rsheitz Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) I bought a read comics throughout my youth. Love them and have saved a lot of them. They are all raw. Neatly placed in a plastic bin where they have remained undisturbed for many many years. I know I have a number of valuable issues here. Need to know were to start. My most prized possession is an Amazing Spider-man #1. See pix. Bought it used for $0.03 when I was about 12 (1965 ). I started a yearly subscription to Spidey at #12. Did it for one year. Was a member of the MMMS - though my membership stuff is long gone - sadly. Only a few are currently bagged. How is the best method to get my AS#1 submitted. Thought about doing it for years really, but too nervous to pack it up and mail it. Have many others. So similar questions arise. I have 150 -200 total. Many #1s like: Iron Man, Sub-Mariner, Silver Surfer, Hero For Hire, Dr. Strange. Many early issues of Tales To Astonish, FF, Daredevil. Was always unsure of what to do with my "collection". Last comic I actually bought was Amazing Spider-man #100. Now that I'm retired, I figured I should have inventory and put the collection on a spreadsheet. The question is: then what? Any advice would be appreciated. Edited August 30, 2017 by rsheitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadroch Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'd start by getting them out of cheap plastic bags and into a form of Mylar. Post a few books in the grading forum and get an idea how to grade. What is your goal? Sell them or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
