Catrick's Cornucopia, PCH and PCH edition IS CLOSED. THANKS!

457 posts in this topic

Okay, it's coming up on 1:30, I'll have the first book up in a couple minutes.

 

I intend to run tonight until I run out of comics (unlikely) or run out of time and ambition (highly likely)

 

Tomorrow is for bundles, discounts, insultingly low PM offers from all you, general silliness if Baz can come up with a corker, and a soft close around 5 PM.

 

I'll start sending out invoices at 5, and when they're all out it'll be hard close around 7 PM

 

Stand by!

Mysteries Weird and Strange 7, 1954

 

No back cover, and the upper book is starting to split along the spine.

 

Fragile reader, looks good in a mylar, lol

 

Asking $12

Here's its cousin

 

Mysteries Weird and Strange 4, 1953

 

Same story, but not brittle. No BC, looks good in a mylar, but no splitting. Looks like it would hold up nicely to multiple readings.

 

Asking $18 SOLD!

Beware 14, 1955

 

Probably second cousin to the first two, but better genes in this branch of the family.

 

Complete, but cover is completely split. Interior quite nice except from some spine roll

 

Yours for $25

 

Don't let Belt and Suspenders Guy anywhere near this book!

...like this book, for example.

 

Haunted Thrills 5, 1953

 

Spine roll, tape, glue, and a couple stitches to boot! Interior is nice enough...

 

O'street G is $77, grab this one for $50

Haunted Thrills 3, 1952.

 

Well, this one has a couple pieces of tape, and a couple stitches, upper and lower spine. Decent enough reader copy with good gloss and a solid offwhite interior.

 

Yours for $35

Strange Mysteriues 19, 1954.

 

Well, we're finally back to the whipstitched books. This one was formerly whipstitched from stem to gudgeon, and then the thread later removed, which is kind of odd, because the cover's still reasonably well attached. Large spine roll that doesn't really shows, because the book's miscut, lol

 

 

There's a hole through the front half of the book to boot, RH edge, looks like a BB gun shot to me, which barely clips the art on a couple pages.

 

Who's got $20 for a reader?

Strange Fantasy 5, 1953

 

Well, that piece of white thread ain't actually on the book, it must've fallen out of one of the stitched books onto the scanner bed and I didn't catch it.

 

That being said, this book WAS stitched in three spots at one time, still has a couple pieces of tape here and there. Solid enough, with offwhite interior, pen scribble on the FC.

 

Solid reader for $30

World of Fantasy 12, 1958

 

General wear, but nice eye appeal, tight spine and CF, offwhite pages.

 

Not a book to be overly proud of, but nothing to be ashamed to own either, and affordable to boot.

 

Yours for $35 SOLD!
