Off Beat Detective Stories. September 1960. FN 6.0. Pretty copy with just a little bit of edge and corner wear. Otherwise a very bright and clean copy. $75

I can't say no to this.

Amazing Stories, December 1948. VG- 3.5 (trimmed 3 sides). I purchased this from a fairly high profile seller as a 6.5 but with the damage to the back and the trimming, I think 3.5 is more accurate. One of my all time favorite covers of the run by Harold McCauley $20

Amazing Stories, January 1950. VG 4.0. Glossy copy with small amount of paper loss at base of spine and general edge and surface wear. Otherwise, bright and white. $25

Amazing Stories, December 1952. FN- 5.5. Nice clean copy with excellent gloss and an exceptionally white back cover. Typical edge tears and back cover crease keep it from grading higher. $40

and the other 2 remaining Amazings

I have hid the Booster Gold #1, as December 1984 is the newest book that can be listed in this section.

Which reminds me, I need to contact them, since I'm going to be in SF this weekend as well visiting my sister.

So. Made it to Berkeley Comic show that weekend. Did actually find a few Pulps and some DC war comics.

So let me spin out a scenario here:

From what I understand in my limited tax knowledge - If you "cash out" crypto and reinvest elsewhere, you still have to pay capital gains on those profits. The only benefit I can see in taking a 90% loss is that you're attempting to offset taxable income the following year for whatever reason by showing a gigantic loss.

...

If you are playing by US tax laws this still does not make sense. After the SBF fail at FTX I dumped all my crypto at a loss.
Unaware that capital gains losses are allowable to only $3000 per year. I now have a capital gains loss that I can carryover for the next decade.
Even tho I am a computer guy by occupation. I didn't really understand these nothing-burgers. It's comics and pulps only for any personal investing from here on out.

Travelling to San Francisco this weekend for a birthday party. Hoping to find some bookstores that carry pulps and
Mens Adventure Mags. Does anyone have recommendations for bookstores and comic stores to visit ?
Not planning to get a car so just looking for stores in SF and Oakland area.

I picked this as the best thread to post this question in. hope the board don't mind.

That sure looks like Bettie Page on the cover, and it's going for big dollars online, but it's Bettie's clone Kevin Daley. 
Yeah, I'd ask her out, even with a first name like Kevin.
