mysterio

I have six issues of Pep left to list, and then that will wrap up the thread. I hope to get all these listed today, then a recap of the entire thread today or tomorrow. We'll see how I do... Pep #141 VG -- asking $20 + shipping SOLD Cover attached at both staples but just a hair loose. Centerfold detached at top staple but still secure at bottom. Tiny corner off lower right front cover, dust shadows, light wear and tiny edge tears.

Pep #135 added!

Pep #135 VG -- asking $24 + shipping SOLD Everything attached at both staples. 1/2" split at bottom spine, general light wear. Great color and gloss.

Sorry, I had missed your request until I came back to report on the grade. It got a 7.0 Universal OW, which I am very happy with.

Pep #134 VG+ -- asking $32 + shipping Solid, everything well attached, great color/gloss/pages. Dust shadows along right and bottom edges of front cover, minor edge wear. Nice copy.

Pep #131 G/G+ -- asking $11 + shipping Presents well, that patch at the lower right corner is the most obvious defect off the bat. Spine has significant wear and tears around the lower staple, but everything is still attached at both staples. Inside is complete, but first two pages have roughly 6" tears up the spine side. Book is readable and nothing is missing, but the tears are not your average little rips.

Pep #130 G/VG -- asking $18 + shipping Another attractive copy with nice pages that gets dinged on its technical grade. In this case, there are two small missing pieces on the back cover, the upper left corner and at the lower spine. Otherwise the book looks every bit a VG+ in my opinion. Everything is attached at both staples.

Ok, I ended up with quite a break after my meeting, but I will blame my wife and a binge-watch of "The Wire". Pep #126 G/VG -- asking $20 + shipping Lower grade, but pretty. Great pages, color, and gloss. Main issue is the small tears and chips out at the spine, and a couple of edge tears. Everything is attached at both staples, and the interior is problem free.

#119 is yours! After a 3 pm "meeting" online I plan to post more.

Pep #119 VG+ -- asking $30 + shipping SOLD Very solid copy with nearly Fine structure. Spine has just a touch too much wear and there are a few minor edge tears that keep me from being comfortable bumping it.

I'd thought about that one, nice pickup.

Pep #118 G -- asking $12 + shipping Solid, everything attached at both staples, no interior problems other than a few edge tears that do not affect stories. Just general wear as can be seen in the scans.

Pep #117 G -- asking $10 + shipping SOLD Complete, and believe it or not everything is attached at both staples. 1/2" whole book split at lower spine, but nothing serious is missing and pages seem supple. Not sure how you get such a savage split with no real missing paper, but there you go. Other minor tears but no major pieces missing and art on the inside is unaffected and the book is readable with no problems.

Pep #116 VG/VG+ -- asking $29 + shipping SOLD 1956. Solid copy, everything attached at both staples and no problems with interior. Tiny corner off at upper right, general light wear.

Dobie #21 is yours, thanks!

Never paid attention to this before, but if that guy's hands are normal sized then Ant-Man is riding an ant that is the size of a rat.

Done with Laugh, now for a palate cleanser before I move on to Pep later today... Many Loves of Dobie Gillis #21 VG -- asking $18 + shipping SOLD Looks nicer, with great color and gloss, but some very light moisture (can be seen better inside the covers). Otherwise light wear, nice and flat.

Laugh #158 VG -- asking $8 + shipping 1/4" split at top spine, everything attached at both staples, general light wear, dust shadow bottom of back cover.

Laugh #157 G/G+ -- asking $6 + shipping Top staple neatly detached from cover, but staples are doing their job everyplace else. Beautiful page quality, wear and dust shadows visible in scans.

#153 added to the stack!

Laugh #153 VG/VG+ -- asking $7 + shipping SOLD Typical VG, tiny spot above Betty's head. Everything attached at both staples.

Laugh #126 VG/VG+ -- asking $10 + shipping Bit of a curl at the spine, light wear, great color and gloss, everything attached at both staples.

#109 added to the pile!

Laugh #118 G -- asking $9 + shipping 100% complete, no interior issues, but cover neatly detached and other wear apparent in the scans. Great Veronica cover image.
