Dick Pontoon Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm still about 16 issues short of the whole run, but I just finished 1-10 of Tales of Suspense this past week. #1, 3, 5 and 7 came from other board members. Frankie will probably be working on his 1949 Timely run by the time I finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have this completed before I get the final 30 something comics I need for the implosion up thing. Great picture! Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the Batman #121 in 9.0 is out of reach for now..... Here is an updated group shot with three new books that were waiting for my when I got back home after a week and a bit out of town. Looks like I did not really need to buy the higher grade copies of Batman #155 and #171 after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Bronze age fan* Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Picked out four comics to send in with my yearly grading coupon. Hate having to choose the four comics every year. Such a hard decision. What do you guys think on the selections? And here is wishing luck on the grades. Something I see on the TTA #13 has me a little worried.

Dick Pontoon Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Well, I prefer them in their natural state, but if you're going to slab those are fine choices! The Hulk #3 seems to be the odd man out though; what about another pre-hero or TGK #60 or RK #22? Something less common than the Hulk? Or if going for a superhero, a bigger book? On the TTA #13, is that chipping or a reflection? Looks like it presents nicely regardless and they seem to grade that book gently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked the Hulk #3.....cause I have all the other issues of the #1-6 run graded. . Kinda wanna keep them all together. That might be retarded....but that was the only reason I picked it out. . No chipping on the TTA #13. But inspecting them before sending them out....has me worried about if there may be resto on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Pontoon Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 That makes sense then. Where do you think the resto is? I assume there's no CT bleed though. Worst case scenario it will be 1 of only 3 on the census! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst case scenario it will be 1 of only 3 on the census! The lower right side word balloon. On the outside edge. Looks like water damage in that area. Not sure if the moisture damage weakened the paper to make the red show through a bit. Or if someone hit it with red. It's not 100%. Just something that made me stare at it when I was inspecting them before sending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makeminemego Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 a few somewhat early Marvels for my wall display. Average grade is around 5.0 with nothing lower than 3.5 and nothing higher than 7.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope no sunlight is getting into the room, would hate to see any of those sweet comics get faded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongkorn Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Thanks Bronze Age. The room gets very indirect light in the room. And the glass isn't conservatory museum but blocks 99% uv TruView glass. I just couldn't lock them away, I need to see them everyday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
