Thx Jimmers! Anecdotally, my experience matches yours for commonality, so I was happy to get the set at once! The tougher ones have the better covers, but #1 has that Baker story...not a slouch in the line-up! porcupine48 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact these two copies had to fight their way to get into my collection, eh eh. Larryw7 and porcupine48 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One and two I picked up ages ago,pre interweeb.At least I think so with issue 1-I found that in the hoard last yearish,can't recall when I got that one.Three was a toughie though. (okay,I never really look that hard,actively seek out many books.I sort of just let them come my way.But I keep my eyes peeled.This being a Canadian book,I did look a little harder than normal.)

At least someone out there "gets" it. That American Eagle pin is a comic book club. Rare as heck. You really should pick up this one Tony. Hakes has one in his current auction. There are only 3 issues of Great Comics and we all know which one #3 is. How many of these do you think they sent out? gino2paulus2 and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bid on that one, but I didn't win it. Closed a bit too high for me at $521.80. I agree that you wouldn't think they would have had time to send out many before they killed the comic.

Popular Post Larryw7 Posted July 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2018 It used to be not too long ago that you could get a nice 5.5-6.0 of this book for about six hundred bucks. Now it costs almost twice that for a low grade copy. I'm just glad I was able to get one for my collection.

Sqeggs Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Couldn't resist picking up this flyer. I remember as a little kid just learning to read, going intently through the captions and pictures of Prince Valiant in each Sunday's paper. Was a little surprised that this one sold for the opening bid. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post navs Posted July 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2018 Well, waited for a little bit but finally got the opportunity to win this beauty. Yea she is a bit rough around the edges, but its got character . Been going a little overboard with buying, need to slow down. Especially with this one, went a little heavy handed on the bidding. Its a wrap for me, for a little while at least. ender, D84, gino2paulus2 and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
