Dang! That War Ships was awesome

 

Agreed.

We have a famous italian equivalent (with all kinds of war machinery) illustrated by our own, awesome Kurt Caesar. :)

Would have loved to grab this

 

Thanks for the info. That made for a nice trip to Google.

Hey gang, back from the flea market. Got a few things including a few old comics even. I will be listing them as well as my planned fare in about 10 minutes. So grab a comfortable chair and a cold one. Let the dogs out or whatever. I will try to pound out as much as I can today to convince you to part with that hard earned money. Alright, fingers on that 'ole refresh button...

I do not mean to spam RM's thread, but since I suspect he might enjoy it as well, the cover to the italian magazine is this one (title translates as "Our war's machines"):

Kurt Caesar has been one of the most important authors of the wartime period, and also in the 1950s with science fiction covers – I am planning to write a short biography to present him better in english. :)

You have a pair of episodes of his "sky pirate" themed stories translated for the US market in "Sky Blazers" #1-2.

Everybody liked the War Ships book I guess I sold to cheep yesterday... So here is another cool WWII Naval book for you.

Book and centerfold are still bound to covers but some bug damage on spine. Interior paper is yellowed but supple and nice.

OK one of my favorite Matt Baker books!

 

Movie Comics #4 1947 Friction House Pubs

 

Has loads of GGA including Mitzi of the Movies by Baker. Some of his best work I think. I love the way she breaks the panels so we can get a shot of all her "atributes". I believe the Slave Girl story is by Baker as well. If not, he sure must have helped out on it.

 

A tight, complete copy. Book is a little "dirty". Has a small hole in title in the "O". Serveral small edge and spine tears.Neat upper spine split about 1-1/2" long. Book and centerfold well attached to covers. Interior paper is slightly tanned but very supple and should be fine till well after we are gone.

 

$50.00

Prize Comics #13 Aug 1941

 

OK, this one is a hot mess but it's about as cheap as you will ever find one. These have really heated up because they are a great read cover to cover and tough to find.

 

I say it again, a hot mess... Covers are split, detached and ragged. It is missing all but the first page of the Green Lama story. The Owl, Dr. Frost, Yank and Doodle and Frankenstein by Breifer all appear complete. Interior paper is nice and supple and has attached centerfold. A total beater of a rare book.

 

$65.00
