This is the Twilight Pedigree copy! An Unrestored Detective #33 CGC 8.0 sold for $75,000 in December 2010. I would venture to guess that a Unrestored 7.5 would go for $65,000+ today. Also, given that it's an old label, it wouldn't shock me if someone bought this and resubbed it to CGC and got a CGC 8.0 Slight (P). More about the Twilight Pedigree: The Twilight collection's namesake has a kindred relationship to the Cosmic Aeroplane and Mile High pedigrees in that all three were named after the stores that brought them to prominence. In the summer of 1995, Bob Gray of Twilight Books and Emporium in Syracuse, NY had one of his regular science fiction customers approach him to appraise his childhood comic collection. Trying to be pleasant, but realizing it was likely going to be more effort than it would be worth, he reluctantly made the trip to see the books--only to find 600 dazzling copies of Golden Age comics. Included were near complete runs of Batman #1-#59, Detective #27-#161, and World's Finest #1-#30 (including both NY World's Fair issues). There were even a handful of Timelys that included a nice copy of Marvel Comics #1, as well as several other keys. Although many early issues were in low grade, the later issues were the nicest Bob had ever seen. They rank in the top 25% of the 45 CGC graded collections here.
