I'll be getting them graded. On 4/15/2018 at 12:14 PM, KirbyJack said: JIM 62 is one of my keeper books; what's your undercopy look like? My other copy is a CGC 7.0 that I bought raw from Rick Starr here on the boards. This copy looks like it may have a chance to get into that zip code of grade. I'm with you though, I love JIM #62 and simply couldn't leave this copy at the shop even though I already have one. One of these copies will eventually be available, I just have to decide which one!

KirbyJack Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 That one stood out to me, also, but Atlas PCH is a can of worms I've decided NOT to open! bc and FoggyNelson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nepatkm Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 A couple of lower grade Strange Tales I pulled from my raw collection the other day. They are some of the first back issues that I had purchased as a kid... and I read the heck out of them. *Bronze age fan*, bc and NP_Gresham 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did my best, also still have the very first book I purchased off the spinner rack when I was 4 (ASM 129) , that one shows a lot more wear, but still in good shape.

NP_Gresham Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Added an upgrade for #3 and added #12 to complete the pre hero part of the run. Looks like the ship has sailed on that last one #15.... *Bronze age fan*, nepatkm and mysterio 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AA/AAF is one of my favorite pre-hero runs, and #3 is one of the toughest to find (in grade or even period). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Yeah, I noticed a while back that #15 broke out in the Overstreet. "The Bell Ringer" was good, but the mummy story was kinda meh. 15 must be another one of those prototype issues.
