What ASMs are you looking for? Have a lot. Probably what you have, tho, if your luck is like mine.

Wouldn't be surprised if we have quite a few of the same, I've got lots of doubles and even triples of some issues as some numbers just don't seem that hard to find. My spreadsheet has holes all over, but the 620's and 680's are where I'm hurting the most. I think I'm a little over halfway to completing the last 100 issues. The 500's are also patchy for me, especially later 500's, but I've had some good pickups lately to fill a few of those gaps.

1998 books, so not quite as exciting as the 2000+ newsies.

But I'm pretty happy with these, and the price was more than right, especially to pick up the run all at once. Unfortunately, #3 has a little collection of spine ticks, so eventually I'll probably try to upgrade that. But it isn't like these are being slabbed any time in the forseeable future anyway.

Given that Covid-19 is likely to keep my store closed for another couple months, I’m gonna throw pretty much all of those newsstands from that last collection (the New Jersey dealer one) up in my modern sales thread. Probably putting them in 10-20 book lots rather than singles (don’t really want 1,000 separate posts lol). Grouped by publisher. See if I can get these into hands of folks who appreciate them. :)

So every last one of these books were damaged due to poor packaging. They were bagged & boarded put into a partial makeshift box and put into a plastic mailer. The loose books bounced & banged around and resulted in this. Please package your books properly.
