PovertyRow Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Finally got power back so here are some more from the Mass run I recently acquired. Somehow, sfilofsa, when you say you "got your power back", I feel it is more than electricity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namisgr Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Beautiful books Sfilosa!! I don't know a lot about the Mass. pedigree. What's the history of this original owner collection? I've read a bit from Matt Nelson as well and am looking forward to his book - I personally find the pedigree stories fascinating. The Massachusetts pedigree was discovered by Marnin Rosenberg. It is an essentially complete run of Marvel, DC, and Gold Key comics from 1960-1975. Mass Pedigree story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Dude Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 This may not be my newest pedigree but I thought I would post it anyway. I was always fond of Plastic Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfilosa Posted September 11, 2004 Author Share Posted September 11, 2004 That's a keeper!!!! 9.8 and White pages!!! Unbelievable. Plus it has the war rationing stigma, one staple right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmg3637 Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 the history makes this one of my favorite pedigees. Working as an actuary in pensions makes the IRS collection have a bit of extra meaning. as far as books that I have,I think that the big apple is the one that I have most of (probably because I have not had to pay much of a premium to get those) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfilosa Posted September 12, 2004 Author Share Posted September 12, 2004 Here's a picture of the whole Mass run (Strange Tales #136-168). Unfortunately, I will probably be breaking it up as I upgrade a few of the books that weren't 9.4's or 9.6's. Of the run: 1 CGC 8.0 1 CGC 8.5 3 CGC 9.0 3 CGC 9.2 16 CGC 9.4 9 CGC 9.6 28 had White pages with the other 5 having Off-white to White. Lastly, there definitely is a consistency that runs through out the whole run. The cover, gloss, clean back covers, etc. makes them slightly more then the sum of their parts (in my opinion).

Red Hook Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 That is FABULOUS! Sorry you're gonna break it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze-man Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 SF.. noo.... Dont break it up. You can upgrade.. but keep your run together, please? I think you would be remiss if you broke it up. No harm in having a few double's, in HG if that is your want. Z Really nice set either way. Impressive. BlowUpTheMoon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tth2 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Sgt Fury! Maybe you got on the Subby too, but I wasn't following that auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathlok Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 (edited) Sgt Fury! Maybe you got on the Subby too, but I wasn't following that auction. I think because Matt Mark made the mistake of not mentioning the Northland pedigree in the title. Many people probably passed by it without a thought.

tth2 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 You mean Mark, right? I think you're absolutely right. White pages and Northland pedigree, swe-e-et pick up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmg3637 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 My newest pedigree. got it in the mail about 10 days ago I think I have about 6 Big apple's. I guess I have more Calvins than any other pedigree. I bought about 20 2-in a-bag Classics along with a cardboard stand to hold them in. I have those on display in my office. Not quite a spinner rack but pretty close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
