As is the bane of collector's everywhere, I was short on funds a few years ago, and had to sell the prettiest J.O. #53 I had ever owned, I had resigned myself to going without forevermore. I did a trade with a local dealer for a short box of SA/BA D.C.'s and lo and behold, this was in it. While not as nice as my first, this one ain't too shabby. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus)

It's not terribly scarce either, but it does look sharp in grade. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) -
Love me some Shelton I've followed him since the quarter pagers in CBG ... I can't think of anyone more deserving of their success. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus)

Here's one I got for cheap and it has a cover that's one of my faves. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) -
...this is not directed at you, specifically, Jon ... but sometimes we collectors can be too frugal for our own good. We bristle at spending an additional $50 on something we really want, only to spend $50 worth of time in the future, lamenting our indecisiveness. I speak from experience. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus)

Just so any mischievous lurkers don't think we're all a bunch of porn lords, here's a little Avon beauty that I couldn't resist, but could afford. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) -

Thank you, figured that one would be on the permanent wish list. The boards, at least at one time, were restricted for membership to18 YO and up .... anonymous lurking is still unrestricted. GOD BLESS .... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) I once had a Frazetta pen and ink scan (The Giantess) from an issue of Gallery removed for nudity, but the thread itself was drifting towards the off color. -

I'd never heard of him, and don't mind a tutorial. I'm certainly not a gay basher, my God Son is gay and my God Daughter thought she was for ages, until she met Jesus. I'm not talking about religion, the guy's actual name is Jesus. I call him the "young bohemian", and he actually knew what that meant, so I'm definitely warming to him. @Black Cactus, just be careful with full volume nudity, as it's discouraged here. Mike may be more tolerant in the paperback area, as there's a LOT of it out there, but I wouldn't assume. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) This, for example, this will usually fly, but I'd say we're venturing to the edge of the precipice ... -
I was told that back in the day, the trimming was done so the book could stand right on a shelf and the overhangs wouldn't worsen. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus)

This is where the troubles began. The space and time limitations impede the implementation of that, in the fullest sense. With a quick check of eBay, I found only one CGC Slab of a Halloween cover with the notation on the slab, a GA issue of Flash Comics. It's always been my understanding that additional label graphics cost extra if allowed at all. You could lobby them, they are willing to change their minds on occasion. GOD BLESS ... -jimbo(a friend of jesus)

We could get TWELVE comics for a dollar, it kept us out of our parent's hair for hours. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) ... around here we had Paul's Discount which had piles of comics for a nickel each. Richard got his ASM 1 there.
