Just received a FC 178 that I bought from Bob. Very reasonably priced and service was on point. Book just as described. Thanks!

Great score. Awesome book.

 ^{Sounds like fun Jon. Count me in.}

Donald Duck Four Color #178 1947 Dell Pubs

Classic first appearance of Uncle Scrooge and cool Christmas cover!

A sharp, bright, complete copy. Has a small piece 3/4" x 1" out of lower left corner on front cover. Has a couple tiny color scrapes on cover. A neat 2" lower spine split. Small tear on back cover just above split. Small name on cover. No other tears or creases. Supple interior paper. If I didn't have a nice copy in my bound volume, this would be going no where...

$100.

Never owned a copy of this.

One always hopes for cheaper prices; but 90 % of the copies of this book I've seen have been worse than this one with the reds often quite faded.  I recall a CGC 8.0 slipping by (I think on the boards here) many years ago.  I think this book is still more under the radar than many might believe...

I've missed a number of copies but this one looked nice. As they say, "he who hesitates is lost" Good pickup.

The time has come to stop pondering on this purchase.

This book is so frustratingly difficult to find in any type of shape let alone one that contains some eye appeal.

   John Buscema knocked one out of the park with this simple and simply sinister cover.  The Cult of Killers story in here is just nuts.

I pondered a bit too long.

I will not get into pulps.  no.  bad.  no.

But that Yakima is FREAKING lovely.  

no.  bad William. 

Plus dazzling white pages, unheard of in pulps. I've owned a few and they're amazing.

I agree. It is coming. This will be seen as a bargain thread in the near future. I am not even identifying the great authors and artists involved or highlighting interior illustrations. 

I've been  a pulp collector for years. Sold my Horror and Spicy collection a few years ago. Still holding on to the Sci Fi.

If these were comics, they'd be worth a fortune. So much rarer too.

Resto doesn't bother me much, especially something like a trimmed page, which means I end up will some cool books for less than I think I should be spending. Definitely excited about the Red Raven. I've wanted a copy for a long time. 

Congrats. Awesome and key Gold

My avatar. Love this cover

Awesome thread. Just wish I could afford a few.

Throwing in an odd duck here. Not sure if this will make someone's day, or have zero interest. Pricing is also quite difficult, so def. listening to offers.

Captain America Comics #11; Coverless but otherwise complete; I'd say PQ is cream, first wrap is detached, and next couple are barely hanging on. Staples look clean. Centerfold firmly attached, which is a cool Stan Lee story btw, included in pics for your viewing pleasure. This actually belonged to my grandpa, and he bought off the rack. Spent many a year in the attic of a South Dakota farm house.

I'm going to lead with $400

Mixed feelings about selling this, may pull later...

**Another place holder**

I'll  take the Strange Tales 89 if 1st deal falls through. 

Some classic stuff.

Awesome pickup William. A fave.

Wow! Some really tough books here. 

Obvious and lousy color touch bleed through. I've found where there's color touch, there's usually some other work done. Top definitely looks trimmed and maybe right side. Seller would have to be blind to miss the color touch.
