Jaydogrules Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 $17,925 achieved. Do we pass 19k? http://comics.ha.com/itm/silver-age-1956-1969-/showcase-4-the-flash-dc-1956-cgc-fn-60-off-white-to-white-pages/a/7099-91501.s Almost par for what an AF15 in grade goes for Not too sure about that. That 6.0 AF 15 in the CC auction could flirt with $30k. -J. 2014 (1) $25,000Hi 2013 (1) $17,925Hi 2012 (6) $22,108Hi $17,533Lo Not many sales to to compare but falls right in line with those points... Where it stands now it really is closer to being somewhere in the middle of more recent 5.0 and 5.5 AF 15 sales results. Still not bad though. (thumbs u -J.

Diamonddave Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Got a line on a Showcase 4 with a popped staple, back cover has three large tears and one huge section missing from the nutty putty ad. Front cover has 1 thumb sized section missing, water staining is evident, pages look tan to brittle. Seller wants 3.5K, probably grade out at a 1.8. To buy or not to buy?

Hulksdaddy1 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 $3500 is a little strong IMO. I'd offer $2500, go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjum12 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 My friend Mark, an LCS owner, has a 6.5(p) CGC copy of Showcase 4 at his shop for $ 5000. It has some fill in at the top and bottom of the spine, a little color touch there, and a staple tear seal. It was probably a 5.0 or better before the work and actually looks almost VF now. If anyone is interested, I can put you two together. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the book and wouldn't buy it. I'd love to see a pic of the book. There are some 1.0.-1.5 copies on ebay right now and they are listed for around 5k. If the book in question is truely a 1.8, $3,500 doesnt seem too bad I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman2006 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 ComicConnect bidding on the 8.5 Mohawk Valley copy of Showcase #4 is up to $48K with 11 days to go. It's a sharp looking 8.5 IMO. It will be interesting to see where it ends up at! http://www.comicconnect.com/bookSearch.php?title=showcase&issue=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ft88 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 How do they not show the back cover on the other two Showcases? A $7 or $70 books, OK fine. But a $7000+ book, even graded should show the back cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 That and grade trimmed books with tape all over them as fine. Pure fantasy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaSealed Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Check CC's listing on the trimmed one again. Someone changed the grade and description. Originally labeling that book a fine was a pretty gross misrepresentation of the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
