With this thread being a major source of inspiration, I rec'd delivery of my first SA Flash book (from a Boardie) today:

 

 

Now that's what I call a terrific start to a Flash collection.

 

Here are the rest of the Flash cooks I have in the 120's.

Man, what a great time for comics.

Thanks Dale - I wish the book had stronger cover colors, but for the grade, PQ, and price I'm OK with it.

 

You know, I was thinking of limiting myself to the .10centers, but my goodness the covers on these .12centers are truly excellent.

We haven't even gotten to 133 yet...

If it weren't for MiS 90, Flash 133 would probably be my favorite comic cover of all time.

Here's my 134, if only it had not this long crease through the cover. This is another issue I'll have to upgrade one day.

Oh I love your #127! That's another one I need! How/where did you buy that one?

I only remember that I got this at Comic-Con around 2006 or so. I should write down when and from whom I buy my books from now on, because I tend to forget....

Man, what a great time for comics.

 

It was fabulous! And Carmine Infantino's covers on the Flash were a large part of what made it so. Here are four more scans of ones from my collection:

Probably the closest I'll ever come to owning the OA for this cover:

 

 

It's the OA for Infantino's Abra Kadabra entry in DC's Who's Who.

It came with a little overlay of the revised head:

This Twin Cities copy looks awesome in hand.

 

[sacentaur]

It looks awesome in scan too, Bob.

Does the right edge look trimmed?

Could be, but hard to tell without the book sitting flush and lining up the pages.

[Speedy-D]

Yeah. It just seems to sharp up there at the top, relative to the rest of the cover.

[BarryAllen]

Good eye and the more I look at it, the less straight the edge appears. Like it was trimmed by a shaky 90 year old riding over train tracks on a bus.

 

Gut call, but lister has a 14 day return policy.
