I found 6 of these nifty Heavy Metal Slipcase/boxes while cleaning out a closet. They are a little dusty but will shine once a damp cloth has given them the once over.

 

Since I no longer have any HM's, I have little use for these cases, except as storage boxes for other mags, I suppose.

 

If anybody who collects HM is interested in these and wants to make me an offer, I'm happy to entertain one or all. Looks like they hold about a year's worth.

I don’t know if anyone had noticed, but Chris Achilleos passed away last month. If the name isn’t familiar to you, certainly some of these images will be.

Is the last mag the most iconic of the run?

Probably.  The only other two that I think might give it any competition are the first issue and the Geiger cover.  (Image swiped from GCD because my copy is in storage somewhere)

Wow, Foggy!  I was just going to search for this thread and here you brought it to the top.  (thumbsu

Is it just me or is this title really starting to heat up.  It seems like only a year or so ago, you could find multiple slabbed copies of #1 in 9.4, 9.6, 9.8 for sale on eBay.  I just looked and there's a CGC 9.8 BIN for $1400 and that's it.  And the prices people are asking for later issues raw is pretty impressive.  Apparently, this sold for the BIN.

I put low to mid grade copies of this issue in multiple packages as a free extra when I sold books to board members.  Wow.

Glad I bought these when I did!  :acclaim:

Do we have any idea why that issue is going crazy?  I can find decent looking raws of #1 cheaper on the bay...
