Maybe i would consider this comic for a fortune....There were only 10 copies of this sketch cover ever produced....and the artist got 9....I got the ONLY  1 sketch cover available to the public...I had someone familiar on these boards do a pre code piece for me....PRICELESS........especially if Lady Death ever takes off....

In the past it would have been Rawhide Kid #1, Kid Colt Outlaw #1 or any of the JIM/ST 1-20 issues I need, however...

As I have gotten older I no longer have the desire to spend money on comic books, it just does not excite me as it used to and I feel the prices have become outrageous (is it because I became "that old guy"?), at this point I cannot even see myself spending $25.00 for any book.

Feel exactly the same here, though I'd pay $25 for a $100+ book ;)

As a dealer I'll purchase anything I can market.  But on a personal level, there are no "mega-keys" that do anything for me.  But I'm a sucker for the ultra-rare (and often over-pay because of it).  I'd love to own a Kokonut Comics just because there are only a couple of known copies.  I love rare pulps whose existence seems to number in single digits.  I currently have a true 1st edition of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde"... but in the variant binding that is so rare, it appears I may have the only copy.  I own a Charlie Chaplin poster circa 1916 whose title-variation may be unique.  I have what may be the earliest lobby card to depict Boris Karloff.  None of this stuff will bring what even a lower-grade AF15 will... but I find it fascinating for some reason.

Did you ever find a copy?
