I bought copies of this book in multiples when it first came out, so I have 2 copies I am letting go. This is the collected for the first and only time, the complete 18 issue run of Fantasy Fan. These books were printed by a fan of the Genre who wished to make available to other fans something most of us will never have the opportunity to read. The original fanzine was very low print less than 100 copies per, and few still exist today, so having a copy of this book is a rare treat. The book itself was produced in a quantity of 100, bound and sold at about 10 books at a time over the course of a couple years.

 

Thes 2 copies I am selling at 50.00 per copy.

 

The pictures shown are of my personal copy, the 2 I am selling are in unread new condition.

Amazing Stories October 1941 with an Edgar Rice Burroughs Story " Invisible Men of Mars. I included an interior pic of a non Burroughs Mars story in this pulp as well, because I thought the art and subject matter was pretty intense for 1941.

The pulp is complete and in decent shape.

Thats probably it for now on the books.

 

I plan to list next a NM- 35 cent variant Amethyst Princess of GemworlD #1

and the Superman Test logo copies of Firestorm and Justice League.

 

I also have a group of probably 30 or so DC Canadian price Variants in nice shape I might put up as a single lot if anyone is interested in the Canadians. Let me know.

One more I forgot about.

Still in the original shrinkwrap Walking Dead Retailer thank you copy.

This book compiles the first 6 issues of the Walking Dead and was only given to Retailers who supported the Indy title in its infancy. I believe these were given out in 2004 or 2005 and were very limited in number. The books came with a thank you certificate from Kirkman nestled inside the pages.

I don't see it listed, but is there any Ray Bradbury material in this?
