KirbyJack Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 This reminds me: my secret Santa windfall has me in possession of an undercopy Two-Fisted Tales 22. I’m going to offer it in Jimbo’s donation sales thread. Get your buttons ready! vaultkeeper, jimjum12 and Robot Man 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 So cool. Other than on-line, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a copy of Crypt of Terror for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirbyJack Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Yes, I’m a nerd; and yes, I had time on my hands. I’m also aware that these values are not absolute. But I was often surprised while I put this together. Raze, jimjum12, goldust40 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I was often surprised while I put this together. Let's see what I can glean from this... I've got 8 of the books on the list, which I suppose puts me as a mid-level EC collector- not spectacular, but also not doing badly at all. I would have guessed Crime Suspenstories 20 lower and Shock Suspenstories 6 higher. Shock Illustrated 3 seems low as well. I would have guessed Weird Science Fantasy 29 higher, and expect Weird Fantasy 21 to be a candidate for the list soon too. Frazetta only did 3 front covers for EC, and look at how crazy the Famous Funnies covers he did are going these days. I have no clue what Shock Suspenstories 14 is doing that high. If we were going to get anything from the title other than 1 and 6 on the list, I would have expected #5 instead. Good luck finding a Haunt of Fear 17 at that price these days.

KirbyJack Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I also have 8. I was stunned by CSS 20, and fairly surprised that the Old Witch’s debut in HOF 16 is the same as HOF 17 (3). I know it’s rarer, but I don’t get VOH 12 being twice the value of COT 17. I think the SOTI hunters have boosted SSS 14 like CSS 20 and 22. Also, I missed the variant CSS 1 at $3000. Everyone make a mental note. OtherEric and Raze 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have all of these books but some are far from being NM. Here's the first five. KirbyJack, OtherEric, Skunkboy and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 The only two I've got from the top 20. I've had my copy for over 30 years now and yet there is still some part of me that is just amazed that I own a Mad #1.

I just used the NM- (9.2) price, the highest one they list. Here are my qualifiers.

Yours are just a little rougher than mine. Overstreet needed a "well read" category, LOL! In our cases, I guess G would be more appropriate.

Robot Man Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) I’m still missing Crime Patrol 15, Moon Girl 5 and Shock Illustrated 3. And unlikely at this point to have them. And like many of you here, mine are a million miles away from 9.2. I just consider myself very fortunate to have what I have. And, unless I am probably missing something, why is Shock 14 on that list? Edited January 15 by Robot Man Raze, KirbyJack and Mmehdy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
