Popular Post rjpb Posted May 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) Many of you are aware of the La Prensa Spanish language full color reprints of precode horror (and later post-code fantasy) in Cuentos de Brujas, Cumbres de Tortura and Misterios del Gato Negro, which went from showcasing Harvey books to Ajax Farrell to Atlas. What I had never seen before was one of the squarebound Cuentos de Brujas Numeros Extaordinario - a six issue run from 1954. This is the first issue, which has an unusual woodgrain pattern for the background (both front and back) of a recycled Ajax cover. The cover stock is of the thicker type sometimes found on squarebounds. I don't know how rare these actually are, but I'm guessing they are less common than than the regular sized issues. The stain on the front cover is not as milky looking in hand. Edited May 12, 2021 by rjpb Jayman, Larryw7, Sarg and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post manetteska Posted May 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 13, 2021 Never thought I’d be able to get a decent copy of this. Rather excited.

It's why I liked my saved search: I didn't have to have 100+ specific searches for a title; as long as it was listed in GA I would see it. And on a lot of feebay stuff, if it's a good price, it's gone fast. It was still not cheap, but appears to be a good purchase compared to other recent sales.
