I went to a fun show last Sunday and got some EC reprints! Since these are going for $50+ in some cases I thought Id get the big keys!

Also got a copy of TFTC book on ebay a few weeks back for considerably cheaper than recent sales.

Nice grab on the reprints. Yes, the “keys” are bringing some good money now days. I have seen a couple in the $100 range!

I used to pass them up at shows and flea markets for a couple bucks apiece. Now I am scooping up multiples on the better issues…

No worries! There’s a cover on the front, and a cover on the back! 
Seriously, congratulations on the score. Two Fisted Tales annual 1 is one of my favorite EC covers.

What’s in it?

A few thoughts on these:

1. Very cool that they removed the censorship on Vault 32! They even added blood to Vault 30!

2. It bugs me a little that the numbering is off. 
 
3. I was very surprised to learn that these were fetching a premium. I have been looking casually, but no luck on bargains!

Not an EC but just discovered this is the only Graham Ingels pulp cover!

I love that cover. I’ve picked up a few over the years. Last couple of copies I grabbed on eBay and Bedrock sold the second copy here for a mere $15.00 in 2015. The first copy was just a bit more but much nicer.

Anyone know what the current market is for Mad #5 in around 4.0 or 5.0 condition (VG or VG/FN)? I’ve seen 4.0’s in the $300.00-$450.00 range on the higher end but there’s a CGC 5.0 on eBay now at $825.00??? That big a price difference for a one point gain?

Sounds a bit optimistic, but it really is scarce compared to the rest of the run, so I could see it jumping oddly with the general increased interest in EC’s these days.  The semi-horror cover could also be getting extra attention
