Comic book collection from grandpa

I acquired a collection from my grandpa, does anyone know if there is any value here? They seem in ok condition, some have plastic and white boards not sure what that means.

Some great older books that have value, but the most valueable book would be the Avengers Annual #10.. Just look at Ebay sales on that one to get an idea of value.

Ahh yeah I should have thought to get comps from the wonderful world of Fleabay seeing as I am more involved in sports cards. Not even sure how I'd want to ship these though, that might scare me a bit.

Yeah, that Avengers Annul #10 is the first appearance of Rogue. Seems like that may be the best of the bunch.

Gemini Mailers; They're about $1 a piece and work well (pretty much the standard)

If you are looking to sell, I could be interested in the whole lot.

I think they move very slow. They reject a lot of issues based on the cover images.

And I don't believe they cross-post to eBay. I've been buying comics on COMC just to put them in my antique mall booth. They sell pretty well there.

To be honest, with the exception of the Avengers Annual 10, these are the types of books I usually see in drek boxes. Even then, the condition on AA 10 is not that great. I'd treat these as readers.
