  • I was able to buy another comic book collection.
    In this video I go through a portion of it. I break down a box to show how I do it. I also discuss price and show the keys that were found.

  • @kieronball8962
    @kieronball8962 4 года назад +2

    Gary, I'm happy you found that 1st printing of Bone # 1, but for me, the stars of your haul were the Golden Age copies of Flash Comics and Green Lantern!
    I don't normally agree with cleaning and pressing comic books, but for Golden Age books, I think it's the correct thing to do, especially when they are going to be graded and slabbed.
    It will be very interesting to see what grades they get from CGC.

    I would happily have watched you go through every single one of those boxes. Such fun. Lots of Vertigo and Image stuff from the early 90s when I used to go to the comic shop twice a week for new releases.
    I started collected Bone around issue 7 so I have 1 through 6 in much later printings. I also have all the trades so my kids have read them all. Fabulous series that everyone should discover.
    Good stuff, thanks.

    I seriously had no idea that Bone #1 1st print was going for that much. I have a few copies of that book in first printing that I had bought from Jeff Smith himself a few decades ago when he was at some local shows in Columbus, Ohio. I even have the Thorn book that reprints his comic strips from the Ohio State University Lantern. I will have to dig those out and send them on to CGC. That was a great series.

  • @hobb7es
    @hobb7es 4 года назад

    I was trying to guess what book got you so excited and all the books you named were so near and dear to me. First instinct was to say Bone but I thought, "I dont think he's a cartoony style book like that". You proved me wrong. I shouldn't have doubted as you always have a soft spot for Usagi books (I've shared those videos in an Usagi Facebook group). Fantastic find!

      #10, 21, 22 are all heating up with show spec. All may be worth a 9.8 pre screen submit (definitely 1, 4, and 8) to cgc. My recommendation, from a Sandman collector. There are a few error books worth looking for, too.
