BB54 CGC 9.4 sold at Comiclink last night for $3485. Thought I'd mention it since GPA is so out of touch on this book. Last sale listed is from 2014 for $1669.

I upgraded my old beat up copy of this issue. This is one of my favorite issues (post 24) of the run. I love the color combination (green, yellow and purple) and the fact that it is the first team up issue. This issue defined the series for the next 20 years and 150 issues.

Congrats on the upgrade! So true about how this book was the caticlyst in changing the BB series. This is one of those important non - 1st appearance keys. It is, however, a Green Arrow SA key since it's one of the few books where Green Arrow stands out during the SA (the other being his joining the Justice League of America in issue 4 and BB 85 where Oliver gets a new costume). As I have said and will continue to say- what makes this a great hobby is that there are so many different kinds of key books. I love the combinations of greens and yellows on this book - sometimes the mix of colors can make a book a classic cover and this one is a classic SA cover imho. BB 50 kind of has a Golden Age-ish look to it.

 

Best,

John

Love the silent knight covers. Had a whole set of them about 5 years ago. Miss them

Here is a recent return from CGC. I love the way the books pop in the new slabs even with the old holder inside.

Won this B&B in the recent My Comic Shop auction:

Another classic!

B&B is a series that many people don't seem to collect (or care about).  I don't really mind though, since I've now hit the 70% completion mark on the entire run!

[Silver]

Slow going on the pre hero B&Bs, but I’m past the halfway mark

 

[JLA Brad]

Very Nice book, Silver!  I'm with you on the "Slow-going" part.

I have issues 59-65, with Issue 60 out for grading. All the other issues are gradable .. Which ones are you looking for ?

From an original owners collection I find some of my favorite cross-over covers.
