When it comes to Silver/Bronze Age pedigrees, the Rocky Mountain collection is my pedigree. This piece was auctioned off on ComicLink in January, 2011. I placed a bid of $400 and lost by $25. This book was picked up by Greg Reece of Reece's Rare Comics and listed on his site for $700. After a few years the book was no longer listed and I figured the book finally sold.

Almost four years after the ComicLink auction, this special piece was listed on eBay by Reece. I didn't let anyone stop me and I won the eBay auction for less than the 2011 ComicLink auction result. Whenever I pull the book for viewing, I still think to myself, "This is finally mine!"
