I could not believe I finally found at Detective Comics #205 (and at a fantastic price)! Love this show! Love the JLA kit Ghastly. I assume you got that right next to from Dave & Adam/Carbo. I think I saw it in their case but forgot to ask. I hope you got a good price on it. I was going to bring some of that and toys but have found there is very little interest in that room for that stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what I saw a similar one sell for on Heritage in 2002 for $1,265 that did not include the mailing envelope, I think I did well and I’m very happy! https://comics.ha.com/itm/memorabilia/comic-related/junior-justice-society-of-america-kit-dc-1945-this-junior-justice-society-of-america-kit-contains-an-original-envelope-/a/803-6582.s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post n2wdw Posted January 31, 2018 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Terry's Con Report Part 8 - Terry's Wall Getting to look at Terry's GA books was like being in the "In Crowd." You had to be on "The List" to get into his inner sanctum. I got in only because @Ricksneatstuff and @Robot Man vouched for me. It was like getting into a trendy speakeasy, you know, where you have to know the password to get into the door, and all the pretty leggy girls are wearing short dresses with Jimmy Choos, and they're pouring Pappy Van Wrinkle. Okay, not really. Terry had to limit access because he had limited staff. (But sipping bourbon while shifting through long boxes isn't a crazy idea. Maybe next year ....) Anyway, since I spent most of my time at the con looking through Terry's GA boxes, I was able to take a lot of pictures of his wall books.

He wouldn't let me look until the doors opened and by then I had to go open up my booth. Up his, I went else where to spend my 50 bucks. Seriously, I could spend all day in his booth alone. I suspect the big reason he does this show is so he can bring his entire inventory because it is literally in his back yard. He never has this much stuff at other cons I see him at.

Definitely the best overall inventory at the show, something for everyone. It didn't look like a single person left the "inner sanctum" empty handed.
