I found another copy of this incredible True Crime issue in nice shape and it was way too cheap to pass up. And this is a new addition to the collection. I think everyone should take a moment to look at those headlines on the cover. "A Daring Expose! Sex on the Witness Chair!"... What the what? Who doesn't need more answers to that statement??!! And this is from True Police Files! Apparently, America was a weird place in 1950. Stunners. Randall Dowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I've got a few dozen of these and at some point, when I have the time, I'm thinking of starting a thread showing off the best ones. It may be a wide ranging thread showing the best of what I've got from many periods and genres. Not sure yet. jimjum12, oakman29 and Brandon Shepherd 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rescind my statement. I just took a look and it looks interesting. The last time I looked at them, I couldn't figure out how to navigate. But, after looking at @dover's journal, the whole thing clicked. That may be the best thing. Thanks, Dave!

Popular Post boomtown Posted December 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2021 I had been searching for this book for a few years and had it on my Ebay Saved Searches list. One came up in the last year and I tried to win it cheap, that didn't work. Finally another copy hit ebay and I grabbed it. Really cool Wrightson, Kaluta, Jeff Jones and Bruce Jones early fanzine. I actually see the portfolio for sale more regularly than the fanzine. Jayman, OtherEric, Larryw7 and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
