True, but Stormy needs to work on the lower part of that costume.  Short shorts, white pull-up athletic socks, and black square-toed dress shoes.

...but the short-shorts are an important part of Stormy's costume! Oh, wait a minute, ...I was thinking of the other Stormy! :blush:

Here’s another tough one you don’t see all too often not even in hand yet I received a notification from a want list and when i saw the grade and the price I didn’t hesitate especially after seeing what some of these are brining and being asked for even in low grade with resto. Just an awesome Simon cover there are only 3 universals on the census and 1 restored I present Speed Comics 22 (my fav #!!!) You will notice a few of the recently posted books on the back cover as well!!

GINOOOOOOOO! 

:golfclap:What a score!! That is an extremely TOUGH book, and one i have been chasing for years. The Berk copy (which was restored so I passed) was the first copy for sale I had seen EVER since i began my hunt for it years before. Wow, and the back cover is just amazing, Simon was on the ball that month. Absolutely stunning War cover (if Simon did it for Timely with Captain America instead of Harvey with Captain Freedom, it'd be among the highest priced War themed covers to obtain).Just a masterpiece!

Major MAJOR congrats on this one! (worship) (worship)

I think you'd have to request the graders notes to get that specific.  Maybe Matt should chime in.  :shy:

Graders notes on that one are pricey, heck you'd have to be multimillionaire...

Nice thread, but forgive me  I think I'll go back to posting  on the first one. Overstreet has it's pluses but pricing does not seem to be the best one lately and looking up one statistic is enough for me;)  :sorry:

Understood, but for the purposes of this thread, it seems like a good baseline.  My assumption ...based on reasonable logic... is that GA books valued at under $100 in the lowest OSG grade would be less likely to be submitted except in the highest grades (increasing the inaccuracy of census representation).  Modern books are graded for different reasons, often because speculation factors in, but GA prices are pretty stable.  Granted, many books are undervalued in the OSG, but some kind of arbitrary criterion was needed to justify low census submission numbers while reflecting the value of books.  Just my two cents, no inflation adjustment. ;)
