  1. Interesting! I got the Daring 6 from Metro in 1991 or so in a trade for a Forbidden Planet one-sheet... It's just as gorgeous as I remembered, buddy.
  2. Oh yeah, I forgot about this one, Jay. Guess it's my second favorite mummy cover - at least of the ones I own.
  3. I'm always kinda surprised that SS 7 doesn't seem to get much love anymore, but it's one of my absolute favorite GA books. Probably long overdue for me to take the plunge on an upgrade
  4. This is my favorite mummy cover. I'll have to pull it out and check out the interior as far as a mummy story goes; it's been quite a while since I last did.
  5. That's a purdy copy - such a great cover
  6. I listed that WTF 5, Joe, and watched it with interest, of course. Tremendous eye appeal for the grade.
  7. here is the nicest one I have found. That's a beauty, John. A friend of mine has the CGC 8.0 (or 8.5, can't remember), but yours is now the 2nd nicest one I've seen. Outstanding, very tough book at 6.5!
  8. Still trying to complete a run of Beware in 6.0/7.0 or higher. This book seems to only turn up in very low grade. I've waited, and waited, and...no luck. This was an ebay snag a few days ago. I read somewhere that DC was a 'shadowy' owner of Trojan...going back to the girly pulps by that publisher name, too.
  9. . Not reported on GP. There was a 4.5 for 6K reported, though
  10. For some reason HA gets higher prices than others. Heh heh who bought it?
  11. Someday I'll git my hands on a high grade copy of this book
  12. An old friend - whom I've lost touch with now for over 20 years - bought that book from Metro some 25 years ago (unless there is another 8.0 with the same coloration!) He had been in the market for a Cap 1 and he and I made the drive to NY. All he collected was high grade Timely. If I recall correctly, my friend had at least two other Cap 1s to choose from at Metro that day, both/all in the VG-F range. He had brought some SFs and Mile Highs with him to trade for a Cap 1. I believe one of the books he traded was the SF Daring Mystery 6. Another was a Mile High Adventure in the 70s; among others of that ilk. Long story short, when he asked my opinion that day, I told him I preferred a VG-F copy with normal colors. He went with that one because it was a VF, and ended up losing money when he sold it 10 years or so later.
  13. Nice! Very tough book in that grade. And with a great square 'cut' and WP.
