I bought a couple of these. They seem legit but frankly, there's no provenance and it's hard to say. Definitely, a buyer beware situation.

A few of them have ended around $200 which is a bit of a gamble, IMO. The other thing that makes me unsure is that I purchased a cover proof for Eerie 41 from a board member, @r100comics, and his proofs seemed legit. The seller on eBay sold another cover proof for Eerie 41 a few weeks back. Was there more than one? The ones on eBay feel a little different than the one I got from our board friend. But the paste ups and such do seem like production pieces. I really can't say with any clarity what to think. That's all I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r100comics Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 They are 100% legit. The Ebay seller did a deal for the whole collection from the same source I bought mine from. That original source bought out the entire Warren archive of proofs following their bankruptcy in 1983 and held onto them until selling pieces recently. There is more than one proof of certain issues but the production proofs, with paste-ups etc, are one of one.
