Magazine auction hero banner

An online auction featuring more than 120 high‑grade magazine issues is generating buzz among enthusiasts. All lots have been graded by CGC, ensuring a uniform standard of condition that buyers can trust. The catalogue spans a variety of genres, with standout titles such as Savage Sword of Conan, Creepy, Eerie and Vampirella, each presented without a reserve price and with a minimum opening bid of just $20. By eliminating a buyer's premium, the platform offers a transparent cost structure that encourages both seasoned participants and newcomers to test the market.

The auction reflects a broader shift toward professional grading and digital sales channels for printed media. Sellers are being drawn to the model because it promises a clear, market‑driven valuation and the ability to reach a global audience without the overhead of traditional brick‑and‑mortar venues. For those looking to list additional issues, the house continues to accept consignments, positioning itself as a hub for high‑quality magazine transactions.

Industry observers note that the focus on genre and pop‑culture titles aligns with current demand trends, where fans of horror, sci‑fi and superhero narratives are actively seeking well‑preserved examples of the publications that shaped those worlds. The combination of CGC certification, low entry costs, and a straightforward bidding process is expected to drive robust participation, potentially setting a benchmark for future magazine‑focused sales. Interested parties are encouraged to visit the Pedigree Comics website for the full lot list, preview images and bidding instructions, or to contact Doug Schmell directly for consignor inquiries.
