  1. I think the Ghostly Weird 122 takes the top place for me for Cole sci-fi (with a nice dose of horror baked in).
  2. Here are a couple of my favorites (and the few romance titles I have held onto)...
  3. I have always thought the fellow at the bottom of the cover (with the witch leaning over his shoulder) looks like Harrison Ford in Blade Runner.
  4. Here's a trio of beautiful Baker covers, all very low population on census. Each one has a lovely Baker gal (look closely...they're there!) All in the VG range. $650 for the lot of 3. I'm not going any lower on these.
  5. Terrors of the Jungle 17. Awesome L.B. Cole bondage/voodoo cover. Try this one more time. There's currently a 3.5 sitting at $552 (with some time left) on Heritage, so this sweet 5.5 still seems like a good deal to me at pulled from sale…decided to keep this Cole SOTI book!
  6. Spooky Mysteries 1... VG+ VERY nice presenting copy that has two diagonal creases on the cover that are really only visible at an angle, with a fine partial color break, and a tiny bit of oxidation on one staple and slight transfer. (see photos). Maybe a candidate for a press, for those who are into that sort of thing Asking $500 $450 SHIPPED in CONUS for this one. OR take the PAIR of Spooky Mysteries for $700!
  7. Note: I use micro chamber paper in my comics, so you might see the white page sticking out from some of these books... ONLY 11 on the census! Spooky Mysteries 1 copy #1... VG-? Nice looking copy with what appears to be a bindery error where two pages were printed stuck together and were torn rather than cut apart. These little tears are in the margins of three or four pages but do not affect the stories at all.(see photos) $400 $350 SHIPPED in CONUS.
  8. Here’s the fine print: CONUS only, unless we have agreed on other arrangements ahead of time. ABSOLUTELY NO PL/Hall of Shamers, or probies. The first “Take” wins. A definite "I'll take it" in the thread trumps pending negotiations. I'm sure most of you know the routine. Please review photos carefully and ask any questions beforehand. If you are local to the Boston area and are willing to pick up, cash is always king. Otherwise, I accept instant payment via PayPal. That's it. SHIPPING: Unless a different method is agreed upon beforehand, shipping in the CONUS will be USPS Priority $15 for raw or graded books with both insurance and signature required, UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE. For bundle deals, we will have to work out something on shipping ahead of time. Again, U.S. only unless we talk first. Returns are fine within 7 days of receipt for raw books, but Buyer must cover return costs, and items must be returned in their original condition.
  9. That Beware is awesome. I’d love to have that one!
  10. Crazy. I was watching them, too. And kicking myself for giving away my white page 17 (slabbed, same grade) for around $200 a year ago. But I still have this one, if anyone wants to throw a pile of Heritage-type money at me!
  11. Thanks for looking, and for the offers, everyone. I am going to hang onto a few and move the others to another venue.
  12. I'll be closing this thread sometime this evening. I can do a little better on prices if people buy multiple items. Also interested in trades for precode crime or horror, especially Cole books.
  13. Underworld Crime 6, CGC 8.0. Crowley Pedigree copy. One of only TWO on the census. Tied for highest graded. $800
