Set Description:

When it comes to comic book collecting this set is my passion. This is my favorite comic book and if you have a Suzie I need - please let me know. It would be going to a good home. In the initial stages of building this set, I was focused on the Al Fagaly covers, #49 - #69, but decided to go after the whole beast of a run in 2015. Many of the examples are single highest graded copies and are legitimately scarce in presentable shape.

Some highlights of the collection to point out:

Suzie #49 - This is by no means the first Suzie comic book, but it is the first title issue and one of the most popular from the run. I am proud to own the Crippen Copy.

Suzie #51 - this 6.5 is the best copy I could find. I've owned 18 copies of this book and have been searching for 6 years. This issue is the most desirable cover, gaining attention from GGA collectors.

Suzie #52 - This issue is the only issue out of the first 10 that I've been able to crack a 9.0 on.

Suzie #56 - many consider this cover to rank right up there with #51. The classic piano repair cover. This is the highest grade ever assigned at CGC.

Suzie #60 - CGC 9.2 - just an unusual grade for a Suzie.

Suzie #61 & 65 - There are only 3 Suzies to ever grade 9.4, here are 2 of them.

Suzie #99 - the later issues I'm finding are among the toughest from the run. This example is a CGC 8.5, a very unusual grade for the second to last issue of the run.

Rare Canadian Editions: I'm also looking for Canadian Editions of Suzie in a wide range of conditions. In addition to several raw copies in middle grade, I own the following certified examples in high grade. Suzie #67 CGC 9.6, Suzie #71 CGC 8.5 (this issue actually features the cover to #70 from the American release), Suzie #73 CGC 9.0.

Single Highest Graded. This early issue is quite hard to find in nice shape. This FN+ from 1965 is the nicest I could find but I am always looking for a nicer copy, hopefully in the VF range or better.

3rd Highest Graded. Many consider this to be the best cover in the series and I would probably agree. Unfortunately, for me, I have not been able to find a higher graded copy. Currently looking for a VF or better copy.

Single Highest Graded. I was very fortunate to find this early Suzie in CGC 9.0 condition. This was purchased from Harley Yee comics and although it's not a Pedigree copy, I wouldn't be surprised because it has the structure and the feel!

Single Highest Graded. #53 has been a thorn in my side for a long time so this more recent pick-up felt good. Great structure.

Highest Graded (1 of 2). This is one of the best covers from the run and it's not hard to see why. This gorgeous 8.0 VF has OWW pages, an unbeatable combo.

3rd Highest Graded. This copy comes from the IRS Collection and is a stunner in person. In fact, this copy would be a 9.4 if not for one crease on the upper right corner. Perfect White pages and the spine of a 9.8.
