THE SAGINAW COLLECTION

Hailing from Saginaw Michigan, this original owner collections features complete runs of most major Marvel Titles in astonishing condition. Once collectors get their hands on these ultra high grade books, they will be amazed by the vivid deep colors on the covers and the white interior pages. When we first held these books, it became clear that this is what silver age marvels looked like the day they hit the newsstand. A young man bought everyone of these stunning comics from the same newsstand from 14 years old to 35 years old any read them once carefully and placed them inside plastic in groups of 10 and wrapped them tight. We had the honor of being the ones to open them this year. These early Marvels have not seen the light of day for almost 50 years. Unlike some of the other great Silver Age pedigree collections, the Saginaw collection will be offered on EBAY exclusively with No Reserve.

Fantastic Four #12 CGC 9.4 1st Meeting Hulk/Thing 2nd HIGHEST OW/WHITE

Check this one out. Only 1 copy grades higher than this monster example of the landmark 1st meeting of the Hulk and the Thing. We are not sure why this beautiful copy with vivid colors and razor sharp edges only got a 9.4, we are struggling to find a visible defect anywhere. Featuring off-white to white pages and a flawless spine, someone will walk away with possibly the 2nd best certified copy. Stan Lee story. Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers cover and art. Serial number 1053526004

The Book:

Five for Friday

FRANK MILLER Original RONIN #1 Artwork The BLOODSWORD No Reserve

Bad-ass page? Sure thing.

X-men #138 page 18 by John Byrne and Terry Austin

I'm too lazy to go through, but is this the same seller as the previous page from 138 or is it just a coincidence/copycat thing?

Alan Moore, David Lloyd V for Vendetta page. NR!!

People dig this book, in case you didn't know.

Batman #608 RRP Retailer Variant CGC 9.8 NM/MT WP RARE

I love posting this book to shock and awe the old timers.

Whiz Comics #25 CGC 6.5

GREAT COVER.

Five for Friday (FF 45 White Mountain, Turner Witchblade, MTU Splash, Sam Kieth Wolverine, Travis Charest)

FANTASTIC FOUR #45 CGC NM (9.4) WHITE—WHITE MTN PED.

Is this another opportunity for me to offer big $$ for any White Mountain Daredevils? Yes it is. I love White Mountain books.

Michael Turner Witchblade 13 pg 17 Original Art Aspen

For some folks this was a defining run in the 1990s.

Marvel Team-up #128 Title Page Spider-Man Original Art

I just dig this image. Very cool.

Sam Kieth – Original Art for Marvel Comics Presents #92

This run was a big deal back in the day. It's not for everyone but I'm a fan of the art on this series.

Travis Charest original Captain America drawing

TRAVIS!

Highlights from the Latest Heritage Signature Auction Part 1

Twin Cities Books

The Atom #3 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1962) CGC NM 9.4

If you've read any of these you know of my affinity for green covers.

Wonder Woman #178 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1968) CGC NM+ 9.6

Green psychedelic covers? Where do those sit on my personal scale? Pretty damn high.

The Avengers #57 Twin Cities pedigree (Marvel, 1968) CGC NM/MT 9.8

I'm cool with this book. It's got a lot going for it. The Vision is a cool character (he's one of "my" Avengers,) the Spectre homage is cool and who doesn't love the Avengers?

Batman #200 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1968) CGC NM/MT 9.8

This is a dopey cover AND I LOVE IT.

Batman #227 Twin Cities pedigree (DC, 1970) CGC NM/MT 9.8

This is the complete opposite of a dopey cover. CLEARLY.

Silver Age

Action Comics #252 (DC, 1959) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Cream to off-white pages

A fun book to me.

Adventure Comics #247 (DC, 1958) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Off-white to white pages

I want this to be a hot book. I don't know why.

The Amazing Spider-Man #28 (Marvel, 1965) CGC NM+ 9.6 Off-white pages

What's the value here? We saw $15,000 for Pacific Coast 3-4 years ago. This book boggles my (non-Spider-Man collecting) mind.

The Amazing Spider-Man #50 (Marvel, 1967) CGC NM/MT 9.8 White pages

Here's a Spider-man book I'd actually want to own although at the price this will get, I'm not sure I'd want to pony up for this one.

Detective Comics #327 (DC, 1964) CGC NM/MT 9.8 White pages

Look at this thing:

The Flash #105 (DC, 1959) CGC NM 9.4

I don't know why I've never actively collected Flash books. I've always been focusing on something else I guess. Great book.

Showcase #4 The Flash – Bethlehem pedigree (DC, 1956) CGC VF/NM 9.0

There it is, one of my favorite books ever.


Stay tuned, hopefully I'll find time for Part 2 and 3 before this auction goes off.

UP FOR AUCTION:
X-MEN 1 (1963). F/VF 7.0 Graded – Blue Label. Off-White Pages.

Case is in excellent condition. No reserve auction. Far too many comics are overpriced on Ebay with too many sellers trying to get the “value” that some arbitrary price guide says it should be. I believe the true value of comics are whatever you can actually sell them for, like everything in life. Hence, all of my comic books up for auction have NO RESERVE. Good luck bidding.

With graded comics, I do NOT accept returns so please be sure you actually want this book before bidding. Check out the pics and let me know if you have any questions.

FREE SHIPPING (with up to $5k insurance). I only ship to the continental U.S.

Five for Friday

ORIGINAL COMIC PAGE STEVE DITKO HULK #6 PAGE 3 1963

HULK SMASH.

He didn't really talk that way at this point. He just more of a jerk, than a dumb, SMASHING brute. Cool page, yo.

ACTION COMICS #24 ~ Vintage Superman Comic ~ CGC 8.0

Early Action Comics on eBay. You know I'm going to link to that.

Iron Man 55 CGC 9.8 NM/M White pg 1st Thanos Starlin

I should get a nice 9.4 of this book. I've got no interest in playing the 9.8 game here, but a nice 9.4 would do me nicely. (Runs to GPA) $400? Heck yeah. That's a plan.

HULK Issue 396 page #13 by DALE KEOWN

Two hulk pages on on Friday. I'm game. Especially since they're at the far end of the spectrum in terms of style. I loved Keown's run on this book. It was a blast each and every month.

WOLVERINE/WITCHBLADE #1 Pg.15 M. TURNER ORIGINAL ART!!!

I link to Mike Turner's art. 'nuff said.

Amazing Spider-Man #1 CGC VF/NM 9.0 Stunning perfection

Sold For:14,000.00 Seller: dizneyart ( 3572 )

Description:

Amazing Spider-Man #1

CGC VF/NM 9.0
(Marvel Publications – March, 1963)

Completely Unrestored except for minor cover clean

This Gem received the most minor of all restoration notes.

A simple cover clean. That is it.

There was a light dust shadow on the back cover and it was only partly removed. It did not improve the grade at all, so it is not really restoration. This is a Major KEY issue in fabulous original shape other than the very minor cover clean.

Classic cover by Steve Ditko and Jack Kirby

Interior art by Steve Ditko

Origin of The Spider-Man!

1st Chameleon – Fantastic Four too!

About the condition:
This is an amazing Super High grade example, with deep color strike, full gloss, and cream to off-White pages.

Please look at the pictures to see the grade and defects.
