RICK STARR

That Venus 16 is off the scale nice. You rarely see any issues of Venus in higher grades. Here are two recent acquisitions from Ebay. The Spellbound 23 has been a long time coming to acquire a nice decent copy. Need this one to help complete my precode MT run. Getting close.

Two spectacular pick ups, Rich. I bidded on the ST 85, also. Seems you wanted it more than me. Just a beautiful copy. Here is what I did get from Comics4less. Finally, got a chance to scan them.

I like this issue, too. Especially issues with Infantino's futuristic looking city skylines.

Just an old Jimmy Durante cliche.

Ha Cha Cha Cha, I got a million of 'em.

Showoff

You cannot beat that green cover on that issue. Here is my most red cover.

This book is impossible in high grades.

A few more...

Oh come on, dozens? There aren't any at conventions, and I have been to quite a few recently. Maybe one on Ebay last year. I think it's the toughest TAT issue. Let me pass on this story to yah' all. I use to set up at some of the NY Creation Cons back in the early 1980's. It was either one of the Koch brothers or G. Dolgoff that came up to me with a short stack of TAT number ones. I bought two copies at $25 apiece. Since I was not a Baker collector back then, I traded or sold them off at some point. They were all in nice VF conditions.

Here are a few more "hardly seen" issues. GCE #9

Great batch of books! Here is my TR 45. Picked it up 10 years ago. About a FN/FN-

..... nice Rick..... it's prettier than my 8.0..... GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) Thanks, Jim. I wish the PQ was better. Saw your copy on Ebay.

Here is my 8.0 copy. I also have a raw 6.0/6.5 copy which I haven't scanned. The stories are ok, no Everett, Heath or Maneely.

Whew, guys just some terrific postings here to start the new year. Thought I would add a few not seen too often.

The "Mud Monster" returns. And he is ready to get down and dirty.

Nice!!

How deep is your Adventures of Rex the Wonder Dog run? Completed the entire 1-46 run about 5 years ago. The grades go from G+ to some nice VFs. It took 10 years or a little more to finish it. One of my fav. DC titles.

Yeah, I think the Rex 2 is much harder to find than the # 1. OPG does list 1 to 3 as scarce.

Finally had a chance to scan a few books. Rex to the rescue. The coolest Archie Adventure Series cover, period. 2nd Jaguar app., issue # 2. 2nd Suicide Squad

Grogg should have gotten a magazine of his own! Had that been so I'd still be a confirmed Marvel zombie today. And Circe deserved a title of her own even more so than Rip Hunter! She certainly has better looking legs.
