bc Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 While scanning this book, found a note between it and the backing board "From the Circle 8 Collection". No COA or anything, but it's pretty clean. -bc KirbyJack, BEAUMONTS, Jasonmorris1000000 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they considered substituting old Mayan/Aztec gods. I've never seen that but can easily understand why it might be. Some people got pretty carried away with the whole "prototype" business! That Strange Tales issue (76? maybe) that they're calling a Human Torch prototype!!! Really? Someone go back to 1939 and tell Carl Burgos!

Sorry to see that happened. This may sound weird, but if you still have the piece of tape, maybe you can trim the tape to it smallest size but still contain the lifted part and just lay it back in place? I'm not sure which would be preferable but it's a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frisco Larson Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Something about this cover I really dig. Kind of like an old horror movie. KirbyJack, bc and jayhawker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frisco Larson Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Actually, THIS cover has a similar feel as the #69, what with the long driveway and old house on the hill. bc, Jasonmorris1000000 and KirbyJack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
