Amazing people, amazing community.

I will pay the $221 Kelly, that's wonderful! thanks so much!

Nearly there $321 $221

I knew those wouldnt last long! Thanks both!

And we are rocketing towards the finish line here! Our remaining target is now just $406 $321

Cant believe that one took so long to find a good home! You have a good eye!

Our remaining target is now just $506 $406

Wonderful, thank you!

Just received a donation from a fellow boardie. Thanks so much! Our remaining target is now just $556 $506

How about some top quality reading for a cold winter's night? Could we say $100 shipped? It's a nice round figure, and gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside that $99 just doesn't touch! Break out the egg nog! Pick of the litter is Sub-mariner #57 in VFNM Then we have the Typhoid Mary saga from Daredevil's classic period - #254, #255, #256, #259, #260, #261, #297 NM or thereabouts. Evil, evil, evil! Nice, nice, nice! (Hic - darn that egg nog) Timewarp #1 - #5 in mid-grade - more great Kaluta covers and some entertaining sc fi stories! The semi-classic and poetic Children of Doom in mid-grade. 'Tell me again how the world ended, daddy.' 'Well see honey, there was this election in the United States and...' And finally, DC's facsimile edition of the rare Love Stories giant in NM.

Complete set of I Vampire from House of Mystery in uniform NM condition. 24 issues between #290 and #319. Much better written than Marv Wolfman's Dracula, in my humble opinion! Asking $100, shipped anywhere in the world.

A few more to list before we wind this up. I used to collect ACG quite avidly, now all I am left with is this nice little cluster of favorite covers and/or stories. A couple of these are very scarce indeed. Asking only $70 shipped anywhere in the world. AITU #73 FVF Classic cover! AITU #73 GD (has the look of a high grade book but lower staple is detached, there is browning to all edges, and I think it is 'on the turn') My favorite ACG cover - feel free to laugh, and mock! FORBIDDEN WORLDS #84 FN - Wait - this is my favorite ACG cover! AITU #120 FN - Read this when I was a kid. Features a femme fatale from the earth's core who is slain by an ice cream - but then, she is only 6 inches tall! FORBIDDEN WORLDS #145 VG-ish. Some creasing to front cover. The Timeless Tribe is such an evocative and epic love-for-an-alien tragedy that for many years I assumed it must be a reprint from ACG's early days. In he end I realized that even with it's last breath, ACG was still creating stories with the same passion as before.

Thanks to you too, Rick - that's a very pretty book!

Thanks Michäel!

Thanks for the assist, Steve! If everything sells, we exceed our target... So, take 20% off my remaining lots, as follows: PAGE 3 - Terrific Comics 5, high quality print (1998, #62 of 100), $150 $120 PAGE 3 - Uncut pulp card cover sheet, $75 $60 PAGE 8 - War Picture Library, 41 consecutive issues, $235 $188

Thanks so much to everyone for posting such wonderful material so generously. We seem to be coming to a natural end, and if nothing else sells rest assured that the funds raised here bring the final target within reach. I may have a final trawl through some boxes over the weekend to see if I can find any tempters, just to close the gap on our overall target a little more. And I will discount my unsold lots. When the dust has settled, I will provide you with a summary of what we've achieved, which is quite astonishing!

It still might (the bank in question being mine!)

I returned with nearly 4000 photos to sort through. Between now and Christmas I plan to post a series of photo essays. KANGCHENJUNGA

Thanks to Jason and Michäel for keeping it going while I slept. Here is a second lot of Fleetway war-themed digests. War Picture Library #151 to #191 (41 issues) from an OO collection that was gently read and carefully stored. Value approximately $300 to $350. Offered here for $235 shipped. (I also have #1 to #150 if anyone is interested - please inquire) https://www.bookpalace.com/PicLibs/War/INDEX_8.HTM

Our remaining target is now just $756 $556

late to the thread, but not too late, I hope? hope this adds more to the top! Hallelujah!

I'm speechless. I just wish I had books to donate. Wonderful gesture on your part, Dan. And there's the added Christmas miracle of rendering Michael speechless.

The Roshni volunteers were all at the reception tonite while we did this for them together. I may not be beyond typing, but my heart is truly full beyond silence. Those eyes!

Because of this, Shahina is being pressured into returning to the husband she has separated from. She is very upset, and desperate not to go. When I suggested the need for a new centre, I also inferred that she would need to become resident there to manage it effectively. Then, when I later described the scholarship idea, she burst into tears. So, okay, I'm not beyond typing.

Shahina's brother got married tonite in Rajabazaar.
