  1. Yes, a very tough issue that I don't have. Nice book. (thumbs u Ken
  2. My newest aquisition. I love the patriotic war covers. Colors are much deeper on the actual book. Ken
  3. Wow, sweet copy of a very tough book. (thumbs u Ken
  4. Another excellent Moiera cover! Gorgeous. Every time I see a book like this it makes me wish Gerber had been able to publish the photo book of silver age DC's. Ken
  5. I love that cover and this one is nice and bright. (thumbs u Ken
  6. Fantastic group of books! I've always felt that adv 61-71 have the most bang for the buck.Three heroes behind those great Burnley covers.Starman,Hourman and Sandman all for one thin dime.I'd like to think that formula sold a few books. Nice! I like the covers on 65 and 71 in particular. Ken
  7. I love the final few issues of the pre-code period; the books are so hard to find;s it's a real challenge finding them is most any grade, but especially VG or higher. Due to the Cold War Comic Scare, the companies cut back on their print runs. What are your thoughts? That Adventure is dynamite. Great Book! Well, it is commonly known that comic books were at a low ebb in the early to mid 1950s, resulting in small print runs and, it seems, fewer copies being stored away in collections. Taking Adventure Comics as an example. #247 was published in 1958. A major key, copies were kept in far greater numbers than, say, #246 and #248. Yet only three years earlier, Adventure #210 was hardly kept at all, resulting in its huge scarcity later on. Yet at the time would not #210 and #247 be seen by collectors to be about equally important? Here is the last pre-code issue of Detective Comics: I'm sure many readers would have viewed the code stamp as am unwelcome intruder on comic book covers. And some of the stamps got HUGE during 1956, almost adding insult to injury! Stunning!! Ken
  8. They don't get much better than this. Ken
  9. Very nice! Love the Diary Secrets too. Ken
  10. What a cool book and one that I have not seen before! Ken
  11. Nice looking copy with beautiful colors. Ken
  12. Much thanks to board member TeddieMercede for selling me these two books. Here they are, freshly cracked from the CGC holders. Ken
  13. Great books you have been posting Mick. I really like the cover to the Star Spangled 79. (thumbs u Ken
  14. Very bizarre Kirby covers! (thumbs u The Black Magic 29 is very cool. Is this an adaptation of a Ray Bradbury story, or did EC do some type of story similar to this? I know I have seen this premise before. Ken
  15. I just checked the Gerber Photo-Journal Guide and the book is listed as a Baker cover. Ken
  16. IMHO It doesn't look like Baker to me. Did he ever work for Avon? bb I agree. Not Baker, IMHO. Not Baker according to OS also. But it's still a great cover and a nice book. Are the innards as good as the cover? The CGC lable that was with the book says Matt Baker cover. Any way to tell for sure? Ken
  17. After many years, I finally cracked this baby out of the holder, and I'm much happier with it now. Classic Baker cover in my opinion. Ken
  18. Did any title have more greytone covers than Sea Devils? Recent pick-up at Wondercon. Ken
