I have all (I think) of the Warren issues and a bunch of the Kitchen Sink ones, but I was thinking about the DC Spirit Archives - what's wrong with them (and where does the classic stuff start?).

Nothing is wrong with the DC Spirit archives; it's just that many of them are out of print and impossible to find at decent prices.
I've pretty much given up on finding volumes 12 and 14; I've been using my black-and-white Kitchen Sink reprints to fill in the holes in my collection.
A Dynamite reprinting would be most welcome, especially at a larger size.
In answer to your question, the "classic stuff" is generally considered to be the post WW2 material from 1945 to the end of the series in 1952.  In the DC Archives, that corresponds to vols 12-24.

The Beguiling has vol. 12 for cover price.  Give them a call. http://www.beguilingbooksandart.com
