The results are in from Pedigree Comics, Inc.’s recently completed Grand Auction. The auction began the night of Monday, November 7th and ended the night of Monday, November 14th, in the separate Grand Auction section of their website. There were 409 CGC certified comic books to choose from and over 90% of the books sold. The total sales was just under $700,000 ($699,311) and with post-auction deals in the works, the total number will exceed $750,00.
“The auction was a great success and as usual, Marvels led the way with many record sales, particularly Silver Age Marvels in 9.6 and higher. The highlight of the auction was the incredible group of early 1960’s Marvels, a remarkable selection of ultra high grade books from Marvel’s flagship titles. These books did incredibly well and were representative of Marvels most popular superheroes Amazing Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Incredible Hulk and Thor. Other highlights included an unbelievable consignment of Golden Age DCs, Timelys, including many highest CGC certified Edgar Church/Mile High pedigreed books. Other ultra high grade Silver Age Marvels and DCs saw strong results as well, including a group of 9.4 to 9.6 books from the recently discovered Philadelphia Story Collection," said Pedigree Comics President and CEO Doug Schmell.
