I’m beyond jealous of that Golden Age Scarecrow

[@tybug1]

That Scarecrow cover!!!! WOW!!!!!!! $$$

[@timscimeca978]

Wow!!! That detective comics is awesome. I love scarecrow. Fantastic villain.

[@bat2275]

I don't think you should restore that scarecrow book there's nothing wrong with it. Just do a clean and press and realign that spine and put it on in a slab and it will look great. You don't want to see that awful purple label on the slab.

[@bronzevillecomics2581]

Amazing Scarecrow cover.

[@davidyurko3440]

I will be so excited if you show the scarecrow cover after restoration. Please do it.

[@nowherebound2908]

I think that Batman Annual is #1 - I got one myself in a small collection last year ... Just doublechecked - yep! 😊

[@calebleland8390]

Dude, that Golden Age Scarecrow cover is sick! That collection was definitely worth the price! 🤘🤘

[@leeniren3706]

That scarecrow is amazing

[@Mr_Rob_otto]

Nice haul. Worth the purchase price. But beware, Superman 28 looks fine but it looks like it may have been trimmed at the top.

[@CardShopReality]

Very nice collection buy. I look forward to seeing some of those books on an upcoming Sunday. Thumbs UP!

[@MintHunterComics]

Indeed!

[@dprescott1970]

I love Metal Men 😊

[@DragonInkComics]

Restoration… Eek! Take the 1.5 to the bank. 🤔

[@best9642]

A hair dryer, or waving the comic over an electro stove will cause that sticker on the comic to come off with ease. Nice haul

[@MintHunterComics]

Thanks for the tip

[@alfrede.neumann5513]

You broke this old man’s heart when you just sashayed on by the 100 page Super Spectacular of Batman 259 with The Shadow. I just loved those 100 pagers. And all those Silver Age Marvels. Watching your videos is a marvelous trip down memory lane. I thank you.

[@jemairemungin3156]

WOW!!! Detective Comics 73 is a true ghost. Extremely rare. Unbelievable to find that book in the wild. You have to PC that book. Sensational lot right here my friend. WOW!!! And for $4500👍🏾great job

[@AucheysAdventures]

As a big KISS fan I would’ve been most stoked about Howard the duck tie in! I have that Incredible Hulk 272 I didn’t know it was a key I found a ton of good books that I flipped on ebay but I kept a few also and that was one I kept!

[@sonnycoelho1752]

Wow, very cool to see that Tec #73, it's so rare!!

[@wilsonri]

since I have that Batman Annual in high grade I can tell you that It's an annual #1 Aug. 1961. Congrats! I am so jealous of your finds. Great job.

[@MintHunterComics]

Nice! thanks man!

[@LODGE4444]

You can probably get that sticker off the cover of that Detective Comic with the scarecrow cover using isopropyl alcohol 99% on a tissue or paper towel. Just rub the sticker with the tissue that has the alcohol on it and slowly peel the sticker off. Hopefully it will come off without taking any of the cover with it ! You must be very careful doing it and very slowly - keep soaking the back of the sticker with the alcohol as you peel it off the cover.

[@pcantu3]

Never heard of a restoration being a good idea, but those those colors are beautiful. It depends on how you view it!

[@YogiBear13]

I like slight resto on some golden age books that are in need of preservation..

[@robertt9342]

Problem is people equate remanufacturing and restoration, including those doing the rejanufacturing

[@andrewcai5042]

What a collection!

[@PunguinYoga]

Great classic books.

[@seanworsfold]

I talked to Neal Adams at a con before he died about that 233 cover. I had heard he didn’t like it and he confirmed that. I asked him why and he said it’s because the right leg is too long and out of proportion. I never noticed because it’s a great cover but I also can’t unsee it now.

[@Maz08]

Damn dude….. damn

[@chefpete1980]

Definitely get that First Scarecrow cover restored!!!!

[@ericwagner4634]

Hot damn my guy! Def worth the money you put out for it, well done 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@nowherebound2908]

Awesome collection! That Scarecrow and early Supes! 🔥🔥

[@roycestancabarloc1824]

Love all that DC greatness!

[@marcovendetti3373]

James you're a very lucky guy! Those comics are awesome 👍!

[@albertdale5101]

A truly beautiful collection... the Scarecrow Detective has a story!

[@shaundidier3236]

The last two books look trimmed along the top. Hope not!! Nice grabs!!

[@sleekgeekcollectibles]

Awesome stuff, thanks for sharing!!

[@l.greenemachine66]

Awesome books you received 😊❤

[@ZosoRocks1]

My suggestion....do your 1st "restoration" attempt on a different and much lower valued book. 😅

[@Vp-jt3vl]

What an amazing collection wow!

[@Acemonkey87]

Wow nice pick up. Holy shit

[@psychedeliccomics]

Wild collection of books sir. I have only one single Golden Age book and I too am thinking of getting it restored. Thinking if Jerry the Jitterbug would help me on that one. Batman #50 that I bought with a pile of other silver age DCs for like sic bucks and yes, it included a Batman #181. Winning back in that day.....

[@gregwait3553]

I certainly enjoyed! Great Hunt Mr. James! Have you ever thought what your collection is worth? The fans want to know? Just your Green Lanterns or your Batman Knight Quest. What are your blue chip grails? We as the fans have questions???😅

[@nuctech99m]

Love the collection i really need The Shadow $1 i kind of ripped the cover on my copy i guess ull have to watch the claim sale

[@mrbunglestuff]

get that detective comics book conserved. not restored. nice haul.

[@johnbigdaddyross2158]

Great pick-ups James!

[@MintHunterComics]

Thanks John!!

[@johnbigdaddyross2158]

@@MintHunterComics btw…again…thanks for opening my eyes to Mr. Cardi’s art…picked up several new examples today. Saw Joe and Mike too!

[@charliedogg7683]

Early issues of Tomb Of Shadows and Chamber Of Darkness have awesome art and adapt some great stories including by H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard. The Giant-Size monster issues like Werewolf By Night and Marvel Chillers are very hard to find and definitely worth keeping in the PC. Detective Comics 73 is insane, I have never seen anyone holding a copy either in a video or a real one at a convention. Definitely the highlight of the collection.

[@kennethjohnson9370]

I got Metal men 1 in Vg+ batman joker in court what a great buy

[@James.Sunderland]

16:45 LOL had to say it!

[@Kidred-ys2vp]

Could you do a video about captain America's comic run like his classic run like go over some of the key comics and when the comic book running ended for a video idea

[@Kidred-ys2vp]

Like 1940 to when ever it ends

[@Guero679]

The last 2 books are worth 4.5 k lol

[@Fan4Collecting]

Nice pick ups. When do you claim sale, Marvel Team Up is on my list?

[@User8vfjhejf]

I have a Detective 73 CGC 5.5, I'd never sell it.

[@MintHunterComics]

GEEZ… that’s worth like $10k lol

[@TheDukeofMadness]

I know this isn't solely about the money but those golden age comics make it worth it.

[@expensivecardboard]

Woah!

[@benthomason1926]

Does the cover of that Superman 28 looked trimmed to anyone else? Not trying to be negative with the comment; it just caught my eye.

[@MintHunterComics]

So I actually thought so on the top BUT if you look at the bottom there’s a lot of overhang so we think it was just cut wrong. Golden age books often have odd cuts and overhangs

[@benthomason1926]

@@MintHunterComics It was that top edge that caught my eye also. You’re absolutely right on some golden age books having funky cuts from time to time; I’ve seen a few. Beautiful haul btw, you really landed some amazing stuff.

[@ryanellis4917]

Are you writting notes on your wrist?? Grea video and score..

[@dougbrowne9890]

You paid too much. That first Madame Web is dropping like a rock, for good reason. smh

[@niallotoole4991]

Hi James, how much were you looking to get for the Batman #189? Or will it be a part of a claim sale?

[@johnnydropkicks]

I’m totally looking for a Marvel Team-Up #1 and you just got three copies! Are you going to put any of them up in a claim sale?

[@billyrod1980]

I’m guessing your keeping that scarecrow 😁

[@MintHunterComics]

Yes haha

[@Isaacthecomicnerd]

Is the detective 76 going in your PC?

[@EveryDayAStoryCollects]

Great pick up James. Assume these will be up in your next claim sale?

[@MintHunterComics]

Yessir!

[@EveryDayAStoryCollects]

@@MintHunterComics I'll email you in case some available pre

[@redyoshi3696]

Do you think buying (white cowboy!) Ghost rider 2 3 4 and 6 for 90 bucks in so-so condition is worth it?

[@carlmiller5009]

What grade would you give that Superman 233? How much would you want for it?

[@MintHunterComics]

8.0 as is - $250

[@jonathanloera6830]

You still got that detective 73? Let me buy it from you

[@Deadman-rt8dq]

Will you be filming the restoration?

[@MintHunterComics]

I’d like to, I have to see if Hero Restoration is up for filming it

[@cclouse14]

Superman 28 looks trimmed, doesn't it? Then again, I'm not that familiar with the golden age.

[@MintHunterComics]

It's just an odd alignment with how it was printed

[@cclouse14]

ah, ok. good to know

[@WatchingwaitingG2D]

BS

[@MintHunterComics]

?

[@thehobbyhole.comics]

Nice chunk of Batman, but the Challengers book is a great find! I think they're just obscure enough to entice James Gunn to try something with them. Great stuff my friend!
