Robot Man

I was more than happy to score this from Bedrock at WonderCon. One of the few titles that I actually read. I'm usually just a cover guy on pulps and this one sure grabbed my attention. Thanks Richard!

Was VERY happy to find these at or slightly below guide. These two seem to really be taking off on the "bay"

Gotta nice new Planet at WonderCon with real bright color. Always nice to add one to the junk pile.

But I love some of the other ones even more...

I too love them Marvel bathing suit covers

Some cool WonderCon crime pick=ups...

Thumbs down Brian, ferget about it...

Cool book though...

I was set up as a vendor/seller at a local antique and collectible show this weekend. Guy tells me he has some books, asks if I would look at them. Of course, I said yes but was expecting typical 90's stuff.  Not 90's drek! I ended up purchasing the entire lot.  Pics below. There were a few other golden age books or parts of them/coverless and a totally roached Sensation Comics #70.  

 

Wow, fun surprise! Some real cool books there and a couple in pretty nice shape. Nice that there are still some older books yet to be discovered out there.

Always fun to find an undisclosed marked pedigree. I often find Cookvilles, Cosmic Aeroplanes and others. I have found several San Francisco/Riley books with the stamp up in the Bay Area but it's been quite a while.

Thanks

Here are some non-Schadow pulps from my collection:

 

 

Love that Spicy Mystery. One of the best in the run. That hand with the hypo just makes it. Also that Dime Detective is killer. Never seen that one before.

That is just me I am sure many don't care but my eye can't stop looking at it and it drives me nuts. As for a creator's signature I simply don't understand that market but again some people enjoy it so.

I don't mind a creator's sig on a book. As a matter of fact I have many from back in the day. Lots that have passed on. Glad I did it and enjoyed the experience. I almost always have them in ball point pen at the bottom of the splash page they worked on. Only once did I have a cover sig. I got a Superman creator to sign the front cover of a Supe #9. I was young and excited and it was a big yellow cover. Really don't mind it at all now.

I think Mr Bedrock has a nice "cat pee" Chessler...

Oh man, I would sure love to have a nice Feldstein page like that!

for some sick reason i've always wanted a Church cat pee book.

But I don't want it to be surprise cat pee.Urine must be disclosed.

 

At one time I had a few Mile High Chesslers with cat pee that I got from John McGaughlin. Couldn't figure out why until I noticed the piles oh Mile High books sitting unbagged on his floor. He had cats running all over the place.

He and Burrell Rowe didn't take very good care of their Mile Highs...

OK, I've finally joined the Planet club...just got this...not the best cover, or the most valuable, or the scarcest...but I like it, and it was graded (but I yanked it out of the holder ).

Nice one Brian. Rarely see that one for sale. I rarely get many any more. Threads like this one are really driving the prices up. I did fill 3 holes in my run at WonderCon last week though.

Yeah. I had a Spirit 22 one time that probably could have taken down my house. 

I saw someone on YouTube talking about freezing the book to get rid of the mold.  

I remember that one Rick. Yeah pretty knarly. Mold and rat chews are just nasty.

Last year I was fortunate enough to pick-up 50+ Bakers, and am up to 20+ already this year, yet this is my highest-graded so far.

Interesting suggestive cover, I really like it. 

Cool book Steve and a remarkable copy. Now post some of those cool beaters you got from Harley that I stupidly passed on...

Exact same. Also, going along with the mold, a book that has odor that makes me wheeze for the next 24 hours. 

I'm also afraid of mold transferring to other books in the box.

Lookie what the mail man brought me today just in time for the first week of baseball?
