Or in my day, there were nine planets...

 

Which would b n excellent intro for the number nine book if it were a copy of any issue of Planet Comics...alas that is a collection I haven't started. Yet. But dang they are pretty.

 

Instead number nine is a gift from a friend. Without warning, the very first time I went to Ronnylama's house to visit with him, he gifted me with a stack of SA DC sci-fi books from his collection of slabs. Simply knowing that tese were part of the focus of my collection and no longer part of his was enough om Ronnylama to act.

 

And now they are all cherished parts of my collection, but none of them more than this.

 

At number nine I give you: Mystery in Space issue no. 75, with cover art by Infantino and Anderson at CGC 9.4, with a issue date of May, 1962.

 

This is one of those books that I have always considered buying but never did. Both sci-fi and an early appearance of the Justice League of America, plus a truly groovy cover.

 

Thank you Ronnylama.

Beautiful book, I love the covers and stories of this title.

I remember this day, you face was priceless.

Wow, too cool...both the cover and Ron's extreme generosity. I love those big CCA stamps too. Makes you wonder how the JLA ever survived the Gamma Metal Gong.

Fortunately, I think the JLA managed to avoid having the face the Gamma Metal Gong - or maybe not?

 

I've never secured a copy of JLA #3, with the great Kanjar Ro cover, to read...

 

Yeah - Ronnylama is unbelievably cool.
