last but not least. That's all folks. I'll scan some more another time.

I love this cover.

One of my favorite DC war characters besides Sgt. Rock. Jack

I dug a few books out today to make a contribution. Jack

Williamsport copy of Superman #91 which is in the Next Heritage auction. Highest grade so far.

Why the indecision? Price? Average condition? I know next to nothing about Detective or Science Fiction pulps so I was out of my element.

Here's a good one. 1st Phillip Jose Farmer story. Predates his science fiction work by six years. I'm going to bed now. See ya. Jack

Hop Head Corpse. A tale of dope, dames and I forget what the other thing was.

Talk about a classic cover. I really like this one. I think the digest size are often overlooked.

WHERE was side show girl when I was single?

The one on the right reminds me of my wife trying to get me to try new pants on.

Two nice science fiction.

One of my favorite books in the collection. Jack

Very cool. How did you come across them? I love treasure hunting stories! A friend of mine is heavily into buying and selling antiques of all kinds. All kinds of stuff. Oriental Rugs, Militaria, oil paintings, etc. You name it, he has had it several times over. He's been at it for almost forty years now. He has an elaborate network of pickers in several states. Anyway, I wish it was an exciting story but a friend of his picked them up at an estate sale and flipped them to my buddy. He has gotten me some great comics for me in the past. The last was an 8.0 double cover Superman 24. Jack I was in a row boat with my dog when he called. "I have twenty boxes of pulps," he said. "I'LL BE RIGHT THERE," I replied. It actually took several trips to seal the deal. Mostly indecision on my part. If you can believe that.

The digests have some of the neatest covers. Most seemed unread. That's all folks.

Rafael DeSoto did a lot of detective covers. The only one of his in this group is the New Detective. The guy on that cover also posed for the Spider covers and many others during the '30's and '40's including the Shadow if I recall. Jack

Some more.

There were twenty some boxes. I just thought I'd share a few photos with you. Jack

Part of an original owner collection of a thousand plus 1940's and '50's Detective pulps I bought last week. Science fiction and some adventure also. The thing that struck me most was the nice paper quality. Jack

From an original owner collection of about 130 comics I just bought from Princeton, New Jersey. Definately a keeper. Jack

Anyone have a coverless Superman 3? This is In tonight's Heritage Sunday auction. Part of 1st page is missing. Nice eye appeal.

Yes I do but it's just a VG type copy (3.5 if I recall) with white paper which I am keeping. I love the war books also. That is one of my favorites. Thanks Pal. Jack

Superman 33 Williamsport which will be in Heritage. Twenty Six copies of Superman total.

Superman 88 Williamsport Copy. One of many Williamsport Superman in next Month's Heritage auction. Highest Grade.
