That's the issue that has a 10.0 in the census. There seem to be a lot of 9.6s and 9.8s out there as well, which is amazing -- I imagine that must mean it was a warehouse find?

I'm not sure of why there are an abundance of that issue in high grade, but am very happy to have one. I DO know of some particular books like Rawhide Kid 50, Thor 132, Patsy & Hedy 104 & 108, Millie the Model 135 as well as annuals 4 & 5 that were found with high double digit copies in high grade. Some of those issues were sold by Gary Dolgoff at one point. I'm glad that there are some issues out there with plenty of copies in high grade that a collector of average means can afford to own a few copies of. It's a real treat for me to own Silver Age books that look like they're brand new. Sweet Lou 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dig the covers where they're slugging it out, hand to hand like this one. I think they're under the radar right now and have yet to be fully appreciated.

The Mile High II warehouse find had large quantities of uncirculated Thors 132 and 156. The census numbers on these two issues are huge. Which is great, because it costs relatively little to buy near mint copies of two great Lee/Kirby issues.

RayJr Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 To all my Thor brothers/sisters collectors out there, I’m looking for any Thor vol 2 #60-69 CGC. I’m one book away from taking 1st place in that set. Thank you for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet Lou 14 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 That's awesome. To make the title, all they had to do was rearrange the existing letters and make a "D" and an "O." I'm not sure the inverted "A" (with the little extra bar sticking out) really works as a "V," but it's got some personality.

Frisco Larson Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Thanks guys! I really enjoy these Other Nation Editions and have been picking them up when I see them reasonably priced! The house ads are different from American copies and are VERY cool. porcupine48 and RayJr 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
