Marvel Westerns (Silver Age)

7 7

There is a slabbed 9.0 Two-Gun Kid # 60 on eBay right now, thought some boardies who may have otherwise not had seen it, may be interested in bidding.

Just for the record, this is not my auction nor do I know the seller.I would just like this book to get the attention it deserves.

There is only a single bid on it now, 3 days left....

It's a apparent 9.0 with slight resto, the label indicates 2 small dabs of color touch and minor trimming to upper right edge.

Paper quality looks very nice and it is also not a PGX slab, another +1.

If I had not been buying way too much lately, and I also was not looking at an inordinate amount of books I need to send off to CGC, I'd try my luck at biddng on this piece ... <3

That's the best looking copy of that issue I've ever seen.

Unless there are interior or back cover problems, it is undergraded, IMO.

Imagine it without the resto!

It would look great in a mylar..... if someone is just a collector looking for a pretty book. GOD BLESS...

Seller is a board member, too.

Good to hear that.

Yeah, I haven't seen a nicer copy.The grader's notes paint it as a solid 9.0....but it's a helluva nice 9.0.

There was a sharp CGC 7.5 which closed for $1550 about a month or 2 ago.....this book is much nicer, even with the resto.......*kind of*.... that is, it would be much nicer had some dolt not trimmed it.

The grader's notes pasted below, make the resto seem very light.Even the amount of trimming sounds pretty marginal.

The highest grade universal on the census is an 8.5, 2nd highest universal is the 7.5 I referenced above...other than a 9.0 Qualified on the census, this book simply does not exist in the census in 9.0.

I'm very curious to see what this book closes at.....

Hi Guys,

Yes, that is my Two Gun Kid 60 in resto 9.0. Back cover is gorgeous. If anyone has any questions, feel free to let me know. It looks AMAZING in hand. I don't know the source of the resto. I bought it from Tom Kalb as a PGX 9.0 with the same resto mentioned and had it re-slabbed to verify that the trimming on the top of the cover was true. It has a bid on it currently but if someone wants to throw me an offer, I'm all ears.

here are a little group of diamond run kid colts.

Here's my latest addition, which completes the run.

I'm told it's a Circle 8.

tried google but couldn't figure it out-- what is a "Circle 8"?

...try "Circle 8 comic book pedigree"..... if I recall, there is only one entry with significant info. In short, it is a huge collection of distributor returns.... CGC considered it a pedigree at first, then amended it to a warehouse find. GOD BLESS...

Those are beautiful, Straw.

I have Kirby tunnel vision when it comes to Westerns, so it's neat to see later issues.

Never saw that Kid, Pontoon!

Heck of a book!

.... almost the entire book is Don Heck inked by himself....the art is just beautiful. GOD BLESS...

Who picked up the Kid Colt #100 CGC (7.5) off of e-bay the other day? $330 was a steal
