I know the Oakland Collection doesn’t always get a lot of respect because it only goes back to the mid 60s. And nobody would ever claim that it’s the same league as the Curators, WMs, or PCs. That said, I think it’s a pretty great collection. They’re structurally beautiful and also have good gloss and colors.
Looking back, I think that Vincent Z., Mike C., and Bob S. did a great job on grading the collection. Almost every Oakland book I’ve submitted to CGC came back with the same grade (or better) as listed on the original labels.
To buy the books when Vincent first got the collection, I played hooky from work and took the longest subway ride ever to his parent’s place in Far Rockaway. I still think it was worth every second on the A train.
