Full gloss and bone white interior covers!
Desirability for the #1 has monumentally increased in the last few years as it finally gets the recognition it has long deserved. My 7.5 copy was a surprise present from my wife when we attended the 2014 San Diego Comic Con. This was my first, and probably last, visit to SDCC and my wife understood this. She wanted me to buy a major book to commemorate our visit and she gave me the choice of my All Select Comics #1 or a 3.5 copy of Amazing Fantasy #15. Amazing Spider-Man has always been a favorite of mine but, ultimately, I decided I would be happier with the much higher grade All Select Comics #1. This decision largely meant that I would not collect Silver Age Spider-Man, I am not made of money, and I have gradually sold the largely completed collection I had amassed to support my Schomburg obsession. I hope I never upgrade this copy of All Select Comics #1 as I cannot imagine another copy would have such happy associations with the love and support of my wife.

The Collection began with the All Select Comics #2 that is still in my set in 2022. I am not sure I will ever upgrade it but if a nicer copy surfaces, at a good price, I will probably be unable to resist. This book is a chaser for many Schomburg fans and it is considered to be one of his best covers. The internal appearance by the Red Skull does not hurt its desirability.

I have seen maybe 4 copies of All Select Comics #3 in the last 10 years with all but 1 being below 6.0. My first copy, which I had for 8 years, was a measly 3.5. My current copy is only a 4.5 and I would be open to upgrading. Not sure how long that wait will be though.

My current #4, a 9.0 and the "D" Copy, is my 4th copy. This does not seem to be a particularly hard to find issue which may be holding its price down. The cover has captain America riding a motorcycle so its relatively cheap price is probably driven by supply. I doubt if I will upgrade this book again.

The #5 in my current run is my 4th copy. Cool cover and some have told me they think it is hard to find. This has not been my experience and the fact that I have had 4 different copies in 4 years backs this up in my mind. I really like this cover though. I unexpectedly upgraded in the Fall of 2021, along with the #3, and I doubt if I will upgrade again. Still, stranger things have happened!

My #6 is my 2nd copy. It is a 6.5 and I am happy with it. Not sure I would upgrade unless the price was just too cheap to ignore. Again, love the typical Schomburg craziness on this cover.

The most difficult to find comics in this set are the #3 and the #7, in my opinion. I am fortunate to have the board luminary Straw-Man’s old copy of #7 which I bought through Greg Reece Comics. This copy is only the 2nd complete copy I saw in 10 years of looking. Straw-Man beat me to the draw when it was originally listed on the Dave and Adams website and I did not have the money when Straw-man sold it on the boards. I was shocked when I saw it listed on the Greg Reece site and only thought about it for 24 hours before buying. Have not looked back.
The #7, an 8.5, I wrote about earlier; I will add that I am so happy to have this copy. I doubt I will ever upgrade as the cost would be prohibitive. There are (3) 9.0 and one lone 9.6 above this one, as of August 2020, and I am not sure I would be willing to pay the price difference for just a .5 increase. The 9.6 is just a pipe dream since again, not made of money.

Woot! Sorry, but I love All Select Comics #8. Back when I was poor, and I mean Federal housing assistance poor, I dreamed of just owning a copy of #8. I was really into Bruce lee and Martial Arts when I first saw this cover in Overstreet and it just screamed cheesy Chinese Kung Fu movie to me. It is the first non-WW II cover in the series; however, it is easy to see how this could have originally been an anti-Japanese cover. It would take just a little white-out on the robes to cover up the Rising Sun. We may never know if this was the case, but it is still fun to imagine.

The #9 is a fun science fiction cover still featuring Captain America, the Human Torch, Bucky, and Toro. Bucky is in trouble again and everybody is rushing to help! Or maybe just to give him third degree burns. It is sometimes tough to tell if Bucky is being rescued or if its an attempt on his life.

Speaking of an attempt on Bucky’s life, the cover of #10 shows nobody trying to stop Bucky’s toboggan sled ride of death. Instead, they are blowing holes in the wooden run which is almost certain to cripple or kill poor Bucky. This 9.4 copy made my day when it surfaced over at Terry’s Comics. This is another one I just knew I had to have as I have wanted a 9.4 in my run and here it is! This is only the third 9.4, of any issue of All Select Comics, I have seen for public sale in almost 20 years of looking. I launched a fire sale of duplicates and other lessor comics to afford this copy and I have no regret. It is beautiful.
