frozentundraguy Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Time for this thread's quarterly bump! For the half-dozen old-timers who appreciate the DC fantasy/mystery titles (and any single-issue "club" aficionados who may have grown tired of seeing the same dozen Marvel keys posted over and over and over again). Just back from a late-Winter holiday in sunny Sarasota. These are gorgeous books. Thanks for sharing. Stunning books, and further evidence that the early books in a series are often the best.

Stevenrams Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Here's a cool greytone MGA : Nice, one of my favorites!!! Coming from the King of DC 1950s and 1960s Sci-Fi collectors that means a lot to me. I'll have to get around to scanning some of my other DC science fiction books--some slabbed and some raw. I just love perusing your collection. I can look at them for hours. SLR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICK STARR Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Here are a few of some of my favorite MGA's Mound City copy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevenrams Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Beautiful book, Rick. You have some of the most incredible DC SCi-FI books. Wonderful books and vibrant colors on all these books. Here's one of my few House of Secrets that probably measures up to your high standards. The grade is not quite as high as the grade on your books but I tend to buy the book and not just the grade. And besides it is the Bethlehem copy. Edited July 13, 2014 by Stevenrams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzutak Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 And here's four more from the Mound City Collection (which had many of the nicest late 10-cent era DCs I've ever seen): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 My, my, what collections you guys have. It's a pleasure to sit back and watch the near-pristine copies parade by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzutak Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Thanks, John. JT's fantasy/mystery collection is pretty amazing. Mine is merely nice. I was normally content with a FN/VF copy (or a FN copy, in the case of MGA), so very few of my books are in the über high-grade zone. 99% of my books were purchased raw. Thankfully, my personal grading standards are a bit stricter than CGC's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the HOS 7, one of my favs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
