Robot Man Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Man those early Prize comics are so cool with Green Lama and Frankenstein. Real good contents. I'm piecing the run together a little at a time but they are hard. I think I have an Okajima and of course a "Paul" copy. If you want a real challenge, try to find the Double Detective Pulps that the Lama appeared in before the comic. I've also got the club kit!

podboy66 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 This one closed out the year, I'll need to upgrade at some point but will make a nice placeholder. I almost bought a mid grade copy 20 years ago from a SNE catalog but I bought some silver age Marvels instead. I think this cost me 4x as much......

CrocHntr Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 I don't recall if I've posted these pre-slab or not, but I just got these two back from CGC: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Yep it's an official "Paul" book! I remember seeing it in one of the boxes. I should have bought it but there were so many more I wanted more at the time. Glad it went to you Bill because you are a true spoon Tracy fan. Oops, I am learning. Don't say the D word. The people you bought it from are the buyers of this collection. Thanks for the confirmation brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhwolfman Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 These books are for Ciorac. I know you have an obsession with "Paul" books too. Ed didn't originally find the collection. He was just one of the first buyers. I got about 100 of them after Ed. Here ais a sampling of some of the cooler ones:There were a lot of DC's Some nice Schomburg Nedors: (some not marked "Paul") So, you bought these after Ed Had already been there? I always wondered why Ed Didn't take everything. Does this guy still have anything? I know Jim bought some after you did.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Hi Howard. Yeah they kept finding more in other boxes. Ed never saw them. He only got one shot at them. Jim and I were the other 2 major buyers. They sold some at Glendale which is where I met them. It took me quite a while to get into the collection. They put a lot on eBay before I knew about them. Jim has been selling his part. I think he's got a decent pile left. I got a bunch of his as well. The sellers did't like giving dealer discounts (I don't blame them). I got real friendly with them and got pretty good deals. I was mostly buying the "cheap in guide" books for my self. I did'nt even look at any of the SA/BA or pulps although I did get a few good pulps. Man it was fun and nail biting. There are a couple dealers that weren't to happy at me for "holding out" but I knew the sellers didn't want to work with dealers and I didn't want to upset them.

Tell Jim to give me a shout if he is still looking to unload some When I was looking at Jim's Hall , I saw Jumbo, Fights ,Wings Also some other oddball stuff. I think All the Schomberg titles were gone and he didn't get any superhero. Bob would know better than I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Yeah, you are right but he did get quite a few DC superhero. I bought a Sensation from him a couple of weeks ago at Long Beach. I don't know what he still has but I do know he has some left. I will give him a call tomorrow and check with him. He would be about the only one who has some for sale. Joe and Bonnie are pretty cleaned out of GA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
