tabcom Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 In case my previous post was too cryptic -- it would take 'an offer I can't refuse' to part with the Action Comics #7. The way the comic migrated into my collection took years of perseverance. One day, in the distant future, I'd be satisfied if the comic passes on to tabcom jr. That is if someone doesn't click Buy It! As for marriaging a back cover, I'm unclear what the value of that would bring. A half a grade bump with a green label?

Popular Post podboy66 Posted December 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2020 Purchased a handful of early Actions this year, the difference in the cover art between the non-Superman and Superman covers is striking.

Popular Post BB-Gun Posted December 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2020 I only have a few that belong in the club but most of those early Actions are pretty classy. Burnley did a great job on some of the covers and was a great loss when he switched to Batman. Professor K, Sarg, Larryw7 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My copy i sold in 08 was unrestored 4.5/5.0 and i sold for 8k i think. 2nd picture along with my 2 Bat 1s and 2 Superman 1s and Tec 33 all this before Restoration started to take off. I did get Both Batman 1s Restored and sold the nice Superman 1 to the Dentist and i did have a 3rd copy missing back cover i think i sold to @Drgoldage Gotham Kid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drgoldage Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Hi Harold I picked up a restored Batman 1 from you , it’s hard to tell from the pictures but it might be the copy on the right . I wished I had had the foresight to pick up your Superman 1 with no back cover but no such luck ... I would still have it if I had . I love your pictures and stories post some more when you can !
