  1. As I recall, the British reprint covers are from photostats of the original covers submitted prior to them being toned down for code approval. So it is the "original" American covers that are actually redrawn.
  2. I wish I could abandon ebay as a venue, they constantly look for ways to squeeze another dime out of sellers. The latest is charging a FVF on the sales tax they collect. But it is still profitable, and I sell about $3000 a month worth of books there. Fortunately I haven't had the problems with buyers that others complain about, which I chalk up to the GA market perhaps not being as heavily populated by scammers and malcontents.
  3. I guess Westerns are alive and kicking. That Arizona Kid #2 is one of my favorite saloon brawl covers. Not the most compositionally dramatic of Heath western covers, but certainly one of the most detailed.
  4. Lovers' Lane #35 (CGC 3.0) and U.S. Marines #7 (VG) have been reduced to $525 each. Millie #64 (VG) is now $80 True #34 and Tales from the Great Book #3 can be purchased together for $10, or added individually onto a pre-existing order for $5 each.
  5. Lastly, a group of Spicy Mystery facsimile editions. The Adventure House reprint is full size (7 x10), slick heavy cover stock, and has a few small dings at the bottom of the back cover. The two Wildside editions are slightly smaller (6x9) and have slick heavy cover stock. One of them has a crease at the lower right corner. All 3 for $20
