jbcomicbox Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 'tec 27 Your right, Jon, books like these are beyond the reach of many, even lower grade or restored books. Marvel Comics # 1, Action Comics # 1 and the Detective Comics # 27 are grails for a reason. You've got at least two out of three. Dare I ask,......do you, ahem,......have an Action Comics # 1 too? ....matter of fact, I do..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 Jon, if you don't mind my asking, knowing how extensive your collection is, are there books you are still looking for and acquiring or are you satisfied with your collection as is? Are there some collecting goals you had starting out or decided upon in the meantime that you have still to accomplish (after all those years)? I am asking you because I know once I am done with my March '52 project, there are quite a few other goals that are solidifying in my mind that I hope I can then embark on and I'd like the insights of a "veteran". And I am also asking these questions to others here such as Adam, Fuelman, RHG, 123ksk, tth2, HarveyDude, ... or anyone else. Should we put a limit? such as: only answer this question if you have been collecting for over X years: let's say 20 years. We can relax that if only few of us have been at it this long. Thanks for any answer you can provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
