Yorick Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Only a few Superior Teen-age Romances appear on the census (could be some others hidden behind a mislabel...), so I'll take any copy I can find and wait for the upgrade to come later. Still waiting on that upgrade... Dr. Love, SushiX, pmpknface and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) Atlas romance is nuts. I see some nice higher grade books going for peanuts then collectors get into bidding wars over low grade and so-so covers. I like that one, though. Nice composition even if it is more "cartoon-ish" than I like for a romance cover. Still, outside of a slab and away from Blissard, I bet it's a 30 dollar book. I've got the previous issue in a better grade, and it's the sort of book I'd have to put a higher minimum bid on than I like just because there's way too many steals happening in the romances Atlas is special, though, more watchers than other lines, all you have to do is put "Timely Atlas" in the description. But just because you get watchers doesn't mean you get bids, and it feels safer to list BIN for most romance.

Darwination Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 I'd noticed the discoloration in the bottom half of her bottom half and wasn't sure if that was common for the entire run. I do like it with the great curves and signature and pack of smokes on the desk. Dunno if it quite rates as a classic Atlas cover, tho apparently it does sagii and Dr. Love 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a handful of books I went after, and I whiffed on most of them. But I did win the one book I really wanted. I had to pay a bit more than I thought or wanted. Heritage can really bring in the buyers. After yesterday's auctions, Harley Yee's prices seem almost cheap, by comparison.

I appreciate your forbearance, Ron, and in general if you could stay the frack away from books I'm interested in, and in this auction there were many, I would appreciate it! Unfortunately many others did not get that memo and have bid very strongly for these books. Dang it! I'll post my thoughts and a rundown on this extraordinary auction sometime soon. 1950's war comics, Bumble Kitty, Inaflash and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwination Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 (edited) No copies of even the Fox issue for My Secret Story #27 in the census much less this Superior edition. When I sell it, I'll likely include "sleaze" in the title for you monsters that have it in your searches, GGA foreva, but I actually think the cover is quite the charmer. Scanned for the digital museums years ago. The inner cover is a black and white splash which differs from the American editions which were colored (the bleed of pinks and such to the Fox covers happens even at the highest grade - I've got a Famous Crimes up at eBay that shows the effect). The colored ifcs are cool, but I suppose if you wanted a particular cover minus the bleed, a Superior might be the way to go. Bad Girl's Confession. Do tell! Sadly, the interior art doesn't live up to the promise of the cover, though I don't think I really expected it to The cover restoration Edited October 30, 2023 by Darwination pmpknface, Point Five and jimjum12 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
