Thanks to Bunky for this one. Still can't figure out why its only a 7.5

Great books, Podboy! I always liked this Submariner cover; oddly, its one of the few Submariners I've never owned. doh!

New Timely motorcycle cover in the box today...

 

Earlier this week, I sat back and watched an 8.0 copy of this book go off in the Clink auction for $7,700 :o

 

I thought to myself...well, then...if that's the case, I suppose I can tolerate a 6.0 with a 12th page trim ( :screwy: ) for about 15% of that price ( :cool: ). I happened to know that there was one such copy on consignment at mycomicshop...trigger pulled.

 

So...I guess that at one point someone thought that the left hand page of the centerfold was sticking out a bit too far (shrug) Fine. There's more art showing on the front cover leading edge of this copy than there was on that 8.0.

 

Call me a "purple label sympathizer" :sumo:

Been after a copy of this book for some time, glad I finally nabbed this one. Such a bizarre, over the top cover. Shores matches Schomburg...

Great book, Andy - I love the "Torture Chamber #2" label as if the device wasn't already readily recognizable as is... "You mean it's not a giant Swiss cheese press?"

Obligingly written in English as well. :D
