  1. That's a very nice copy, but I'm happy to own my beater...especially since I collect books with drapes on the covers...
  2. Oh...here we go with Alice again...I'm going to find her in Pasadena and take a selfie... Here's her full name if any of you want to beat me to it and spend a few bucks on InstantCheckmate.com : Alice Amanda Norris...
  3. Eh...OK...I like the offbeat, Sci-fi/Horror, or Oddball Archie covers, and also the one's that reflect pop culture.
  4. Well, I losed too, but I was workin' and having fun...by the way, my big trip got pushed back by a couple days, so you can send those books on the 8th now instead of the 6th if you want. Thanks.
  5. How did you miss that one? When did it get listed? I was gone yesterday and today, so I have an excuse...but you?
  6. Where did the Romantic Adv 50 go that ended yesterday? I can't find it on the eBay sold listings...it was listed as a VG+...it was up to $483 with an hour to go, and I forgot to watch the countdown. It has vanished. Was it a scam? And speaking of #49...I have one too...just got it in January...not very high grade, but it is what it is...Cost? $25
  7. Check out this parody of Dr. Frederick Wertham from Mad #34:
  8. My mom is on the movie poster for "Crime in the Streets". That's almost as good as a comic book cover...So, nanner, nanner... There, I think I've successfully killed this thread...Bwahahahaha...
  9. What you are missing: (1) Dimples! Dramatic, delicious, delectable, distinguishing....dimples! (2) She's probably the single most recognizable face to appear on multiple photo covers for romance comics. (3) She's super cute.....a real dollface... Dollface with dimples... (4) See #2. (5) Do not talk about Dimple Club. (6) DO NOT TALK ABOUT DIMPLE CLUB. My mom was cute too...and in the movies...but she would be around the same age as Alice today...I'm just sayin'... Alice is still living, and in Pasadena, CA if any of you want to take her some flowers sometime... Maybe you could get your picture taken with her, and we could see before and after shots...maybe we could play some old Montavanni records too...what a hoot...
  10. Well, try getting to the bottom of why Blasincomics graded my TEC 310 only 6.0 or 6.5? See the PGM forum...You would have given it at least an 8.0, I suspect. I think if I ever sell anything on these forums I am just going to say, "I grade this book at $XXX.00."
  11. Sounds like some of you have way too much time on your hands...
  12. OK, I'm confused...I can understand collecting Marilyn Monroe covers because they are so valuable and she was an icon, or even Liz Taylor...but what is the deal with Alice? Is she a relative or something? What am I missing? Here's a song about another Alice:
  13. Sqeggs: Is this you? http://iliketodothings.tumblr.com/post/4994347453/i-call-them-sqeggs
  14. You think the woman on the cover is Insane?...She's not insane, the person who paid $1,725 for that book is insane...
  15. Sorry to hear about what happened. I would be wary of that seller in the future...
  16. I wouldn't worry about it...nobody can predict what anyone will do on fleaBay...
  17. I wonder if it will re-surface for sale again under a different name?
  18. Well, I was not going to be the one who "outed" you on that buy...didn't know if you'd like that or not, but again...Congrats!
  19. The CL 25 closed at $810, so I guess Squeggs was closer to the truth than I was. Congrats to whoever won that. I like the new value of the one I own...
