batman_fan Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 It's been a long time coming for this one. Currently this is the highest census, but that won't last as it will soon be tasting sweet mylar. Now that is what I would call one amazing book! Talk about a scarce issue! Congrats, you must be flying high! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttock Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Now that is what I would call one amazing book! Talk about a scarce issue! Congrats, you must be flying high! Thanks, I'm pretty giddy about it! This GA stuff is getting harder & harder to find. I often find myself thinking, "I'll never get a copy of that". So when something like this comes up, I feel lucky just to get a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spillred Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Exciting Comics #59 January 1948 Airbrush cover by Alex "Xela" Schomburg This book has been high on my want-list ever since I saw a tiny b&w version years ago in some old Overstreet guide, but I never found a nice copy. Well this showed up on Metropolis and I clicked the "Buy Now" button about 10 seconds later. 3 days from order to my doorstep and all is well -- thanks guys. Airbrush cover and a fetching Judy of the Jungle story drawn by Frazetta SOLD Shameless plug - this frees up a presentable VG+ undercopy, PM if you're interested SOLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agro23 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 She looks like she's worth more than some sparkling beads. He's ripping that native off! Unless there is something going on that he hasn't disclosed. He's not trading for her. It's for the pristine OO collection of minty GA in the hut behind her. Still a good deal though.
