79 posts in this topic

3 D Sheena , It's a nice copy, at least a VG/F, with non color breaking creases, but the original glasses are not there. I'm including a pair of Harvey glasses and I'm pricing it just over the good price $75.00

and last but certainly not least...

 

Target #5, Wolverton, Origin of the White Streak. 1940, and it’s a very tough book. The good news is the pages are about white, the colors on the cover are great and it looks wonderful in a mylar. The bad news is, the cover is detached and there are 3 splits, about 50% of the cover …and there is a panel cut from the Bulls Eye Bill Story. $350

I'm not going to grade it, but I figure it's less than good...It's got tape on the cover (I don't know if you can see it, and a few other pieces. The cover is taped on to the first wrap, plus a few more pieces inside., there are a few loose centerfolds too. Pages seem OK except the centerfold is somewhat split at the fold.

 

It seems to be rare, there are only 5 on the census and the only ones I could find was one on eBay that has a sticker glued to it and a big coupon cut from the back . The one actually looks better if you just look at the cover.

 

For some reason I paid $75 for it ...it's complete at least...and I'd take $75,

 

or if you think it's not worth it, you can make an offer and I'll decide or put it on eBay or something:)

It's complete, the cover is about a VG, but it's detached and the insides supple, but they are not exactly cut properly, and two or so folds are detached, I saw a few little pieces of tape. I guess the grade is good and I am guessing on this one.

Popular Comics #61, Dell, 1941.

In addition to the Voice, this one has Professor Supermind and Son. It's a fascinating series if you are not familiar with it, because way back, 70 years ago, he was using a giant television (remember when they first came out they were tiny) to locate anything...(GPS:) and the fact that he basically shoots his son up with some kind of electrical HR? rays to make him Super is pretty neat, too;) You'll have to read it and see:)

I like that cover. Schomburg initialed it in the right corner but he didn't put his mark on some of the other AOs.
