Thanks for the informed estimates. I guess I'm priced out of ever getting one.

 

In the past I've spent up to $250 on each of a few icon-type books, including a Phantom Lady 18, and $250 twelve years ago would = about $375 today.

Wow, what a load! Did you kiss the mail man when he arrived? That Horrific #3 is just stunning color wise. One of my top 5 PCH covers. I have upgraded that book several times just for the color but still don't have one that nice.
