  1. Journey Into Fear #15 (CGC 5.5 with off-white to white pages) $2900:

    What a cover! Three ghastly ghouls hovering over a stunning blond floating above a graveyard. The flowing hair accentuates the beauty of the alluring young woman.

    Look closely at the eyes. The artist enhanced the gruesomeness of the trio with superb drawing and coloring of their orbs.

    Outstanding stories and superb Iger Studios art. PCH doesn’t get much better than this!

    Great alignment, solid structure with deep, rich, bright colors!

    Only 16 Universal with just two graded higher- one 6.0 and one 6.5. This is the only 5.5.

    I believe this is a better presenting book than the 6.5. The 6.5 has color breaking creasing above the woman’s head. She also has red ink splotching on her face and hand. Centering isn’t as good. Page quality is lower at off-white. As they say buy the book not the grade.

    Pretty Ogden Whitney GGA cover.

    Two awesome stories: The Haunted Morgue and Land of the Zombies.

    Solid structure and gorgeous colors.

    Only 18 Universal. 2nd highest graded with only one graded higher!

    I actually have great experiences with USPS except for their Express service which may or may not show up on time. 

    And the people at the USPS POs are usually very helpful as well.

    UPS is a different ball of wax and people in Canada HATE UPS. 

    Had a boardie send me a document last week via UPS overnight and the thing has been sitting stationary for days now.

    UPS and Canada do NOT get along. 

    I dropped off a Priority Mail (USPS) package at San Carlos CA post office last Wednesday at 2:40 pm and CGC picked it up at their PO Box at 4:45 pm Friday that same week. I didn't think that was possible.

    I used to have a beautiful collection of Central Valley Lil Abner books.  They were so bright and crisp, but this one was always my favorite Lil Abner book, L’il Abner and the Creatures from Drop-Outer Space.  Produced for the Job Corps and still includes the mail in post card ( because what comic book reader wanted to join the job corps!?!?)

    Rough shape with a the subscription-like fold.
