Excuse me if it's been covered earlier, but how many DC 100 pagers were there, and if someone has the data, how did it break down by genre? I have fond memories of buying these in the early 70s, especially the ones with GA reprints. I don't collect them now, but still think of them as one of the high points of the Bronze Age.

There were a total of 115 DC 100 pagers from 1971 to 1975.

As of 9/19/2017, 5,215 had been graded by CGC:

9.8 = 187 

9.6 = 738

9.4 = 1076

9.2 = 767

9.0 = 699

8.5 = 550

8.0 = 387

7.5 = 247

7.0 = 197

6.5 = 129

6.0 = 61

Below 6.0 = 177

Titles Covered:

Action 

Adventure

Batman

Brave and the Bold

Detective

Flash

House of Mystery

Justice League of America

Love Stories

Our Army at War

Sgt. Rock

Shazam

Awesome, I've seen a few 100 pagers in good shape but I've definitely seen more in not so great shape.

I have been carping a little on this book. I just got it in the mail and for the life of me I can't see any flaws whatsoever. Why it only garnered an 8.5 is perplexing. On the other hand, I got it for a very low price.

Of all of the 100 pagers graded so far, it looks like Young Romance 201 is the scarcest. 

Only 3 of these books have been graded by CGC, with the highest grade being an 8.5.

Just added the last two 100-pagers I needed to complete the main Batman run (thanks to @ChiSoxFan). Yeah I always lump 262 in there also although it falls short by a few pages.

Now I can knuckle down and put some more work into finishing my 'Tec run. I'm about halfway there.

Adventure 416 CGC 9.8 on Heritage.

This is one of those "Make Offer to Owner" deals.

Said minimum offer was $660 so I offered that. Rejected.

Offered $700. Rejected.

Offered $750. Rejected.

Not going any higher.

Minimum offer is now $800.

:facepalm:

Too bad, that's a cool issue but, yeah, at a point you just gotta walk away. Hopefully that person willing to offer $800+ won't come around for a long time.

Apparently I have an addiction.

I just bid $800.

OK.

We have just passed the 72 hour mark and I have received no response from Heritage within 72 hours as promised.

Heritage just posted a rejection for my $800 offer.

I will likely be purchasing a 9.6.

Best of luck to the seller.

Which 100 pager is the most valuable? hm

Does CGC assign registry points according to their perceived value? (shrug)

If so, here are the top 10 (based on registry points that are or would be given for a 9.8:

1. DC 100 Page Super Spectacular 5 = 8,400

2. Tie - DC 100 Page Super Spectacular #4 and #6 = 3,000

4. Batman 238 = 2,200

5.  Tie - Our Army at War 242 and Batman 255 = 1,280

7. Adventure 416 = 1,200

8. Flash 214 = 1,120

9. Tie - Superman 252 and DC 100 Page Super Spectacular #14 = 960
