  1. As you know, I am new to the pulp game. 10 days or so can be a helluva long time in the world of collecting. I've highlighted two bits of my original post, which quite frankly, I now feel embarrassed about. After extensive research and searching I am very dismayed to find some dealers literally gouging buyers out there because the pulp book happens to be in a slab. Shock horror I know. I still think CGC grading them is a positive move overall but I have now started buying raw as well which seems far more buyer friendly. I shall continue to buy the odd slab, but only if the seller does not want me to put my children in as a down payment and lend him my house every other month.
  2. DC at it again with a pulp from 1940 and the whole gist of the cover turning up 21 years later!
  3. Here's a sly bit of daylight robbery by DC I just came across. This pulp was published in 1940....25 years later DC thought no-one was looking when they put it with no shame, front and centre, on their 80 page Giant....oh, and five years previous to that on a JIMMY OLSEN. Cheeky monkeys.
  4. Matt Fox did this pulp cover in 1949 then decided to recycle it for Chilling Tales, by using most of the art idea and flipping the image....three years later. Love me some Fox.
  5. smoking gun to being smoked by a gal who's a bit of a pistol...
  6. I'm only a PULP noobie, a Poobie if you will....but it don't bother me in the slightest.
  7. I've noticed this too, but I have to say it really doesn't bother me on these. I'm just happy to get them if the price is right for me. Wonderful pieces of time travel history. My mum is nearly 94, and that one I just posted came out when she was just three years old.
  8. No worries. I appreciate it. I'm glad people enjoy it. I'm probably the least active participant as my collection is miniscule, so I really love the way you guys, all of you, keep it going.
  9. No, I'm ok with that now and again, which is why I've not said anything...but if we go to panels it just dilutes the idea of the cover connections. All I can say is that when I started the thread I meant it to be covers only but if you guys are happy including splashes I'm alright with it, but I think we should draw the line at individual panels.
  10. I'm aware of that. My emoji was because panels are out. It's really meant to be just covers.
