I have no idea if this is rare or not but got it from Big Ron Murray yesterday. A real ilmpulse buy. Just beautiful condition. Gotta check it out. Might keep it and might cut it loose. I don’t know yet.

Everything old is new again. I just bought a Record Player last week, and dug out all my old LP's from storage, and bought some re-issued 'new' ones.

Fawcett Romance covers have a real wholesome feel to them, but very' innocent' romantic. Nice!.

This one is very challenging to find..... and the cover story, very gritty, is handled by Jack Kirby. So far only one in a slab.... but this is the kind of book someone like Robot Man, the box diving machine, might be able to turn up. GOD BLESS...

In all seriousness, I didn't include any links to my site or offers to sell. I bought these books because I had not seen most of them before. Most of them there are no graded copies of. I had someone tell me at SDCC that they had never seen the last issue of Thrilling Romances before. I just thought they were pretty cool and they have some very nice artists inside (some of them at least).

Two strangers on a train, an attractive young woman and a military man. She is glancing his way, catches his attention, and makes a very suggestive hand signal. His eyebrows raise in recognition. All of this is happening as a church passes between them in the distance. Can someone explain the symbolism to me?

The symbolism is- Missed opportunities & regrets, of course.

The soldier is looking past the woman at the church, wishing he had joined the seminary instead of the military.  He longs for the days of wafers and wine at Sunday mass.  He's also wondering if there is another means of access and egress for the churchgoers, assuming there is one on the front of the building but not one obvious from what he can see on the side/back.  

The woman, obviously wearing a beeping FitBit, is a Soviet undercover operative and has signaled to her passing accomplice that this man will be her unwitting accomplice in a series of scandals that will rock the military from top to bottom including the stunning revelation that both of them have tattoos that say "You Can't Marry A Stranger".

Amiright?
