Okay, I found that answers to my own questions. I have felt very "EC-y" lately, so I went through my old copies of CBM's and found the following. This may have been posted previoulsy, I apologize if it has, I can't say I have read this thread going back to it's beginnings. The following is a reprint from CBM 80 (the whole issue is dedicated to 50 years of EC, great issue!) Says it's from CBM#2, but I have #2 and I couldn't find it. Any ways, this is what I must have been thinking of, reading this story about the opening of the GFC collection:

Does anyone have a copy or a link to somewhere that shows the original ad for the Gaines books? I remember CBG having an ad (I think!) . I was also wondering, did anyone buy a complete set of the Gaines books when they were first released and still have them today? I only started collecting EC last year, but they are quickly becoming my favorite books to buy!

Eric, I don’t mind competition at all. In fact, I’m not even number one on the registry any longer. My competitor passed me up two years ago. He and I have actually collaborated on a few purchases!

I’ve had a bit of a setback with this thread. Photobucket finally kicked the bucket for me and now most of my previous scans are gone. Fear not, project Sugar and Spike continues. I may repost some of the earlier issues later on. Here is where I’m at right now. Just got back 3 graded books from CGC, that brings my registry set up to 70 (out of 98 issues). I have two more just sent in (6 and 7) That will get me to 72. I have two other raw issues I’m not likely to slab as they are on my *upgrade* list, so in all 74 out of 98. I have far exceeded what I had hoped to get, thinking maybe half the run in nice shape was do-able. Now I’m prepared to make this my life-long collecting goal, 😂 Here is the latest batch back from. CGC:

Picked up another EC yesterday. I have the Russ Cochran reprints so I read this one right after I bought it 😊

Been a little bit since I picked up an EC, but just bought this one. I have three of the issues in the run now.

I’m sure I’ve seen that ad before, maybe in the JO, I can’t remember. There are some great house ads in the 50’s DC”s.
