seank Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 A heads-up for all you pre-code guys. Marc of House of Comics had a nice box of recent arrivals at the Sacramento Convention yesterday. Quite a few very nice pre-code horror books. I'm not sure as to rarity or anything, but they looked nice to me. You may want to send over want lists or prod him to post a list of what he has.

TheWatcher Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Well, here's my very first pre-code purchase. After going through this thread, you guys got me hooked. I've just fallen in love with these books, especially the covers. I believe this is the first of many more to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showcase4 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 (edited) Jack, I have no idea what a "sepulchre" is, but assuming it's an environmentally friendly holder, archivally safe and providing encapsulation which offers protection from airborne polutants and moisture, coupled with a clear plastic front and back for viewing, addtionally containing info that confirms a condition grade and restoration check summary by nationally recognized experts on the subject......I wouldn't have it any other way for the 2nd highest graded copy of Reform School Girl!

Well, that's close -- except for the plastic front and back. There is a condition check of sorts before a sepulchre is used. I wouldn't have it any other way for the 2nd highest graded copy of Reform School Girl! Don't mind me. I'm just jealous. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjpb Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Just in today from board member GACollectibles. I saw this cover reproduced in ARF #2 recently, and knew I had to have a copy. Didn't think I'd find one so soon, and in this nice a shape. I love oddball horror covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnenock Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Another great book from Andrew at GAcollectibles. Don't know if I like the main cover image or the immortal side panel better: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
