Detective Comics #285 1960

I just got this book back from CGC. It graded 5.5 and looks very nice in the new holder.

In 1986 I was a baseball card dealer and during one of the card shows a guy wanted to trade me his comic collection for some baseball rookie cards I was selling. I said I was interested so he came back with a comic storage box with 80 Silver Age comics from 1957 to 1969 which is in the time frame I read comics as a kid, specifically 1958 to 1964. All the books were in heavy mylar sleeves and I could tell the comics were in nice condition and he took care of them! We made the deal and I brought home 80 comics. I was not a comic collector but I looked at each book and remembered so many of the classic covers. After I spent time looking through them I put them back in the storage box and put the box on a shelf in my storage room. Those comics sat on that shelf for 40 years. In January I started to clean out my storage room and there was the box of comics. I went through them carefully and was surprised at the overall excellent condition they were in. After going on eBay and doing online research I tried grading each comic book. In the end I decided to send them to CGC for grading.

It took 35 business days to get the first group back from CGC. The grades were pretty much as I expected with some books grading higher and some books grading lower but the majority were about what I had graded. Every comic book in the new holders looked beautiful no matter what the grade was!

I do have a 30 Day return policy.
