This is awesome.

 

The Dark Mysteries is another great pickup. Next to impossible to find in grade.

 

Agreed! I am surprised that there is not a kitchen sink on this cover as this book has everything a Precode horror collector would want... :cloud9:

It's true. Is that a random head on a plate, in the background next to the girl's foot? lol

And that's what apparently makes the notation on the label. And I always thought it was because of the girl about to be decaped! Also check out that creepy statue with the hands and toes? just under the ghosts hand. Weird!

 

Ps: just noticed there is no hypodermic needle on this cover! So *almost* everything!

I've been wanting to upgrade my copy of Haunted Thrills 6 for a good dozen years; tired of seeing a little pile of brittleness accumulate whenever I read the copy I bought back then.

 

This one has a little piece of tape at the top of the spine, and an apparent color touch which I hadn't noticed until seeing the scan; would those take it out of the Fine category?

One of my favorite issues! I love the cover and the interior stories.

 

Great book! One of the best Ajax covers.

A hole filler.

 

Underappreciated cover imo. How was the pickings for pre code there? Prices crazy?

Not bad. Crazy prices? That's become the norm. I guess it all depends on what you're looking for.

 

A Venus #14 in 6.5 for $2600.00 seemed off to me. It's not a rare issue or a classic cover but hey who am I if they can move it at that price.

Sol Brodsky covers, don't command the $$ Everett covers do, that being said Mystery Tales 6 is not one I have seen for sale frequently and it is a solid cover.
