This amazing consignment of almost 100 NM/M, white-paged Bronze Age Marvels comes from the private holding of noted CGC 9.8 and higher collector John Adams ("scheradon" on the CGC boards) and is one of the nicest mid-late 1970's/early 1980's collections you will ever see. As many CGC board members know, John is a very picky collector who only buys the very best available comics, concentrating on esoteric Bronze Age Marvel titles in CGC certified 9.8 and higher. According to Pedigree Comics' CEO and President Doug Schmell, "these books are simply incredible. They're all perfectly cut, flat, glossy and obviously unread. It took a serious labor of love for a person to wait to buy the most perfect copy he/she could, and that is what John did. Almost every single book in the consignment is the highest certified and finest existing example of that issue".
Included in the consignment are the top CGC Registry sets of Iceman, Omega the Unknown, Spider-Woman and Tarzan plus other incredible sets (Eternals, Human Fly, Machine Man, Red Sonja, Star Trek and more). There are a bunch of Winnipeg pedigree copies in the consignment, 13 in total. Again, every book is at least 9.8 (there's a 10.0 in there!) and every book has white pages. For you late Silver Age guys, there's even a Doctor Strange #169 (yes, 9.8 with white pages). Other titles include Devil Dinosaur, John Carter, Warlord of Mars, Kull the Conqueror, Kull the Destroyer, Nova, Spectacular Spider-Man and Web of Spider-Man.
