multicynic Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I forget the grade on this. I could never find a nice copy before so I'm glad I got this one with the set. My favorites are the Superman World War 2 covers. The books seem to be well perserved. I usually see the 18 with quite a bit of tanning. What is the grade ? 7.0 I just checked. Off White to white.

agro23 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 This finally came in from a Heritage Sunday sale in November: Cover is attached and tight, pages are off white. They graded it Fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seank Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Looks like Heritage got the grade right. As great as the front cover is, I love the back cover. Pilot Clark's little girl narrowly avoids disaster and look at that greedy doctor taking all of poor little Patsy's money. Tootsie Rolls for all... if he was truly generous he would have set that leg for free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agro23 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Awesome book! Are you still going after all the gerber cover books? Yep. Every single one I can afford at any rate. I haven't updated my list since this and the Planet #1 came in but I think I'm passed 60%. I'm getting onto the $$$ books now though so it's slowing down. I think next year's big acquisitions will be The Mask #1 and Blue Beetle #54. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttock Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Prize 7 has to be one of the hardest GA minor key's to find. There hasn't been one available to my knowledge in 5 years. The last copy on Ebay went for something like 5 X guide. #20, on the other hand, despite being a Gerber no-show, is probably the easiest to find now. Go figure. I'm very jealous Jon.

Inaflash Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 When I initially saw them I suspected Superman and Batman from 50 up would grade high. There were lots with overhangs that CGC didn't encapsulate due to overhang. Jack You have some really beautiful books. Were there any DC sci-fi titles in the collection?
