I'm truly honored (worship)

 

The gauntlet has been thrown, the challenge accepted :insane:

 

Seriously dude, you have a couple of great sets going there.

I want to see the day when they are completed. (worship)

 

Thanks for the compliment, Sammy :foryou:

I have some raws that I need to get sent in for grading soon. I still need copies of 1,3,17,22,50,66,71, and 103 to have the full run. Maybe in 2015 I will get lucky enough to find some nice copies.

I saw it. Glad I got my 6.5 a while ago, since all grades of this book are moving up. I'm also happy with my recently graded 5.0 undercopy I bought a few years ago for $150.

I paid just a tad more for my 6.0 last year :grin:

I just moved past 70k points on my 1-104 registry set. :banana:

 

Congratulations Sam :golfclap:

You have a really wonderful collection !

 

In the meanwhile, I missed three issues I was looking for and couldn't reach the 30k points :sorry:

Thanks guys for the compliments. I should be sending off my 12, 20, and 96 raws next week to be graded. I'll keep you posted with results.

 

I'm stocking up on copies for a group submission for the second part of my registry set. I just bought a #97, #98 & #99 off FlyingDonut, and I have a #62 & #100 waiting to go to CGC as well. So until I've accumulated 15 books to makeup a bulk submission - I'm in the market for #63, 66-96, 101-104.

It's been a long time since I posted here, so here goes,

I picked up yet another Showcase #16, this one from eBay.

I couldn't resist bidding on it, after how hard I discovered it was to find a high grade copy. I'm probably going to end up sending this to CGC, but I'm tempted to post it in the PGM thread to get some opinions.

I'll post the cover here anyway:

Nice book, at a glance, and no BC scan, it looks to be 7.0ish. Pages look nice also. Congrats.

 

Thanks! I added the back cover scans.

 

I got this from Collectors_Comics on eBay, who I believe have had some criticisms lobbed their way. I don't know if they are justified, this was my first purchase from them - so hopefully no surprises. There's a very light stain on the top-right back cover.
