Were-tigress! Were-tigress indeed! Here is my copy: The later issues tend to have the best content - mostly Cameron artwork, with stories to match. They can also be tricky to get especially in higher grade.

Colorful, and a great cover. Yes, also very scarce - and the lead story by Lou Cameron is a killer!

This is the nicest one I've seen of this cover. Really nice! This is one of my favorite covers. I have a beater copy of this one. Have you had it long? Thanks for sharing. I picked it up a couple of years ago. I prefer it to #8.

...another of my faves....

...anything for you Joanna!

Yes, it's more like Alfred Hitchcock! I like these "psychological" covers!

Not a recent acquisition but my favourite Baker cover!

...a few more....

Deep reds on that #105! (thumbs u

...a very interesting thread that shows that there is always more to learn. Here are my contributions, though hardly obscure!

I'm based in the UK so "across the pond" is the United States!

parker's FORMER copy--the whole rivet run, 'cept for 1 and 22 [needed for my p'gree run--toledo] were sold this week to an anonymous boardie. kel recalls well; the old boy is red. ...always interested in the true reds! I believe that the colors in #17 could have been even more vivid - I once just missed out on a really low grade copy on ebay that indicated as much - but the scan was too small to be worth keeping.The search goes on... ...and here is my upgrade, just in today from its journey across the pond - some small trace of red, but the book is a bit yellower than my scanner translates: ...and the #23 that came with it:

damn it, don't give me another title to go after. I used to have all the Dagars but no longer. IMHO it is the most underrated Fox title. The first few issues have outrageous gga by Edmund Good. So I'm sorry but you simply have to have them!

Me too -- I love this cover! I have a copy too, and I've never seen another copy in all these years. Folks always ooh and ahh over this book when I post it (and for good reason). Your copy looks like a real beauty... any chance of a larger scan? A masterpiece of composition. One of those rare occasions when a book on ebay turned uout to be nicer than graded. Is yours nicer? I agree with you about scarcity - but it's also kinda easy to overlook it in Gerber until you really look at it. I didint notice it myself until a buddy switched me on to it. (thumbs u

This book is notorious for being faded or having ink bleed through from the inside cover. Yours looks great! (thumbs u I'd definitely prefer a lower grade copy with good colors than a technically higher but faded copy!

Interesting note about the glue. How did it avoid PLOD? innumerable blue label "very minor amount" glue/c.t. g.a. books out there. sometimes a combo, and sometimes even with a third note, ala... I once had a CDNP #24 with a minor cover tear which, in my infinite wisdom. I decided to seal. I sold it and eventually bought another copy - but meanwhile, my old copy, easily identifiable because of the cover markings, turned up on a certain web site, CGC graded 6.0 - with no mention of the cover tear seal. And it wasnt that hard to spot even with the naked eye. These at least, are apparently free of such ambiguities of grading: (Should have said that the Fantastic is my only early Fox issue!)

...a few more..... Ohio: Allentown: Rockford: River City:

Great book. I was the under bidder on that one. Yes, we went a bit crazy didnt we?

Yes, the glue is a disappointment - and bids went very high. Bu the colors are intense. There was also a Wonderworld #7 in 5.0 with great eye appeal that went through the roof!

..a few of mine...

...a few recent acquisitions....

...although I have always admired the understated charm of this one as well...

....has to be this one for me...

My one and only Fox to date!
