I will ask GAtor a question along the same lines. Between tec62 and 69, which would you go for and why ?

Tec 69 is a personal fav and better cover imo

 

I am looking to pick up at least one or two Joker covers (for now). I too find the 69 to be a really cool cover. Hook me up with a copy then please Rick. 7.5+

 

Sold mine more than a year ago

 

:(

 

what grade ?

better than 7.5 (thumbs u

Hey G.A.tor,

If you had to choose between Superman 2 and Action Comics 23, which would you pick and why? (Assuming same grade, page quality etc.)

Action 23 all day. Uncommon, first lex, high demand.

 

Action 12 or 14, and why please

12. Better cover, cooler zatara story, scarcer in the market

Action 7 or Bat 1 and why por favor. Bill, hold your thoughts :)

Bat 1 is the better book. Action 7 more valuable at this point in time

action 1s driving the 7s up. 1st Joker vs. 2nd Supe cover..no doubt, Bat 1 is the better book cover to cover. Tough call.

Both great books. #62 for being the first Joker cover, and #69 for being one of the best Joker images of all time. You need both!

 

Think you're right Jeff. (thumbs u

Depends on what you're asking. Which book is more important, or which book will rise higher in value. Batman #1 is, in my mind, clearly the more important book.

G.A. tor:

 

Have you ever owned or even seen a copy of Adventures of the Dover Boys #2? It has a Scarcity Index No. of 5 in Gerber, but there's no picture of it. I'm fairly sure I've never seen one.

never owned or seen hm

Does it actually exist? No listing on GCD. It's in Overstreet, but I think he has a few phantom books in there for copyright purposes.

I have no idea whether it was one of Bob's intentional phantom books, but I'm guessing that it doesn't exist.

G.A.tor,

So all things being equal, how much does a books pedigree increase the value of a book? (i.e. two books with same grade, but one book is a Larson copy.)

I believe it absolutely is more desirable in most every case but I never seen a consistent % value increase.
