catrick339 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Good morning, page sniffers! Three early birds for you early risers with discerning tastes. Nellie The Nurse 16 Looks okay from the front, but there's a good sized spine roll, and there's a chunk out of the back cover. See that missing bit just below the upper staple? Well, it continues around the spine into the BC about three inches, an inch wide or so and tapering a bit toward the end. Sigh... Tight enough with offwhite pages, a decent reader and not a lick better. Asking $35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catrick339 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) Journey Into Unknown Worlds 24 Minor general wear, with a few stress marks and snaps along the spine, other minor general wear, just a whiff of stacking/spine roll. Tight spine and CF, decent gloss, white pages. Asking $80 for a nice one. SOLD! Edited April 14, 2017 by catrick339 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catrick339 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Real Screen Comics #1 (Real Screen Funnies 1 for this issue only) First appearance of The Fox and The Crow, ran for well over a hundred issues. This is a nice looker with some issues. Front cover is quite nice, but both staples are rusty, with a bit of migration. 2" tear upper BC, with matching tear on the last two leaves, gets into the art about an inch. Nothing missing, perfectly readable. Here's the biggie: There is a 1 x 3 vertical piece out of the lower LH BC, taking about a 1/2 x 2 nip out of the gag page on the back cover, and the gag page inside the back cover. Still perfectly readable, but there you go. Last two leaves have diminishing sized pieces out, nips a corner off the art on the last two pages. All that being said, this is a flat, tight copy, with bone white pages, and some big issues. Sure looks pretty in a new bag though. Overstreet is over $100, asking $60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Chilling Tales 14 Well, I gotta admit, this is a first for me. Rough reader, with the loose cover reattached with...get this.... electrical tape Three wrapping around the outside of the cover, three more inside the FC sticking it to the interior of the book, and three MORE inside the BC sticking it to the interior. Too bad, it's great cover and the stories are plenty creepy to boot. Interior is okay, cream - offwhite pages. Asking $40, even in this shape.
