I got the best three (thumbs u My biggest regret was there was some guy selling a bunch of GA Batman's on CBG, all high grade. I was skeptical but decide to take a chance and buy one with the plans on buying all if the one looked like it was graded decently. This was pre-scan days. Here is what arrive at what I think was graded a VFN. I called immediately once I saw the book but all the rest were sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Great stuff Ciorac. Amazing find. Well the mailman came today. FINALLY I got a copy of this book. Been drooling over Flex's copy for a while. Hard sucker to find. Been kicking down doors for a while until I found one overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciorac Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 beautiful books, pons! how cool to walk in a lcs and find those. are the first two church books? sure look like it. I thought the same. Went back this morning and bought the remaining high grades from the collection they obtained. At least one of them is a bonafide Church. Two seem to be Big Apple or something like that, the others I'm still researching. I also bought two other, non pedigree, but wonderful books that I will share shortly. An amazing weekend for comics to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larryw7 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Quite surprised to find these stellar copies of some 1940 golden age at a local comic store today.
