The Undead Thread: Pre-Code Horror 22 22

[lbcolefan]

I've never seen the ComicCollectors.net catalog before. I'll have to start looking for it on ebay.

 

I bid in most of these auctions but was almost always outbid. I couldn't believe the crazy prices on the precode books.

 

The only one I recall winning anything was the Executive Collectibles 1996 auction featuring the Aurora collection. I won several lots and still have Journey Into Fear 5 and 8.

But I like this painting a lot...

 

Its one of Feldstein's best.

Just for the record... the Capt. Science #2 9.6 Bethlehem did not come out of the 2000 auction... There are three 9.6's I believe. Mine was purchased many years ago from Phill Weiss the original dealer who uncoverd the Bethlehem collection.

Incredible run of Capt. Sciences', Sartre.

I only posted these catalog pages to show the younger PCH collectors a little history

of how ,where and when many of the HG books became available to the general public, as a question was asked from a previous posting.

Will there ever be another Spokane, Northford or River City type horror collections to surface?

Thanks...

If I can locate an old Gregg Manning catalogue I'll post some pages... I remember being at one sale when the Spokane Weird Tales of the Future #7 was sold for $7500 hammer... I think that was a landmark price back then.

Such incredible books in this thread. And seeing those catalogs....I have one or two books that featured in the Comic Collectors Net auction, but nothing major.

Beautiful books, satre!

Between 1998 and 2002 you had those three collections and a large portion of the Bethlehem horror books being released on the market. In the decade since, books have come out in small packets, like McLaughlin's Church copies back in 2006.

What's the cost of room and board these days?

Wow instead of looking at the book it's looking at you!

Does anyone know who bought the Baily Weird Mysteries #4 cover art from the last Heritage sale...or where it came from?

What an amazing item.
