I finally got around to sending this Sensation in to get the spine roll removed. They did wonders.

Finally finished the set.  I plan to do some upgrading on some of the cards I grabbed to finish the set but I am quite happy.

Nice! Such a great set. My mom threw out all my toys and comics but when my parents moved, they found my Batman and Munsters lunch boxes in the basement. Since I had made such a stink about the other stuff, they put them aside for me. Imagine my surprise when I opened them and found my original set of about 35 of these as well as Civil War News and a couple other partial similar sets I accumulated as a kid. I really should complete them one of these days.

This has always been one of my favorite Archie covers. This copy came from a collection that my LCS scored. The collection had an almost complete run from 1 to 25.

Great book, and so hard to find.  I really miss mine.  Congrats!

That was a big book in the early days of collecting. With the resurgence of Captain Marvel's popularity, maybe it will gain more attention again.

Thank you; like @Larryw7 said, it's had a kind of apocrypha around it for a long time, being so hard to find. I found it in the hands of a generalist collectibles dealer at a large flea market (he happened to be a comic collector and had gotten it in a trade). Finding one under such circumstances, I felt I had to go home with it. So we talked til we came to a number. Comps are tough; Heritage hasn't sold one in five years.
