I want a high grade copy of this book. It is the only book I'm searching for now. Can you find me one?

Cool, I'll be looking there.

I'll try! This issue is hard to come by in grade.

I have a lowly vgish copy

The Tarzan cover run is complete!

That is an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations!

Absolutely stunning Jeff!!!

I would post a group shot of my All-Flash books, but it wouldnt be impressive....

Neither would a photo of you flashing.

What... Man I am dead sexy.

You dont know about this guy.

This is Pat.

Im better looking then him too.

Pat's Too Sexy

Yes it would!

See how nice this shot looks

Very nice Uber-Geek.

what a handsome devil you are!

Awesome!!!!







But who's the guy that looks like he just stepped out of the pizza parlor?

I really wish I hadnt passed on some of those. But I did pick up the #2 on the boards the other night. And have an eye on a few more. I am really trying to put that run together.

#2 is an awesome book. Congrats!

Amazingly rare set Gary!

Bill, what's the grease pencil "12" on the #1, #3, & #6, and possibly on the #9? Was that some sort of garage sale price that someone was hoping to get at some point?

That family portrait never ceases to amaze my, Gary. The story behind the trials you went through, and the amount of time, to reunite them is nothing short of one of the coolest quests in comicdom.

I love telling the story, Jeff. And not only to my comics friends. When I tell it to family and non-comics friends, they all appreciate it too.

I haven't done any publicity about this yet, but right now I'm considering putting them on display at the Chicago Con next summer. That's one thing about our hobby that I just don't get. When you go to a national coin, stamp, trains, toys, etc. there are always displays of rare stuff - usually displayed by collectors. Tom Gordon and I were talking about this last summer and it struck a cord with me. Sure we have dealers booths with incredible books, but they're stock to be sold. I love the idea of an armed guard keeping watch over a room filled with rarities.

Consider this: "Four Rarest Superman Comics on Display at Wizard World Chicago - Local Collector Does the Impossible and Completes Set Thought Lost for Over Six Decades"

Despite this poor attempt at sensational headline writing, I think the media would be all over this. And it would be a better draw for the convention than some silicon-enhanced wrestling babe signing autographs for an hour.

Anyway, that's what I'm thinking about right now...who knows?

What a group!

I certainly would never get tired of looking at them!

Those are really neat. Have you ever considered Xeroxing them and selling copies to collectors who can't afford them. I would love to read the interiors of them all.

PM sent.

C'mon, Marnin, you're not gonna tell Gary about the stack of these rags I have in the basement, are you?? I thought we were gonna keep that hush-hush.
