So this mail order customer of ours calls from Florida and inquires about selling some of his comics on consignment. I’m always interested in key stock filtering into the store, and I get especially geeked out when the consignor informs me that the comics are 10 cent DC’s from the late Golden and early Silver Age era! He asks if we’re interested in selling these items, and in the words or our immortal ex-president, I say, “Bring ’em on!”
And for your perusal, all the books are now priced and on display in the store. The majority of the books are in the Good to VG range, and a few in the VG+ area. I’m pleased just to be able to offer them to you, for we rarely see titles like ADVENTURE COMICS and SUPERBOY going back to the year 1954! There’s a scattering of SUPERMAN and ACTION COMICS in there too, so please come in and have a gander. Remember, browsers are always welcome, but buyers are adored!
And speaking of buyers, here’s my sreamin’ deal for this week (February 3rd to February 9th) to the lucky readers of this very informative blog. Times are tough, and getting Overstreet prices for back issues is even tougher some times! Currently in stock at AABC are two Fine+ (6.5) copies of two very key UNCANNY X-MEN books, #94 for $350.00, and GIANT SIZE #1, also for $350.00. Mention you read the blog this week and we’ll take 25% OFF the price of those books. That’s almost $100.00 off the current value of each comic! We’ll also apply this same deal to the remainder of the Golden Age BATMAN’s we still have in stock from the Amanda WOOLFOLK collection. If you recall this cool collection from last fall, these books belonged to longtime DC writer and editor WILLIAM WOOLFOLK, Amanda’s grandfather. A certificate of authenticity comes with each book, personally signed by Amanda signifying her grandfather owned these comics.
Alright, I’m off my duff again. Until next week…
Alan
