my experience in making the call on which ones are hard and which aren't is limited, as i'm less than a year into this fox thing---BUT it seemed to me this was a rarely seen one, and when it went up on ebay with a buy it now a couple weeks ago, i jumped on it.

 

thanks surfer.

Thanks to Roy for knocking this one off my wantlist. Only one issue left to go in the Whitman mini-run.

I give it 3 months in your collection before you sell it. lol

 

You golden age guys are as fickle with your "grails" as a modern variant collector.

 

Still, a really cool and interesting book. :applause:

Glad it finally made it! I'm always amazed at the little details these GGA artists put into these works...stuff like the "tiny' air pocket between her ribs at the lower hem of her her top, or the green garter showing on the right leg of the girl on Fantastic Comics #4, or ...well you get the idea!

It's not just you though. I have noticed a lot of golden age collectors go nuts over a book and then sell it soon after. I am occasionally guilty of it myself...though I only ever had one book that I considered a grail, my Mask 2, and that will never be sold.

 

The one that takes the absolute cake is the guy who made a post about how he had been waiting for a 9.0 copy of ASM 13 for forever, and how this was his grail that he wanted more than anything. The book popped up in the marketplace THE SAME FREAKIN DAY. That one about knocked me out of my chair.
