Just looked. He already has some CGC examples of a few Yakima's. Pricey but pretty!

Especially interested in what CGC thinks is "classic". I kinda think they all are but...

That Fantastic Adventures is on my want list. Just haven't found a copy like that. Great shape in an 8.0. I appreciate all the varying grades as they come in so I have a reference point. Great books!

Another nice unread copy with a couple bumps. Really like the painted glossy covers that Avon and popular put out in the 40's and 50's:

One of the best shows I've seen in awhile.

AMAZING STORIES 1948 Feb. FINE (Burroughs) 45* Ballantine33 Chilkdhood's End F 65 VIEW FROM THE STARS/ Miller VF 24

Couple nice ones:

Not usually my bag but the prices were right and in great shape and the covers are great. I especially like the Headline Detective:

I can't even crack any of the sales threads before they get picked over or sold out! Leave it to me to abandon the comic market and fall into a hot collectibles market. However, are these hot or the next big thing? It could be just the 10 or so active people on the pulp portion of this sight bringing heightened awareness to each other i.e. I haven't seen that, maybe I should go look for it on eBay. When I buy a book I look at past sales on eBay etc. and often find that most of the things I am buying haven't sold in over 6 months even though there are multiple copies available. People buying in the sales threads have been the same 4-6 people as far as I can tell. Would be 7 if I didn't miss all of the threads. I don't think that pulps etc. will be "hot" until there are more books on the registry and fairly accurate pricing data..like GPA for comics. However, if I can get books, pulps, and digests that I think are cool for under 50 or 100 dollars count me in. Far cheaper than comics!

Can you believe his name only appears as a cover headliner a handful of times? Are his earlier works not up to par with his later work?

Great cover and Ellison to boot: And just love this cover:

That rock and roll gal is awesome!

Have a few people coming to look at the collection so am just going to close for now. If deals can't be made, I will start listing in earnest. I apologize for all the build-up, but never thought there would be interest in the whole thing all at once. Thanks, John

Still negotiating. Will get back with you guys tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

Already did cows, goats and chickens this morning

So far I don't think your stuff is in the deal. Only the GA.

Ok, guys. Someone has reached out and might be interested in the whole collection in one fell swoop. I gave them until noon Mountain time to come up with a number that is good for both of us. If we can't, I will start posting at 1 Pacific and answer PM's I have already received about individual books. Sorry for the delay, but if I can do this without shipping 100 packages it would be great. Thanks again, John

Bought this for the MacDonald story:

Scanning books for the comics purge and got these unread books in today: Since everyone else seems to have one: Really like Shell Scott: Too pretty to pass up: Awesome cover: Don't usually go for the sleaze books unless they are thinly veiled with a detective yarn but...

Sorry, guys still out there. The vets here and it's snowing...just taking longer than anticipated. Will probably have to put off until tomorrow morning. Bright and early.

Don't get too excited...a lot of crud only Lizards and I would like i.e. DC books

That's not all...

Yeah, we each have 5 acres and think we're cowboys! Not so much.

Will be a little bit off and on today...cow wrangling with my neighbor.

Tales from the Crypt 41 bought off the boards quite awhile ago 5.5 Obvious small tear/chip off left edge front cover Slight chip top left at spine you can see it on the back cover scan. From the scan looks like it's a spine split but the spine is attached at top and below. Just that paper loss in that one spot. Otherwise really bright cover inks and OW pages. 650.00 550.00
