RareHighGrade Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Tec 29 3.5 @ 60K just listed on CL Is it just me or does that seem like an overly aggressive price on the 'Tec 29? That appears to be more in the price range of a 'Tec 31 if we are using Gator's Price Per Point (PPP) measuring gauge. Have always felt this cover has been relatively underappreciated as compared to the 'Tec 31 cover, but it would still be interesting to see what this book would go for. Although I've always loved Tec 31, I prefer the cover of 29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 29 is less commonly seen as well. Both the 29 and 31 are cornerstone books in the pre Robin run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 29 is less commonly seen as well. Both the 29 and 31 are cornerstone books in the pre Robin run. +1 I would definitely agree with your above statement on these 2 books and their iconic covers. From my point of view, both covers are different from an artistic point of view. While the 'Tec 31 is certainly a more noted cover, to me its overall composition, layout, and the foreboding Batman figure gives this cover a much more classic poster like feel. The 'Tec 29 cover, on the other hand, is much more well done when it comes to the details, although it is definitely not as well detailed as the Flessel cover for Detective 18 which, from my point of view, is a real killer when it comes to the minute details.

Tec 31s are way over $20k+ pp these days. The last Tec31 @ 1.0 sold for $43505 on CC so well over $40k pp!

It had a clutter of date stamps and a full store stamp that was somewhat hidden. I don't think anyone expected the final auction price to hit more than $30k-$35k as a stretch.

The 31 sold for 43K, is that it's new ppp? No to that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
