Popular Post RICK STARR Posted May 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2021 This cover sort of grew on me over the years. Absolutely a weird cover, as mentioned by bc, with overdressed men standing and falling into a lake. I like the shades of blue and the different color schemes of the clothing worn.

Mucheee1 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Just now, bc said: Congrats man! Think we all know the agony of waiting for our books to safely arrive! -bc Yeah, it was kind of nerve racking. There were 4 other books that came as well, and the wife was pretty stressed about how late they were. She thought the package was propping up some guys desk somewhere at the post office. bc and Jasonmorris1000000 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Frisco Larson Posted May 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 7, 2021 This showed up last week and although I know it doesn't belong in this thread, I figured maybe some of our PHM peeps might dig it.

bc Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Been meaning to ask, but anyone know why there's a ton of Mystery Tales in auctions the last several months? Mainly in CC, but seen them everywhere. Some hoarder finally sell out or something? -bc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as I do, the well will dry up and they’ll all cost a fortune. I did notice that Dale Roberts has quite a few for sale on his website. bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bc Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Double the wattage on a Saturday morning! One of several books in the Vault that have a "code" written on the inside cover behind the CCA. The cert number on all is 12060520xx and includes several high grade PHM books along with a smattering of DC & Marvel hero titles. -bc *Bronze age fan*, Frisco Larson, Jasonmorris1000000 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
