Anyone know who picked up the FF #8 @ 9.4 in the Mound City Auction? Sweet Book!

 

And how about the #6 9.4...only 3 graded copies (including that one) in 9.4...only 1 higher... :o

 

I just got out my FF Omnibus last night and noticed that FF 6 has the unique distinction of being the first appearance of the Yancy Street Gang....not noted in OSPG. There was also a letter in FF 12 where a fellow in California offered to accept bids on copies of a "small supply" of all the FF's in fine to mint condition. I also noticed how Chic Stones inking style bears a strong resemblance to Chris Rule's style from the pre hero period. I wonder if one may have been a pen name for the other. I must admit I don't know much about either. GOD BLESS...

OSPG was still 8 years away. Here's a book I jst picked up in a part trade/part cash deal. I traded my FF 8 CGC 7.0 plus some cash for it. The 7.0 was one of the nicest 7.0's I've ever seen but it had a rusty staple that bugged me. The line by the Puppet Master's head is a scanner glitch, as is the blotchiness. GOD BLESS...
