I dropped in here hoping for a better outcome. IIRC, one of the few pieces of advice I offered was to cut up that credit card when it arrived. Good luck and good bye.

+1 You could probably improve the appearance a bit, but not necessarily the grade.

And more winter fun

... and exactly the same joke!

That happened to me. I got a terse note from the executor after my second polite reminder a week and a half after the auction. (There was also a confirming obit online.)

Great stuff @mlansdown- all things I like too. I especially like the Mickey Mouse Magazine.

Never tape anything, including with so-called archival tape. If you really wanted to reattach it (and I can understand why you do) then use archivally safe japan paper. Better still, find someone who knows how to do that.

Wolverton (pretty sure... feel free to correct) to Wolverton

Someone has to lower the tone of this thread before we all get nosebleeds. I'm here for you guys! 2018 was a year in which I could feel my priorities changing away from US-printed books and towards Australian GA, both reprints of American material and locally-produced stuff. Top of my list would be the "Cheetah collection" of Fiction House reprints. I saw these books pieced out on eBay by Geppi over a month or two more than a decade ago and was always kicking myself that I didn't go harder because of the disproportionate postage costs on multiple small shipments. Then they surfaced here in Cheetah's collection. I'd reached an agreement to buy them when Cheetah sold out of comics, but life took him off the boards and I'd (almost) given up hope of getting them back home. But 2018 saw Jeff come back and the 'consummation devoutly to be wished' finally came to pass. Here are the books sitting on a floor in their native land once again: Thank you again @cheetah for my comics highlight of 2018. In terms of Australian-produced material, I think the sci-fi covers in Silver Flash probably get the nod.

Hideous racial stereotyping to 15c in Canada.

The Phantom #3 reprint has a small 'R' in the cufflink of the bad dude. As you say, this is an original. PM responded to.

You did very well to find those. Some valuable issues there. I'm intrigued as to what else you got. (See my collection of Australian GA as linked in my sig.) if you're selling I'm likely interested! PM me if you like. I can probably help with info on these books.

We're doing octopodes again so soon? Fine with me.

And back to gorilla

You know, I'm not seeing what you guys are evidently seeing. Other than the hospital ship episode, I've enjoyed every episode of this series, and I thought a few were very good. This last one was excellent other than the WTH was that about? Anyway, I'd watch this ahead of almost anything from the John Nathan Turner period any day. I sometimes think we forget how bad Dr Who has been at various times right throughout its existence.

The book also has an extra staple by the look of it. I agree with others that 1.5 is "right" but I'm not sure what it would get...
