Here are some pick ups in the last few months. I'm down to Strange Tales 101, 123 and an upgrade on 115 to complete a VF and better run from 85-168. :yipeeeee:

This is the hardest book to find in grade from the Doctor Strange 169-183 run.

My first ever silver age pickups, again from Garry.

Niro - these are nice books also. You had quite a post day! Congrats!

Today was a good post day for me as well.

This arrived! Sorry about the cut off scan. It's a CGC 7.5

Great book! Dr Doom kicks ass... I am hopefully getting a slab of that also in very near future.

That sounds like a really cool and fun set. Do you have FF 5 or 6 or ASM 5? Off the top of my head, those would be the most pricey.

Yup i thought so too :yes:

but unfortunately No, i'm trying to round up the more affordable issues first. Would have to bide my time for a good deal on those issues unless i go for a very low grade

Nothing wrong with low grade books; often their covers display very well.

Collect what you like. My collections have differnt mixes. We would all love 9.8+ but some of those cost 100K+. If it is pretty, complete and something you like then it is a keeper!

I like DD. Those are fun. I personally am only missing 3 and 7. I will pick those up some day.

I bought this issue last weekend at a small local show. 1st appearance of Carol Danvers. That's the reason I wanted it. :yes:

There's a little glare coming off the mylar on the scan. Sorry about that.

It came from my brother's collection. I've wanted it for a long time and I'm glad to keep it in the family. He's probably had it since 1980 or so.

My fee for selling the rest of his collection! :wink:

Thanks, Mr. Zipper. I was glad to find a VF copy of my new Marvel Super-Heores 13 book for a price I was comfortable with. I saw a CGC 9.4 on Ebay, and the seller was asking over $600 for it. Crazy.

Very cool JIM issue, Mr. Zipper, and a great story to go with it.

awesome cover mr zipper, im not a fan of thor or hulk but when they're on a cover like that, you have to admire it!

Niro · **Joined:** Aug 27, 2012 6:19 AM **Posts:** 71

Got these two from Garry few months ago, easily best in my little collection (again sorry for the poor scans, my scanner is not big enough for cgc slabs):

I'm really not sure if these are true Silver Age, or the beginning of Bronze for their respective titles, but chronologically, they fall under the Silver umbrella, so...
