Heritage Auctions recently sold several high grade comics from the Don and Maggie Thompson collection. Don and Maggie were instrumental in starting the Comic Buyer’s Guide. Don passed away several years ago and Maggie kept working on the guide and several other projects. I ran into her a few years ago at the San Diego Comic Con and she was a pleasure to talk to. The comic books she has decided to sell are impressive to say the least. Here are some sales highlights (price includes Buyer’s Premium):
- Avengers #1 CGC 9.4 – 89,625.00
- Daredevil #1 CGC 9.2 – $8,365.00
- Fantastic Four #52 CGC 9.8 – $16,730.00 (an impossible black cover!)
- Incredible Hulk #1 CGC 8.5 – $58,256.25
- Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 9.8 – $9,560.00 (first Wolverine)
- Journey into Mystery #83 CGC 9.2 – $77,675.00
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1 CGC 9.2 – $4,481.25
Check out these prices versus those in the Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide.
