Many of us have Billy Wrights in our collections now. I am super happy with the ones I have. Thank you Billy Wright for not bogarting 'em all for yourself!

atomised Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I wasn't aware that the Berk Church Mystery Men Comics 7 was an 8.0 - I guess that makes it relatively super expensive compared to the ultra high grades in the Berk Church MM run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully, a deposed Nigerian prince is going to provide me sufficient funds to just buy the entire collection. Just a few details to work out, then the rest of you can quit looking. lhcomics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having seen some of this stuff in person, they are not doing the items any favors in the color department. Yeech. Everyone should grateful that the NY Boys are posting scans at all, they are already entitled to your money (which should be handed over to them without question or complaint) so there's no reason for them to cater to the unwashed masses. You'll take those scans mister and you'll like 'em, otherwise the wheels may go in motion and your bids will be shilled blocked so that you win squat. So shuddup already and just sign and mail a blank check to them - surely there are no trust issues, I'm sure you'll be just fine. Verily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money aside people, that is given. There (to my knowledge) is not anyone who was more interested in the entirety of the golden age of comics than Jon was. Additionally, he shared his investigations and discoveries into the peeps that crafted these stories and the magnificent artwork they created with all of us through a variety of media, these boards included (very much so). I very much appreciate that he is giving folks a unique opportunity to fill a spot in their collections that only a collection of this caliber can provide. gino2paulus2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was told the catalog should be out by the end of the month. CC catalogs are ok, but Heritage does such a great job that it would have been nice to see how they might have displayed these books.
