    I like that cover and the interiors of Wanted were pretty impressive too. Probably the best drug related splash published at that time. Love it!! What issue was that in? Wanted 13. I think I sold that one for somebody. Scan may be from Comic Books Plus. Thanks! It is much appreciated.

    Around the date I am expecting them to ship I pump the cert numbers into the cgc verification tool (cert number will be "0 INVOICE NUMBER 00n", where n is from 1 to the number of books subbed). It isn't the best system but it works if you are a non-paid member.

    This is cool stuff!! I'm wondering if anyone has the pictures of the Ghoulunatics that they were always trying to sell in the letters pages. I've gotten through about 20 of the EC Archives books and it must have been a decent revenue stream for them since they mentioned them so often. Those have been reproduced, so be cautious if buying them as originals. In the letter columns, you may recall that the EC editors encouraged readers to buy them, to help put their office boy through college! And this was true, as it was the office boy's notion to make them up and offer them for sale -- it generated a decent amount over several years and the office boy did in fact get all proceeds from their sale from Bill Gaines. Johnny Craig served as the model for each of the GhoulLunatics, with makeup and props and photography by Al Feldstein. Here's an amazing set with original mailing envelope that was sold by Heritage: http://comics.ha.com/itm/memorabilia/miscellaneous/ec-ghoulunatics-photo-set-with-envelope-ec-1951-in-ec-s-horror-heyday-its-titles-had-such-a-fan-following-that-feldstein/a/807-5554.s If you feel inclined share some pre code horror? You wouldn't have a nice Voodoo 8? I think it is a much underappreciated baker classic.

    JoJo... Welcome to the boards. The Superman 23 and 17 in my Sig Line below came from Cherokee in 1966. Nice to have another old-timer on here. See you at Terry's show on the 25th...Bring the JoJo... Hmm for a 50 year junk obsession I do not see any junk. Some very cool stuff there. Love the Voodoo Annual, Fight 40 and Harvey Comics Library 1. Welcome to the boards and may it be a long stint.

    [font:Book Antiqua]I can only begin to guess how many PM's are you receiving now... My advice: hold to the book, its only going up in value, don't fall for the fast cash temptation.[/font] That's crazy talk. 1st & only 9.9? Auction that baby ASAP [font:Book Antiqua]To sell or not to sell, That is the question... [/font] If a lottery ticket depreciated in value over time, would you hold on to it.....or cash it immediately? +1x10^60 Get it into an auction ASAP.
