ciorac Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Here's one you don't see too often - a Schomburg cover, Gerber 8 no-show. I wasn't actively looking for this book as they usually go for quite a bit, but I saw it listed during the VCC and it's such a cool cover I had to snag it. This copy's low grade, but the cover is complete and it was priced right! Nice score banner! How'd I miss that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikephoen Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 One of my favorite covers. I saw the book and passed because of the grade and have been kicking myself ever since. Great pick up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbanner Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 One of my favorite covers. I saw the book and passed because of the grade and have been kicking myself ever since. Great pick up. Thanks...it wasn't prominent in the listing, and the scan/picture made it appear worse than it was as all the various bends/tears were folded back, etc.,. Next time...the hidden Suspense 3!!

rjpb Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 By the time I saw it - it was gone - I was extremely jealous - but I'm glad to see it went to someone as upstanding as Dr.Banner And it does look better than the VCC thumbnail indicated. I am still jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not willing to lay out over a grand for a 2.0 copy either, but that doesn't mean I don't want to own one. If you collect esoteric (non-Timely) Schomburg covers, there are a handful of books that stand apart from the others, and this is at the top of the list.

Was even willing to pay sick money for it, but then I cooled off...I still very much would love to own one, but compared to many other books I could buy in the same price range. I just can't or wont pull the trigger on one unless I find a really great deal. I don't know if your the only one, but one of the few. I actually am drawn to the whole run, I think the hard part is, there is no real character to reference or relate to, so they are just a string of great covers. Which I believe makes it harder to choose over say a Cap, MMC, MF, or Batman book. Which can have great covers and a hero and story to relate to.

nearmint Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 All kidding aside, I'm not in the market for one either, but only because of the price level the book has reached. Same reason I'm not in the market for an Exciting #28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really drawn to this book but its one of those books you can likely make a $1,000+ in a short period of time just because of the demand.
