    Robot Man got a reaction from Larryw7 in Oct. 31 Days of Fright: post your HALLOWEEN-esque Covers   
    One of, if maybe not the best Halloween books ever published. I will pull out my copy and re-read for the upteenth time pretty soon. If you have never read it, you owe it to your self!

    Not quite a mile away. My eyes aren't what they used to be. The trick is to know what it is when you see it.
    Sometimes, I think a flea market booth just talks to me...

    Not Mitch. The guy on the right is David T Alexander. The guy second from the left is Terry Stroud. I believe the tall guy is Bill Stout. Can't remember the rest. Killer store! They got so many collections coming in that they were just stacked in un-sorted piles in the back room. I bought a lot of ECs and pre-code horror from them. Some wild parties too..

    No way, these Juniors are awsome on the inside as well. The cover may be the star but the inside art is just as good.

    Robot Man got a reaction from sagii in [CLOSED] Sagii sale, Romance, Foreign, Baker, MLJ, WW II, more   
    Metro sticker or not, either 0.5 or a qualified grade. Missing page, back cover missing ect usually garners a poor. I prefer the qualified grade because of the overall look and the fact that the page missing is from a lousy story that I would probably just flip past anyway. A great copy for my purpose and one that I probably couldn't see myself paying up for anyway. 
    It just kind of amazes me that Metro would put that grade on it with that defect. I would give it a Q grade if I ever wanted to part with it. And full disclosure as you did. I don't buy from them much unless it's in person.

    By the way, Matt Baker seems to be the king of the boards these days and deservedly so. There are 3 threads here on the first page everyday alone. 
    Makes me wonder who the most popular GA artist of all time would be? Some, like Kirby seem to go in and out of fashion in time. Years ago, hardly anybody talked about Baker. That's when I was quietly scooping up his work.
    My favorite would be Schomburg. Closely followed by Baker and most of the EC artists. 
    But that is a topic for another time.
