    Okay, you had to say that. Now I can't go to bed yet.

    I've got to be up in six hours, Solar. Any Skywalds tonight? If not, I'll have to bow out.
  3. Stevemmg
    I think you won it.

    Oh yes. She has done something very, very bad. And pointing to her next victim. Liked it so much, I have this pencil piece.

    Excellent! Here is another Lampoon while we're at it.

    Not quite a black cover, but dark blue.

    On the black cover front, I picked up another one of these at the show also.

    Well you have done the nearly impossible and knocked out the ones that just can't be found today. That was a great move and wish I had been as conscious at the time. Not a black cover, but I was fortunate enough to pick this one up a few weeks ago at the Chicago show.

    Very impressed with your spectacular Skywald collection, Jayman! Those issues are just about as rare as it gets in grade.

    This is a tough one.

    All the Picture Stories titles have between 8 and 12 GFC's, War Against Crime 10 & 11 have 11 copies each and Crime Patrol 15 & 16 have 11 each. That's it.

    Hey, leave some for the rest of us! .

    Wow, very tough to get complete. That's fantastic and like the display too!

    Not a fan a trimming at all. Restoring/adding back to a book I'm ok with. Removing from books on purpose I don't like. +1 (thumbs u +2 +3 Maybe the most heinous "restoration" technique there is. More like disfigurement technique.

    Wow! The green really pops out on this! Beautiful!! It's something special for sure. It was one of the first books I bought a Gaines File copy of myself as it may be the most imaginative Ingels cover of them all. The coloring is also spectacular. Congrats on a top end copy of a top issue.

    When EC switched to the slightly smaller size, they also began using a more fragile cover stock, but the printing was improved and the trimming of the books became more reliably uniform. Very true. Hence why some of the later books are so darn tough to get in grade. Some issues even the Gaines copies are rare above 8.0.

    Are you accounting for the change in size that the books had in the spring of '53? EC's became narrower across the board at that point, so maybe that's what you're experiencing?

    So that's where it went! Congratulations, great book. Had my eye on that copy.
