LINDA TURNER MOVIE STAR AKA the BLACK CAT, another HOT REDHEAD! Goldenage

20 posts in this topic

Black Cat, the Darling of Comics, AKA Linda Turner, Movie star.

 

Hollywood’s Glamorous Detective Star, art by Lee Elias.

Harvey publications.

I wonder if she was related to Lana Turner…anyway…She’s another hot redhead. Not quite Jimmy Olsen;)

Linda Turner AKA the Black Cat is a Hollywood Stuntwoman turner Movie star. She knows Judo, can ride motorcycle as well as a horse. Her dad was a star in silent movie Westerns.

 

The books are filled with caricatures of old movie stars, it's a fun series.

 

I’ll be selling 12 issues from my collection. A few I have upgraded and a few I am sacrificing to make room for some other books.

 

As with all of the books I collected, the grades vary. I just bought whatever I needed to fill in a run. The later books will be higher grade.

 

None of these books have been pressed, although a few might have been spindled or mutilated…and many of you are too young to know that joke;)

 

US Shipping is $5. I will use a flat rate envelope for up to 4 books, after that I'll use a box. I have very strong boards with a wood veneer. If you prefer a box, I'll gladly use that instead at my exact cost.

 

Out of the US, shipping is at my cost.

 

I pay for private insurance, so that's included as well as tracking.

 

I accept Paypal, money orders or checks.

 

PMS are fine, but if a :takeit: is posted on the board, that takes precedence. Payment is due within 7 days unless you have pmed me first and made other arrangements.

 

I take returns for any reason, buyer pays return shipping unless I've made an error, then I will pay the return shipping. Please notify me within 3 days of receipt if there is a problem.

#11 Terror Rides the Highways! Linda teams up with a trick horse (he’s more than a one trick pony;) and together they foil a nefarious revenge plot.

Great color, some wrinkles on the left, the pages are white, and supple, but the paper near the staples was exposed to moisture at some time (probably improper storage), there is staining at the staples. Grade is GD/VG (3.0). Bin is $35

#56 is in very nice shape.Slight roundness to the bottom right corner, pages are cr/ow 9.0 or better. Overstreet guide is $160, bin is $90

 

I see the back cover didn't show the bottom as well, if someone needs a better scan, just let me know. the slight roundness is on the front not the back.
