Silver Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 You know, I'm sad to say that I've been unable to find any Sugar and Spikes in quite a while. In fact none of the major auction houses have had any slabbed issues of any consequence on the sites in a while. And I can't even remember the last time I saw a slab or high-grade issue on eBay. I'm aware of one or two more high-grade copies that a few dealers have in their inventory that would fill in holes in my run, but after that, there's nothing really out there. I'm beginning to feel like once I hit around 60 issues it's going to be a major struggle to gain anymore. On the bright side I did just score a super nice Superboy 1 and completed that collection. 1950's war comics and FoggyNelson 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1950's war comics Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Don't despair Silver.. your initial instincts were correct, collect 20-25 high grade issues and call it good, but your completest mindset took over, i am the same way... This set is too hard and probably just not available to complete in high grade but each and every issue you add from this point on will be memorable and great collections are built over time !!

1950's war comics Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 And BTW , your Superboy set is amazing and worthy of a CGC recognition award !! , it has the best info per individual comic i have seen yet in the registry, (i tried to copy your registry style LOL) FoggyNelson, Lucky Baru and ComicConnoisseur 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1950's war comics Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Silver has hit a temporary road block wall due to the almost impossibility of attaining this complete set in high grade................... Silver was instrumental in my really taken a liking to this great set myself and fortunately i am OK with lower grade goodness, and even then this set is still quite tough to find i hope to start a registry set soon... just numbers 1-30, here are some potential submissions Silver, FoggyNelson and Lucky Baru 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 Unless my math if off I am now 56/98 or 57% complete. I Need 12 issues to have 38-98...which might be about as good as I can expect, earlier issues are so difficult to find, and there are a coupe of us actively seeking them. Oh well, the journey is the destination! FoggyNelson and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
