Yes, Definitely... However, to be fair I'd have to say that 20 years ago Richard was great to buy from if you talked to him on the phone. I always got amazing discounts from him, and I agreed with his grades on the vast majority of what I bought. Nacca...eh...not so much... Joe doesn't grade well at all, and Joe doesn't care if he sells his books. That's why he prices them so high... So, I'm sure you know who my favorite mail order dealer is...and because Jimmy is such a dinosaur, and pays little attention to hype, Internet forums, and trends, he will probably continue to grade the same and sell at guide until he retires...and I'm happy about that.

Popular Post gadzukes Posted March 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2022 All-American 19 - Coverless, missing 6 wraps, but it has the full 1st appearance of the GA Atom so that's not too bad. I found it mixed in with a coverless GA lot. GreatCaesarsGhost, Robot Man, D84 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the book that sucked me back into the golden age in 1993. I had been happily collecting Spiderman's, and hadn't purchased a GA book in about 18 years. That all changed when I found my Superman #24. Edited March 19, 2022 by Tri-ColorBrian goldenacase, szucchini, D84 and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ThothAmon Posted March 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2022 Had this one a long time. I was thinking what my “pedigree” would be named by my heirs and I’ve settled on “Last Call Collection”. Of course CGC would have to greatly broaden the definition of pedigree.
