And  that is  it,   gang!

I'm   going  to type  up  a  last  recap  this  afternoon,   feel  free  to pick  the carcass  this  evening  
or  tomorrow.   I  start   sending  out invoices  tomorrow  afternoon  and  evening,   and it'll  
probably  take  me  several  hours, 

Please  check  your invoices  carefully,   I've  tried  to  keep  everything tight  and  square  as  I  sold,  
but this  is by  far  the  longest  and  most  complicated  thread  I've  ever run. 

Keep  me  honest  folks!

Thank you Rick for a great event. This was my first time with you and the gang. I appreciate the hospitality and the good reading material.

All  right,   decision  made  

I'M  GOING TO  SELL  THE  SPIDEY  1,   BUT  NOT  IN  THIS  THREAD.

 I'm  going  to pimp  it  in  the  announcements  section,   and  put it up  midweek  with  plenty  of  pictures  and  full  descriptions 
of  what's  there  and  what's missing.   

I  just  can't  get  it  done  properly  before kickoff. 

 

Wifey is yelling at me - is there any DC coming up?

I  have  five  books  left  ready  to  go.

This  looks  like  a  good  time  to  ask  a  question  of  the  crowd.

I've  been  considering  letting  loose  of  my  Amazing  Spider-Man  #1

It's  incomplete,    I  got  it  maybe  20 years  ago  as  a  coverless  complete  reader,  and have  managed  since  then  
to  Frankenstein  two  complete  copies  together  out  of  interior  wraps.

But here's  the thing:  both  the outer  wrap  and  the  centerfold  are  still  present.  

Would  anybody  be  interested  in  this?  I'm  going  to  ask  a  pretty  good price for it  if  I pull  the trigger.  

Feedback  please

I am sure it will sell. but not me.

Rick - Is there a glitch?

Marines In Action 14

Atlas  cover  proof,   never  trimmed.

This  is  the entire  cover,   front  and  back,  inside and out,  pulled  from  production  during  printing. 
I  bought  several  of  these    a  few years  back,  and  some  of  them  had  production notes  on  them  in  pencil.  
I  still  have  one  left  with  a  penciled in  date,   coming up  later.  These  look  to  be  folded  and  stored  at  the 
time  of  printing,   all  are  nice  examples.   When  I got  them  I  managed  to  carefully  insert  them  into  toploaders  with
backer boards,  I  have  pulled  the boards  to  take  a  picture of  the insides.   

Here  are  pix  and  scans:

Whole outer  cover

Whole  inner  cover
