Surely yours is a beauty to behold. I cant imagine anyone on the boards having nothing but the best of the best, except maybe our own Swami.

One of the top collectors in the hobby ran a poll on a different site recently asking what everyone's top grail is among a group of books including Action 1, DC 27, AF 15, Cap 1, and a group of others.  Somewhat surprising,  AF 15 won the poll.  Of course it matters how the question is asked, but I do wonder what the most desired book in the hobby is.  Hard to measure, but obviously the question is about demand, not supply.

It's likely Hulk 181, AF 15, DC 27, or Action 1.  There's an argument for any of the 4, and I suppose it matters how you measure demand.  I'd say, in the end, the answer is likely Hulk 181, as strange as that may seem.
