Nice book Surfer...the colours (color for my American friends ) look fantastic. Do you like to have your Timelys graded. Most of mine are raw - vg to fine books. They kind of look really good in the CGC cases don't they...I have one Torch book graded, but wondering if I should get my others done .... not to resell, but just for appearance....mind you then I could not get at that wonderful GA book smell What do you think....

Well, another new book for my collection arrived today. Low grade copy w/piece off bc and lower spine. Some creases, but what the heck - how can you beat that cover.....worm coming out of Hitler's ear as he sits on a chair of bones and skulls! Glad to have added this one to my collection. Was a 2nd chance opportunity of eBay and I just could not pass up that cover...

Thanks to Andy (October) for another sweet Schomburg book!!! Sweet! Thanks buddy!!! -
So I picked up this one today from the post box - thanks to Andy for another nice book. This is one off my "Grail List" so I was just thrilled to have picked up this one. Lower grade book and has piece re-attached to the top right corner, but I am lovin' this book....just cannot get too many classic Shomburg war covers....one of his best (at least in my opinion) .

PS...ya, I much rather have unrestored books, but if that were the case, I would not be able to really afford the books that I want. When I recently picked up my restored HT 12 - which looks fantastic I might add, I could never have afforded the book in same grade but unrestored. To me, good resto on a key Timely or one of my personal grails -- well, I don't care ..... bring on .....I will take em all ...... Send me your restored, your colour touched, your piece replaced, your purple labels....I'll take em all.....

Those are great looking books podboy! I especially like the robot cover on issue #23 - a classic cover for sure. Great stuff. SS...I don't know how anyone can go wrong with GA Timelys. Is it possible - restored, unrestored, high grade, low grade. These books were some of the best ever. Covers that are what comics are all about. I love this stuff. To me - it is what comics are all about. I have favorite bronze and silver stuff, but I cannot resist this kind of stuff. Hopefully GA keeps flat for a while - although you don't see it with key Timely in any grade....to me, I much have a raw low or mid grade Timely book than a 9.6 or 9.8 bronze, copper or modern book. What say you...

This one arrived today...HT #21 6.5 w/moderate P resto. I love Schomburg covers and could not resist in picking this one up from Rich. Hey - Thanks Rich! Very happy with the book. I have two more war cover books that I am expecting two more classic war cover keys arrive within the next week or so, so I can hardly wait...it is going to be a Shomburg kind-a-month for me so I am just thrilled!

I had a few Timelys up until a few years ago when I sold them all, so here is my first addition to the new collection I am starting up...not in any particular order, but these are my personal "grails" that I want to try and get... Human Torch 5, 8, 12 USA 7 Marvel Mystery 40, 44 One down, several to go...anyway here is my first Timely, bought from LCS. Nice clean mid-grade book. Unrestored. Small crease break in cover top right corner. Great colours and classic Schomburg cover Hope to get a couple more off my list over the next year or two...
