To me that's no better than a 9.0 but based on some of the grades I saw in the March Madness grading contest from CGC...sure, it's a 9.2.

This cover makes you realize how much Wrightson was influenced by Ingels...

You nailed it. Every time I look at Wrightson's cover to House of Mystery #204 I can't help thinking he had to have been inspired by Ingels' amazing cover art on Haunt of Fear #24.

No probs - some cool books here, but not the SSS issues I was looking for.

Which ones are you looking for?

That's all for now, thanks for taking a peek! 

Vault of Horror #35 – CGC 6.0          $895   SOLD!

Chilling Craig cover with an unsuspecting wife finding an unexpected ‘gift’ under the Christmas tree. I’m betting her husband wound up on Santa’s naughty list!

Another well-presenting front dragged down in grade by the back. Only for sale due to a recent upgrade and tempted to keep!

Tales from the Crypt #41 – CGC 7.0 $695   SOLD!

Jack Davis at his finest, with only 15 known copies graded higher than this one. Catch!

Vault of Horror #39 – CGC 6.5          $650   SOLD!

Another haunting Johnny Craig classic. Tough black cover!

Haunt of Fear #25 – CGC 7.0             $550   SOLD!

Ingels at his best, with a front cover that presents like a VF at a minimum! Hard to find in high grade with only one known copy graded higher than 9.2 by CGC.

Haunt of Fear #23 – CGC 6.0             $450   SOLD!

Captivating cover by ‘Ghastly’ Graham Ingels that presents very well for the assigned grade. Hard to find this issue in anything close to near mint condition with no known copies graded higher than 9.0 by CGC.

Weird Science #20 – CGC 6.5                        $450

Wonderful Wally Wood cover. Eenie…meenie…miney…whoa!

Shock Suspenstories #13 – CGC 3.5 $195   SOLD!

A hot comic lately, this issue features Frank Frazetta’s only solo story for EC. With a jolting Jack Kamen cover, this well-presenting copy also benefits from a well-placed date stamp and White pages!

Haunt of Fear #24 – 4.0 (VG)                        $150   SOLD!

One more amazing Ingels cover, a true master of the macabre!

Shock Suspenstories #11 – 4.5 (VG+)                       $125

Cover by EC legend Johnny Craig. I’m guessing this is probably what would have happened if Ginger had been the only guest who signed up for that three-hour tour!

Haunt of Fear #20 – 3.5 (VG-)           $125

One of my favorite works by ‘Ghastly’ Graham Ingels – I’m guessing the creases to the cover were caused by some poor kid in the 1950s clutching the comic in fright as he read the terrifying tales within!

My second thread - let's hope EC Comics are more popular than DC. 

A mixture of raw and slabbed this time. Please excuse any glare from the scanner on the pics, still trying to figure out the best settings. Now, the rules:

o   No Probies or Hall of Shame members.

o   Payment via Paypal.

o   Shipping: $15 for slabs and $10 for raw (in any quantity) in USA and Canada. US shipments will be sent USPS priority post and Canadian shipments will be sent by Canada Post (from the north side of the border). Overseas shipping at cost and only to established board members with references. I normally ship in 2-3 days.

o   No returns on graded books unless I have missed something major.

o   References: Have bought a ton of stuff (probably too much) on the boards if that counts for anything. Also occasionally sell on eBay as comic_gems

A few final price reductions before closing this thread.

Bumpity-bump 

Get 'em while you can!

Thread will be closing Sunday (moving to other venue).

Nay for me. I do ship within North America now, but in all my years on eBay the only problems I ever had were with overseas buyers. And they were frequent enough that I eventually just stopped offering items outside of Canada and the USA altogether.

   Thank you!

Bump for updated prices. 

Though I have relatively few FFs, this near mint white-paged dynamic Dr. Doom cover is a welcome addition - courtesy of one of the lurkers on this very thread!

I "know" that guy from the EC Fan Addict Club on Facebook (he has a "day job", apparently now trying to run an online comic shop on the side). Presents himself as a hardcore EC collector, and a while back was saying that CoT #19 was one of his favorite issues and that he wanted to hoard as many copies as possible (I actually sold him a copy to add to his hoard...the 8.0 he now has listed on eBay). Apparently, he has decided to move on from that idea...interesting decision to list them all at one time.  

   Ed, you know you are supposed to offer any and all EC under copies here on the boards first (or better yet just PM me directly!).

The breasts seem...unnatural. Next time the artist may want to refer to this handy drawing guide.
