  1. Just a heads up. I have collected war comics since I was a kid. I'm 57 now.

    There are a bunch of DC ten cent war comics of mine in this Sunday's Heritage Comics auction. Great stuff and they made large lots with them. Seems they are still ten cents on the dollar.

     

    I'd rather have a war comics collector get them if possible. Thanks.

  2. Two pulps from my personal collection in this afternoon's Heritage auction. All you have to do is look at the back covers to tell how nice they are. Both Weird Tales.

    One with a letter from the Editor to a lady who wrote in. Heritage describes one as being trimmed but it isn't. Slightly miscut. Both really cheap. 110 and 90. as I speak.

  3. I haven't posted anything in a while. Here's one. I remember my Dad bringing me a copy of this issue home from work to cheer me up when I was sick. I probably still have it. I actually saved all the war comics I had as a kid. I was a regular war monger.

    The Ghost Ace sure put an interesting paint job on his plane.

     

    Richard,

    Another.

     

    Once again, Everyone have a great holiday. Enjoy your family because sooner or later, they pass on and be a memory. I'll tell you one thing. It's lonely at the top. I lost my Mom right before Christmas last year and I'd give anything to even have a minute with her again.

    I have my own family now, but it's just not the same. I can appreciate how Flying Doughnut must feel.

    So all you guys and gals out there who still are fortunate to have a Mother or Father still, go give em a hug and a kiss for me, ok? Someday you'll be glad you did. Merry Christmas.

    I remember buying this when it came out.

    I knew every guy that had comics in a five mile radius. I Traveled to every store I could walk to. Back then, every street generally had a small grocery store on it. I can remember buying a pack of Civil War News cards from a shop around the corner and losing all five cards later in the day flipping them. That was like gambling for kids in those days.

     

    Every once in a while you'd find a place with a box of comics for a nickle apiece. And SOMETIMES they even had the full cover.

    Never had this one. I remember reading comics and seeing the previews for the next month. I was like an addict.

    I can remember the day I bought Blazing Combat #1 off the newsstand like it was yesterday. I can remember the sky. The clouds, the way the air smelled. Too bad I was over my neighbor's house being forced to pose for polorids with her creepy daughter a few minutes later. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

  8. Jack, atsa nice! You're going to show us all the other ones you have, too, right??!?!?!?

     

    If I can figure out where they are. I don't have too many cgc graded ones, but certainly enough to have some more fun. Most of my war stuff is ungraded. Nothing spectacular. That was my favorite reading material as a kid during the 1960's. DC War Comics and Doc Savage paperbacks. Thanks.
