Jayman Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Is Chamber of Chills 19 $1000 in just about any grade now? http://www.ebay.com/itm/SEPTEMBER-1953-CHAMBER-OF-CHILLS-NO-19-HORROR-SCI-FI-COMIC-BOOK-/331863472408?hash=item4d449ab918%3Ag%3AalYAAOSwNsdXQ6oK&nma=true&si=maIFKbaRu7z8jABe2yBT%252Bo%252BWwBo%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Maybe the Misfits reunion concerts in September is adding to the attraction... Not to mention that it's a rough black cover and one of the more sought after covers in the run. Can't justify the price for all lower grade copies but maybe this was a case of two or more collectors just wanting it badly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the cover looks nice and glossy, with a clean image area and the wear mostly on the edges. Honestly, this wouldn't even crack the top 20 wacky GA prices I see in any random month!

N e r V Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 It's a great cover. Not over the top or anything but a really clean sharp PCH cover. I liked it long before it was sky high and am happy to have my very decent looking 6.0 copy. The fact that the Misfits used it and it seems to regularly pop up on PCH cover galleries only serves to enhance its legend. I have a t-shirt with the image and Misfits logo in place of the COC title and the non comic going public regularly comment on my cool shirt since I bought it. Ive also met a couple people now with the image used as one of their tats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I weren't such a hoarder I'd sell one of my many high grade copies of this awesome book. It's getting to be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This VG copy on HA just sold for $478 including BP: http://comics.ha.com/itm/golden-age-1938-1955-/horror/chamber-of-chills-19-harvey-1953-condition-vg-/a/121629-13279.s?ic2=mytracked-lotspage-lotlinks-12202013 I'd say the Ebay buyer overpaid.

I wouldn't say, judging from the scan, that that was a VG copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul © ® ⚽️💙™ Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Got me this today also. What's interesting about it is the date. June 1938. Came out the same month as Action #1 and would have been on the newstand at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Andy, funny that that WT 22 would catch your eye. I've been looking for a nice midgrade. Very cool, very underrated cover IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grabbed it off of an eBay auction because it looked so nice. Not a cover I had paid much attention to, but it's a good one. I think it's underrated too.
