This Week in Your Bronze Age Collection!!

35 35

Here are a few of the books I picked up. I like to pick up the Marvel Greatest Comics with the alternate covers whenever I find nice copies.

Love those issues!

Me too! and very hard to find in nice shape.

Yeah those MGCs are great.

another early Blade appearance (and cover).

Tomb of Dracula #42 Suscha News

Miswrap might be a bit of an understatement, but I still like it.

Hard pressed to find another cover to surpass this as my all-time favorite Iron Man cover. D&M book too...

Some pages from the 1975 calendar.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some classic art...

oh, childhood nostalgia. loved this stuff and those giant treasuries!

I actually had two of the '75 calendars growing up. That's how much I loved it. '76 was OK, but I wasn't to crazy about dressing up all the characters in Revolutionary outfits. Thought was a bit silly, but it was the bicentennial so it was easy to forgive. Don't recall if I picked up the '77 one. Definitely didn't opt for the DC one when it came out.

I just picked up a nice run of the Layton/Micheline Iron Mans in 9.4-9.8 (raw). I've sent out the booze cover and first Rhodey to get graded.

Such great books.

So do I!

Treasuries rule!

Totally agree!

Picked these up at the NH show last weekend. Needed an upgrade to my OO Hulk Annual #5, though I think I'd still like a higher grade copy.

In the process of getting one of these as well. I'll post a pic once finalized.

What grade would you give this?

It's a bit of a hike for me. How is that show? Worth making a trip up from CT?

Any trip from CT to NH is worth the nickel . . .

The show was great for me, I walked out with way more than I expected but I think it depends what you’re looking for. I also wound up buying from the usual local dealers, so I’ll bet several at least set up at the CT shows, too. I’m not sure how the dealers did, I got the impression it was on the slow side. Surprisingly, I saw a fair amount of big books there, Hulks #1-5, FF #1, DD #1, other SA keys, etc.

I posted some of the haul in the Silver forum, but also put everything I scanned into this week in your collection.

Was Payette there?

He was not; I think the only show he sets up at is Boston. His son set up several times in Woburn but not always and that show is now defunct.
