  1. great books Rahigh,you are now an official Timely Zombie,welcome to the club(and say goodbye to your savings)
  2. The other two Timelys that I picked up are both Human Torch. The first one has it all...Schomburg, bondage, snakes, Japs, and, of course, a Subby back-up story! Human Torch #13 with a small chip out of the ULC, but still a beauty!!! And, finally, Human Torch #34. Not Schomburg, but just a super nice copy!!! That's it. But, I'm really excited about these books. I can't wait to get the other two that I have on hold. (Human Torch #17 and Sub-Mariner #16, both are super-cool issues). Man, do I have the fever!!!
  3. Finally....I get to contribute to this thread. I've had Golden Age fever for a while now, and, in particular, Timely fever. I went to the Baltimore con looking for 1.) Timelys, and 2.) Action, with the big logo. I saw a fair amount of Timelys, but they were very low grade, which is ok, but they also had very big price tags attached to them. I did not see any of the large logo Actions! There may have been some, but I didn't see them anywhere. So, I came home empty handed, which was ok, because I was able to work out a deal with a local dealer for these beautiful books. I actually have two more on "law-a-way", and hope to get them in a month or so. Anyway, I'm very excited about these books that I picked up today. They all have, at least, OW/W pages and the cover colors are super nice. The dealer that I bought them from has a large collection and guarantees them to be "unrestored or my money back", so I figured that I couldn't loose. I'll be sending these off to CGC very soon, but it sure is nice to actually look through them and read the stories (verrry carfully). Here they are, my first Timelys... Marvel Mystery Comics #56. A great looking Schomburg bondage cover with Nazis.
  4. Those books are just insane!!! Thanks for sharing, Doug. And, thanks for posting Frederic!!
  5. Another one of my favs. Not high grade, but still a classic issue.
  6. Another book with great colors. The Mole Man. Wow!!!
  7. Another of my favs. The Watcher has to be one of Stan's coolest characters, and this is just an awesome cover!!
  8. A couple of my favorites The #27 has always been one of my favorite FF covers. I gues it's because I can remember buying it off the stands when I was a kid.
  9. Best according to you...or CGC? I have nothing to prove. I'll let you drool when I sell it. Yes, it will be graded by CGC when I sell it. I'm not stupid...If I'm going to part with it, I'm going to take as much of the buyer's money as possible. A lot of talk...where's the book? A 9.4 or 9.6 copy of HOM 205? WOW Of course, you could save youself the ebay listing fees and just email redf1shing directly.
  10. Yes. This is a very nice copy. Sharp corners. White pages. No spine stress. But that staple pop at the bottom is too bad. It is not really noticable though. It's like the staple was never there to begin with, although there are two small staple holes. Strange. I don't know if it would receive a "Qualified" grade or just a lower grade because of that. Any ideas? At any rate, I just bought a very nice copy of this book last week!!! Can't wait to get it. In the meantime, here's a larger scan of my staple pop copy...
  11. I wonder when/if that will happen. I'm sure there must be some out there. But, as of now, some of these horror books are very hard to find in HG.
  12. That is still a nice copy Buck. This seems to be a tough book to find in HG. Here is my copy. It is nice also, except that it has a "popped" lower staple. By the way, I agree with you on the 231 and 236. Two awesome covers. Wish I owned either one of them. Do you have a 236 in HG?
  13. Beautiful books, Arex!! And, may I add, looks like you got a great deal!!
  14. Those are great looking books!! Love those Rawhide Kid books!!
