Bits and Pieces
from the
World of Golf Cover Comic Books
A new book that contains Golf Cover Comic information
Fellow GCS member Pete Georgiady has published a new golf collectibles
book which has a section on Golf Cover Comic Books. The book is entitled
"Antique Golf Collectibles: Identification & Value Guide". The
book is very well done and contains numerous pictures of many types of
golf collectibles along with excellent historical golf information.
The section on Golf Cover Comic Books shows twenty-one golf covers. However,
the values given for many of the Golf Cover Comics are not correct.
One example is Famous Funnies #1 which is listed with a value of $25.
In just average condition, this is an $8000-$9000 book. Another example
is Action Comics #99 listed with a value of $35. Once again, in just
average condition, this is a $300-$400 book.
My current plan is to update this site with the current values of all of
the Golf Cover Comics known to date. (Hopefully to be finished by
the end of 2006.) This will give you a "ball park" figure of what
you might have to pay when adding comics to your collection.
Being
profiled in the GCS Bulletin
and
on the GCS web site.
A great big THANK YOU to Karen Bednarski and Bob Labbance for doing a feature on my golf collecting, especially that of Golf Cover Comic Books. The article appeared in GCS Bulletin # . It also appeared in the Collector Profile section of the GCS web site this past summer. Having met Karen at the Dayton Show in January 2006, it was very easy to tell that she has the best interest of the Golf Collectors Society at heart. Karen is doing a tremendous job of keeping the GCS alive and well. Thank you for all of your hard work.
