This issue of VOH #12 has just come up on eBay:

It is one of only two books I need to complete the run, so I was pretty excited to see one come up.

The bottom edge clearly looks to have been trimmed (badly) though.

Am I wrong?

Just won this at auction:

Only two issues left to complete the run! (#12 & #34)

FEAR

I've owned this book since 1991, but didn't get it graded until last year. The grade and page quality were exactly what I expected (I don't get to say that very often).

 

Outstanding book!

Speaking of 'The Thing'... Can anyone enlighten me as to why issue 16 is especially common in nice grade? I assume that there was a warehouse find of multiples of this specific issue at some point?

Wednesday is just about over here in Melbourne, I'd better get in quick:

One of my most treasured books:

Just in! EC's first horror cover. Low grade example but still caused quite a bidding frenzy on eBay.

I'll upgrade when something affordable shows up. (unfortunately NOT the CGC 9.2 going for $2,900.00 USD on eBay right now)

What a beauty!

This arrived in the PO Box today... This issue doesn't seem to come up quite as often these days (even for an EC),

Hello all, I have spent a lot of time reading this thread and thought it was high time to say hi. I am a collector based in Australia, which means that all pre-code books come at a very high premium due to shipping costs and the U.S/AUD dollar exchange rate.

There is 0% chance of finding pre-code horror at a thrift shop or garage sale here - the comics just never made it out here. That said: The 70's/early 80's Gredown horror reprints seem to be selling for higher and higher.

I am working on completing my mid-grade VOH run and am only 3 issues off (34, 14 and of course 12).

I know full runs of EC are merely a starting point for you guys.

Anyhow, here is one of my latest additions which arrived in the PO box with much fanfare!
