Spellbound 6, vg. Defects are mostly confined to spine and back cover. There are a few rubs along the spine and a 1/2"x 1" triangular tear along the spine about an inch above the bottom staple. Page quality is probably cream to off white. You'll be hard pressed to find a nicer looking mid grade copy. $100.

Journey into Mystery 41, fine, probably trimmed along the top edge. Fantastic copy. Front is almost defect free, just light edge wear and a 1/8" tear at the bottom center. On the back cover, there's a 3/8" tear at the bottom edge with some associated smudging/soiling. Otherwise this would be a vf range copy. The top edge appears to have been trimmed. $80.

Strange Tales 31, vg+. Another tough early issue. Very nice mid-grade copy with most of the wear concentrated on the back cover. On the back cover, there's a 3" diagonal corner crease on the top opening corner, an area of moderate wear along the top edge, several radiating stresses along the spine and general wear. This book has been pressed. I don't think another round of pressing could get the book up to a 6.0, so I'll see if it sells here, $90.

 

Anyone know if the arrival mark at the top if from a specific collection?

Strange Tales 80, vg/f. Very attractive copy with several light creases that barely break the color - may not be visible in the scans. Back cover have a few minor gloss loss spots. This is most likely a circle 8 copy per the mark on the front cover. $75

Journey into Unknown Worlds 52 fine+. Nice copy with light edge wear and a 1/8" tears with associated creases one at the top of the front cover, one at the top of the back cover. I bought it as a vf-, but just don't think it is quite there. $60.
