Nice looking Roy Rogers Giant. Canadian books are hard to find in this kind of condition. You should contact Stephen Lipson about this if you haven't already.

 

We've chatted a few times, even prior to this find :)

 

Stephen really, really knows his stuff!!!

WOW, Wall-Crawler Great score! I just looked up the Roy Rogers Comics Giant Edition - 1947 on Ebay. What a find!

 

Thanks...I was more than a little excited/please to say the least.

 

I have learned so much since joining the boards, sometimes the hard way but I have learned about Whitmans, price variants, Canadian editions/whites...And STILL so much to learn!

 

The knowledge on this board is astounding.

Do you guys ever see comics listed in garage sale listings? I've never seen it and I browse the ads weekly.

 

I go to garage sales nearly every week and what i do the night before is check Craig's List/garage sales. Make sure you search the day you're planning to go out. I will type in the search box Comic Books or Comics. It will bring up any ads that have those words in the description.

 

A good day to search is Wednesday night for Thursday sales as a lot of estate sales run Thursday thru Sunday.

Kid free this week. I saw a sign in a local used vinyl shop that said they also sell books and collectibles. I asked about comics and was shown some longboxes with $1 each written on the front.

I bought 30 books, these are the standouts. I love Jim Balent's rendition of Bane. His take is right up there with Nolan and Aparo's in my opinion.
