G.I. Combat #9 HELP

[Paratrooper]

I am curious, does anyone either own a copy of have a scan of one. The Gerber guides have a pic, but it's too small. I also want to see how many on this board actually own one.

[Paratrooper]

Not a single reply, all you high end dealers out there don't have any.....I think I'm starting to prove my point that G.I. Combat #9 is rare as a $3 bill. Hell, I've been talking to Bob "BLB" and even he doesn't have one. Whiz #17, BAH! try find a GIC #9

I have a scan of a copy that I sold last year.

I will post it in a bit for you.

sweet, your rock. Trying to create a digital archive of all the trooper covers seeing as how I probably can't afford all of them. Have you seen another copy since you last sold yours?

[flatrock02]

Vaughn,

No,

I did not know how rare it was when I sold it.Bought read it and sold it. I love to read the old war comics.

It was pretty low grade but all there. Bought it and several other early GI Combats at an auction in PA. if I remember correctly.

Here is my scan

Pic saved, thanks a ton! Now to track one down, I have Bob Beerbohm asking his contacts for one...even he doesn't have a copy, which is surprising.

The Salida copy, a cracked-out CGC 7.0 (white pages).

Holy *spoon*! How much?

Beautiful!

I know of a fellow board member who once sold a Salida for 13x Guide, and has regretted every day of his life since. Seriously, it sounds like the sun shines a little less brighter in his world because of it.

 

This boardie also sells and trades books on a whim, whereas I have never had the horro -- er, pleasure.

 

So ... what would be a fair multiple for someone in my situation? 25x Guide? 50x Guide? (And at what point does such price gouging turn me into a gypsy, tramp, and/or thief?)

 

So what does everyone think? Should I bust my selling cherry?

Well, Paratrooper has been pretty clear that paratrooper covers are his collecting obsession. About as much as Salidas are yours. It is a quandry.

Not really, considering there is but one Salida copy.

 

75x Guide!! And not a penny less!

Well, there was only one WM copy of WDC&S 139, and I still sold it to you for less than 75X Guide.

That's why I dumped the WDC&S 139 on you.
