Sqeggs Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Bang, bang, Prada on my zipper, now I'm feeling jipper, I'm jipper, I'm jipper Heritage mailed it to me before I paid Woot! Maybe to even things out, I should start paying them for books I didn't actually win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I'd save time and put them in one group shot..I'll try to get some individual shots up later on..

Well, I CAN say I don't have a 1st born anymore. nearmint is evidently going to raise him as a wizards apprentice or so he says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nearmint Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Wow, I'd love to know what trade books it took to pry those beauties from him. pretty sure a new Mutants 98 is involved House of Secrets #92 CGC 9.0 and this beauty. This is my second big trade in recent months, and it's great to acquire a cool book or two without having to outlay a bunch of cash. Randall was great to negotiate with, and we both seem to be very happy with the deal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great looking Batman 9 Jeff and Randall got one of the, if not THE, best Superman cover of the run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gino2paulus2 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Not even in the same ballpark as some of these recent acquisitions but I think its hanging around in the parking lot waiting to get in to cheer on the big guns...My personal favorite of the Cat-Man covers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyFish Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Great Batman 9 and that's a pretty sweet Catman 2-- I love the bust up drawing of him in the upper left corner which makes up for the fact that the figure on the cover is seen only from the back (I don't know why they did that so often in the Golden Age). Nice colors on both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Some more additions to the pile. I already had two of these but the covers of the new copies are in better shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall was great to negotiate with, and we both seem to be very happy with the deal... I'm very happy with the deal. It was time to rehome the 9. I've enjoyed it for many years and now it's Jeff's turn. I will miss it, though. That was the second copy of that book I have ever owned. The 1st came from a stash an old farmer had brought in to a comic book store I frequented. A raw (obviously) 5.0 or so. Over 30 years ago, my 1st wife considerately tore it nearly in half during an argument. Cold blooded. That "stash" the farmer brought in had Batman #52 back to #1. There were 2 #3's, 3 #2's and (Gulp) 3 #1's in that bag. All raw. All Bat-books. The owner egged me on all the way to the bottom of the bag. I could not believe it. I got the 9 for $60. The store owner was elated about that bag. She offered me one of the #1's - my choice - for (drum roll) $3000. Which is likely what she paid for the whole bag. I didn't have $3,000 as a 20 year old kid and no access to $3,000. Now, 33 years later, I don't have $100,000. War stories, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nearmint Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Great story, Randall. The #9 is enjoying it's new home next to my Batman #18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
