Dr. Love Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 This is probably the one I was thinking of. Nice copy. Hard to find at all, even in mid grade. No slabs yet. Thinking about it, as I've got #2. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice. As with some other early St Johns, even the correct titles of these books are difficult to figure out. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 The auction is closed as far as NYC is concerned. Didn't get an invoice yet, but I believe I snagged both book I wanted(including IMO an undervalued pre code goodie!) On my way to catch Godzilla and then drinks with some friends, but if I did win, will share tonight( or should I wait till it arrives in the mail??) decisions, decisions... . Ok, later guys! Oh, why did I let you know there was still bidding on Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Love Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Told you I was saving my pennies for that auction Whole lotta pennies there, Sagii. And don't look at me...I bailed around $600. If I want to spend more than that on a photocover, I need permission from the Big Boss! Now are you saying that the #3 7.0 is yours? If true, I'll pick up dinner split the bill cover the tip!

(thumbs u Looks like you're covering the tip! It is the ONLY copy(to date)on the CGC census. :grin:And a nice looking one if i say so myself. CGC notes it's a Janet Leigh cover('Psycho' fame, Jaimee Lee's mom, before her shower scene )Just have to get Overstreet to note that little tidbit about the cover. I'm sure you and Sqeggs among others know how tough these books are. Overstreet lists all four issues as scarce, but #3 and #4 are really really tough to come by. Enjoy! 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Love Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Now I understand those fierce bids on the #4 much much better. I'm guessing you were not going to be denied that book. Well then, in light of your ownership of #3, and therefore the soon to be only slabbed Forbidden Love set , allow me to ingratiate myself and say...dinner's on me! Did you already have your #1, or was that you clearing the deck on ComicLink last May for that sweeeet 9.0? With this set, and the Negro Romance set, you are like the Stealth Romance Photocover Guy! Let's see if I can reverse engineer some of your holdings...small defined hard to find sets..unusual covers...I pick Strange Confessions for $200, Alex. But that's easy to guess. Next ones are harder. I say...Mr. Anthony's Love Clinic? and Flaming Love? 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
