Monstro Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I found this one...but there is a 9.8 out there somewhere: Dunno who has the other. When I won this book from Bobcat back in the day, I didn't expect him to list another one a few months later. The other guy paid $100 less. I recall my copy being slightly better centered though. did you buy it slabbed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sterlingcomics Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Greg, Bobcat Have you made any progress in your 100 pager set this year?

sterlingcomics Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 That man amazes me...years and years of selling books and no apparent end in sight. I got back some great grades a couple of days ago...I'll be posting them in the dead thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jokersrevenge Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 ok i'll bite, how many books do you know of that have paratroopers on them? Why do you collect them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paratrooper Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 1st question: Haven't really counted how many...every day find something new, like the one above (which greggy is giving me a copy free). I have a spreadsheet that tracks them, maybe I'll count later. 2nd question: Why I collect them, I've collected comics since I was 6 (I'm 29 now) and my collection grew too large. Had to focus my collecting habits. My last tour in the military was in the 82nd Airborne Division....thought it'd be nostalgic to collect trooper books. My very first book was actually a Fantastic Four #295, I still have that. But since everyone and their mother are collecting Marvel FF/Spidey/Hulk etc. I thought I'd try something different. Plus I can directly relate to the Paratrooper/War books that I am buying. The stories are sometimes telling stories of the times in which they were printed. Not only that, I don't think these GA/SA war books get the attention that they deserve. Everyone is collecting the superhero books, but pay no attention to these obscure non-key books. I've been drinking too much beer again, I'll answer these questions in my thread when I'm more clear headed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
