Tri-ColorBrian Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 (edited) Can I post a Silver book here? OK, I will...since I just got this thing in the mail. There was a time when I thought I would collect all the Batman's and Detective's, but that time ended in the late '60s. However, I am not against picking up the occasional issue to help fill in the run (which isn't really much of a run) if it is "cheap", so here is my latest issue...and it's also a robot cover...Yay robots!

Tri-ColorBrian Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Guess I forgot to show this May acquisition from a nice boardie...it has that damn CCA stamp on it too, but it's closer to GA than #279...another robot cover...Yay robots!

Jasonmorris1000000 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I think you all might like this one. It's got a Bruce Wayne prototype story in it by Bob Kane which predates Dectective #27. Unfortunately it is not my copy. It belongs to the owner of my LCS and he refuses to sell it. He thinks this comic is insanely undervalued given its historical significance and I'm inclined to agree with him. The owner was nice enough to let me read it before it got sent in to CGC.

That's great--I agree it's undervalued. Interesting that CGC doesn't note the "Bruce Wayne Prototype" or something similar on the label. Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to post Share on other sites

PKJ Posted Monday at 04:56 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:56 PM (edited) Was digging through some books that I had put in the sale at some point box and forgot I had the 51. I love the 42 but truly forgot I bought the 51. Edited Monday at 05:05 PM by PKJ Jasonmorris1000000, ThothAmon, Gotham Kid and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites

I purchased my copy at a flea market/antique shop in New Jersey.
