JiveTurkeyMoFo Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Do you know how many Church books you have in your collection now? Must be hundreds. I believe it is a little over 300. Soon to be adding one of mine to your collection too. Awesome books and story. Thanks for sharing. Those early Jumbo covers have some excellent drawing going on. Pfft...and what would YOU know about excellent drawing sir..?!? BTW, Erin and I are taking the kiddo to LegoLand in two weeks for Brick-or-Treat, you should bring the clan. Now back to your regularly scheduled drool-fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetah Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 My new copy. Insane to see a book that is 73 yrs. old in this shape....beautiful! My scan doesn't do it justice. The fellow who owned this and three other Church books was really interested in Zip Comics so I ended up buying three from a ComicConnect auction and trading with him. Seemed reasonable to me though the Zips were pretty cool, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Added bonus. The IW reprint of Firehair 8. I like how this is noted as a 1951 Fiction House issue. As a kid in the seventies I was buying these from used bookstores and figured out that something wasn't kosher about these books. That IW logo is a big in your face clue!!

cheetah Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 How do you value these IW reprints? You don't see them very often but they usually go pretty cheap. I don't think I paid more than $40 for the Firehair raw. It might have been less, though. I have a CGC 9.6 Strange Planets 3 that I got for less than $100.

cheetah Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 I submitted the IW reprint to CGC for grading but they mislabeled it. I got it reholdered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
