DJones Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Joe Giella inked many JLA books from the early 70's. He'll be at Eternal Con next month. http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=8621147#Post8621147 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin76 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Got this today, such a hard book to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MintyMint Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I tell ya, I'm really liking these Don & Maggie books. They are so fresh in hand. I assumed the books were bought 2nd hand because of the 'collection' designation but I wonder if they bought some of these directly off the stands ? Just seeing this thread as well as Bob's comment and agree big time! I picked up the 9, 12, 32, 37, 50 & 51 and they are all really sharp. Look at this one for example: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed the books were bought 2nd hand because of the 'collection' designation but I wonder if they bought some of these directly off the stands ? I would say Don and Maggie brought them from the rack . ...that's right. The term "collection" is just part of the name of the Pedigree, which it is. There were a few bought second hand...... but piles and piles and piles of them were bought off the rack and lovingly stored. I believe there was a decent write up in the Heritage catalog in which the books first began appearing in earnest. I've got it laying around somewhere.

Only comics released before that date would likely have been bought second hand. Did the Don and Maggie collection have a lot of esoteric titles - e.g. Charlton, Archie, Harvey, Dell, funny animal, war, western, romance - or was it largely Marvel and DC superhero comics like all too many other pedigrees?

jimjum12 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) I seem to recall Maggie's first comic being an early issue of Mad, when it was still a comic. They both had collections when they met.

paperheart Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Justice League #24 CGC 9.4 in CC auction at $3200. Someone wants this in the worst way, especially given it looks like a 9.2 through the Newton rings. Edited August 30, 2016 by paperheart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I'll say - that is more than twice what I paid for my 9.4 just over a year ago. That being said, it is a hard issue to get in high grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLA Brad Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Yeah, the last time I can recall a JLA 29 in 9.4 or above coming to auction was back in 2012...when it sold for $1,335!!!!! It is a key JLA issue...apparently someone else wanted it almost as bad as I did and bid me up way more than I thought was going to be necessary. To think I missed out on the 9.6 copy 5 years ago when it sold for under $4K! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperheart Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) JLA 29 9.4 for $6,200 i'll have to live w/ my 9.2 purchased at 1/15th the price Edited September 2, 2016 by paperheart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Nothing wrong with a 9.2...it was better than what I had until 24 hours ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLA Brad Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 JLA #39 9.6 just sold for $3,100 !!! It's not like I didn't try to win it, I just didn't think a crazy $3,000 bid would be beat...BUT it was! Oh well, this is one I don't mind missing out on.
