Great thread! Just realized I need to figure out how to take pics of my books when the scanner's dead. Tough to pick out my favs, but a few I was really happy to track down...

Boy, it's tough to pare down as I added nothing like some of the monstrous standouts shown here, but perhaps a very solid, comparable top few. Out of them, I keep coming back to these three:

I always looked forward to these types of threads this time of year to see what you guys added to the collection. So to be official, you had to have made the purchase in 2017. If it’s not in hand yet, a scan is suffice, and if you haven’t even gotten it yet, there’s still time to post. Here’s to a good year of pick ups and it’s tough to nail it down to my top 3 acquisitions, but I’ll go with these. aka My Keepers

Congratulations! Phenomenal colors on the Rangers.

Isn't it weird that folks can parse all of that information and come to such varying conclusions,

and yet The Houston Astros are still World Champions!

Weren't they named for the Jetson's dog?

Are those Baseball awards?

In baseball it is bad to kick the ball around the infield.

Tough to pick 3, but here are my top prizes from 2017 ( in no particular order)

1. Planet Comics 32 , superbly colored

2. Planet 14, tied for highest graded and has been elusive to me for years

3. Fight Comics 32 (one of my top 5 favorite fight books) original art splash page from first story in the comic. Great art and Nazi emblem along with Nazi storyline.
