Ойын-сауық

Unboxing a load of Silver Age books fresh from getting slabbed at CGC, like Wonder Woman, Justice League, Avengers, and Spider-Man.....and guess who got the Purple Label of Death again?
And yes, I basically re-used the thumbnail from the last video.
And a shout out to my man Tom Anderson for the pressing and submitting! Check him out on / the_silver_age_comics
And a HUGE shout out to my bandmate and friend George O'Connor for the new CUSTOM THEME MUSIC! Go to his site!

    That Amazing Spider-Man with the John Romita Sr. Signature on the inside front page is most likely an original signature. That's how all of the creators use to sign their books back in the day. They didn't sign the front cover like creators do today so maybe that book should have been submitted to CBCS who will authenticate non-witnessed signatures and give you a yellow label. Enjoyed this video.

    That was definitely my thought too! And now I've encased it in a tomb, most likely to never see that signature. It certainly makes me waver on getting everything slabbed. Maybe I shouldn't? Thanks for the comment and for watching!

    Awesome books! Definitely good enough grades for me! Alot of sweet silver agers there! "strapped to a bed"... Haha I had a few chuckles! Your definitely funny and your videos are entertaining! I'd definitely consider getting that Riddler cracked and glue removed.. It's a pretty important and pricey silver age Batman key. I just picked up that book as well. Lower grade of course!

    I think I am going to have it cracked and remove the resto. Even if it's a lower grade I think it's just the right move. Thank you for checking out the video and glad you had fun!

    You have a lot of neat Silver Age books. I have a lot myself but right now I’m protecting them with Mylars and Topladers. It’s way to costly to grade books unless the books are worth a thousand and up. Maybe six hundred dollars is ideal. Enjoyed your content! 👍

    Thank you! And that's a GREAT way to protect them! Have you seen the hard cases that enclose the books and are held together with magnets? I have this fantasy that I'll get them all graded, and then in a few years sell them all and retire and make millions! 🤣

    Remember it’s not only the outside of the book they check they check the inside also I had a few sent with notes and one had something in the inside I didn’t notice 😅

    I do think a lot of people forget that. Sadly the grader notes are almost non-existent, that if it is an inside issue, you might never know it!

    Great stuff as always! Is that Wonder Woman with the spider cover one of the ones you bought from me years ago? I definitely had that one in the old collection and it was definitely beat up.

    Ha! I'm considering resubmitting it and having CGC remove the restoration. It's just a bit of glue on the bottom staple. The question is, are they just going to cut away all that paper, and then kill the grade to like a 2 or 2.5 blue label? And which is better, a 5 Purple or a 2/3 blue? Is the value similar? Maybe I should make a video about it!

    You should have done more research on grading and cleaning before submitting to cgc . And yeah that avengers enter dr doom is kinda nice and worth more than you made it sound.

    Without a doubt! I was just so excited to start getting submitted I didn't pause to thing some things through. It's been some good lessons learned these past couple of months. No regerts though! Thinking of cracking that Batman and resubmitting to have them remove restoration. Might get a lower grade, but blue label. I need to decide which is better, higher in purple, or lower in blue...
