Part of the same One Owner Collection. Colors are vibrant. They really pop. Three of my favs. 

Another PBC story I have is that on one visit back in the '80s, I saw they had a nice looking copy of Vampirella #3, the Warren mag. It was one of the clothes pinned books strung up across the room and I asked if I could look at it. Forget who got it down for me (not the owner though), and I asked him to take it out of the bag. He did and said he would be right back. I opened the cover and immediately saw that the first 3 pages were ripped out of the mag! Jagged edges and all. When the guy came back, I showed him the damage to the book since they were asking $80 for it in VF+ condition. He said he never even opened it up to look and was fairly grateful. He then gave me an extra discount on the books I did buy.

This is my reply from an old thread from '07. What a great place!:

Somethings just get lost in the ether... but theres more to the town than just the now closed book center...

Yes! One of the standout highlights of the series!
Two part Bigfoot episode

Yeah switchblades. It was the cool weapon of choice back in 1978-79. Me and my friend were only about 15 yrs old and school/gang rivalry was still a thing to worry about. Y'know, it could start as quickly as "What are you two doing in our town?" And escalate from there. Fortunately we never ran into any problems and after a few visits, left the weapons home.

Yes. Do tell! 

Wow! What did you get, Bronze, Silver or GA?
Welcome to the Boards! 

Yeah, Passaic still is a bit rough. I remember my first trip to the PBC was by bus and me and my friend brought our switchblades just in case! Years later I traded my Necronomicon there for an Ironman vs Subby that I still have!

Weird Science 9 and Incredible Science-Fiction 33 have recently been posted, and WS 19 makes three out of three EC covers in which Wood makes use of the "spaceship interior with large circular window" motif.  Frazetta's Famous Funnies 213 is allegedly an homage to Wood's design.
