" was cataloging the actual dates that he purchased them.

 

Gotta go check them out on the link - I have them all already but since I was 11/12 when i bought them they don't look like these...

[burntboy]

Wow - that's some aggressive pricing on some of those babies (up to 6X's guide).

 

the difference in asking prices on the 8.5's is interesting...

[Stevenrams]

Wow! It's been four months since the last scan. No love for The Flash?? Here's a nice presentable and affordable copy that I picked up at Comic-Con last week. For only a bit over a hundred bucks I get a semi-key and one of my personal favorites with beautiful OW or OW/W pages:

That's a very decent copy for the price!

As a kid I obtained a copy of #112 through trade. I don't have one these days though.

What the hell were those graders at CGC smoking when they gave both those comics the same 8.5 grade? The #111 looks like crud compared with the #106. Does providing "objective" grading mean the grading has to be objectively and abjectively out to lunch?

My first Flash! Im starting to get an itch for DC Silver Age keys... and this one came up at a nice price over in the marketplace tonight, presenting beautifully so I had to grab it...

 

Professor Zoom has to be considered Flash's arch-rival yes?

Absolutely! That's a really nice one.

thanks for the link. Now ZOOM is tied for 2nd and just one vote from first.

 

 

 

 

 

[Flash105]

139 Is one my favorites. That was a very nice pick up.

[jmg3637]

I am very glad I got most of my silver age books a long time ago, b4 most collectors were looking for them

 

 

 

 

[Hepcat]

I`m more than intrigued by your early Flashes. For how many years have you been collecting them and other Silver Age DC comics? Where did you find them? Comic cons, mail order?
