    Donald Duck in Old California Four Color #328 (Donald Duck #2) 1952 Dell Publications

    Awsome book. One of my favorites. Donald chews Peyote and goes back in time to early California. Being a native California and an old hippie I guess I can easily relate to this story. Great Carl Barks art as well.

    A beautiful copy. Tight, flat, clean, glossy and complete. Has a small name in ink at top. Has a tiny "16" in ink at bottom of spine. There is a small red paint mark on back cover edge. No tears, creases, or pieces missing. Smooth, tight spine with book and centerfold bound well to covers. White, fresh interior paper. A wonderful book you won't be sorry to own this one.

    $125.

  7. Popeye 1930's Wooden Jointed Toy

    Very color fully painted wood. 5” tall. Complete and

    excellent, bright condition. Elastic has stretched though so he lo longer stands on his own. Easily displayable on a small doll stand though. Hard to find item!

    I'm not going to list much of this stuff this time unless I get requests. Doesn't sell well here as a rule. I do have a lot of this stuff but I'm trying to move stuff. If I get requests, I'll do some more later.

  12. What goes better with turkey and shopping than comics? Had a few days off, got some new stuff and dug out some more.Thought I'd finish off the year with my last junk sale of the year. I've got the usual load of GA, SA, some cool horror magazines and some random stuff. I've got about 60 to list. I'll start today and finish off tomorrow with the rest. Hopefully, you can find something you can't live without.

    Rules:

    No problem children or HOS members.

    Postage is $5.00 each for up to two comics, very well packaged. I will combine postage on multiple purchases. All will come with tracking. 

    I prefer to sell only to US addresses but might make an exception if I know you.

    PM's and offers... I am trying to sell this stuff and want to get as much listed as I can. I try to price fairly. I probably won't have a lot of time to review PMs if I want to get this stuff listed. An "I'LL TAKE IT" icon takes it first. So, keep that in mind if you want something. When I get done, I will review PMs (in order of when they came in). If you have a question (other than a lower offer) post it and I will try to answer you.

    Payment is by PayPal within 3 days FIRM. I will also take checks and money orders if you let me know after I send you an invoice.

    Returns: No hassle returns within two weeks from when tracking says it was delivered. Return postage is on you unless I make a gross error and in that case I will "man-up" and pay return postage. I don't expect any returns though as I've only had 3 or 4 in 40 years. 

    This stuff all comes from a smoke filled, varmit infested, mouldy junk house. (Just kidding!) Here we go... 

  13. I love the sales threads here. Straight, fixed price and buying from friendly, reliable people. Seems like nearly everything I bid on EBay, I get outbid no matter how high I go. Plus the added factor of not getting what you expected. 

    I have a specific want list but buy a lot of books here on impulse because I didn't know about them. I check off my want list quite often as well as the connections I make here. 

    I love to sell here as well. Fast, easy and people who are easy to deal with. You get to know sellers that have what you want and like to deal with.

    I rarely do the bay or the big auction houses any more. I don't need to...
