Wasn't aware Diary Loves 31 was a SOTI book. Will need to pull out and read for the saucy stuff.

With respects to, "Sweet Haul! Congrats! Will you be keeping most or selling?" No plans to sell.

This book was discovered relatively recently (2013).  I've stopped sending discoveries to Overstreet, since they ignored some of my suggestions and utterly botched others (like perpetuating a completely incorrect listing for SOTI itself).

Here's what Wertham said about it:

"In one love comic a demonstration is given of how to steal a "very expensive gown, Paris original" from a department store:
"I'll slip it on in the dressing-room. They won't notice me! I'll put it in that box and walk out, while the saleslady is busy with someone else! ... I walked out, trying to keep calm, trying to look and act natural ... Nobody has seen me! Ohh! If I can only reach the door!"

I believe some of these books ended up in the December auction in Allentown, PA.  The Tales Of Terror Annual 1CGC 5.0  sold for over $10K. Venus 17 CGC 8.5 for over $8K. The guy from PA that bought that particular lot made a killing. I won the Witchcraft 5 which was graded a CGC 5.0. Wish I could have been there for the original auction as these gems went for wholesale prices.

Congrats on the grades Tabcom! Great buy!! As long as you don't use those books as firewood for your fireplace behind the box,  you'll be A-OK :wink:

I cleaned out the fireplace prior to filming. :)
