Super Mystery Comics               $350

Volum36 Number 4

One of my favourite covers from the run - I don't mind holding on to this one... I may claim it myself when I'm finished posting.

Picked this up from a boardie last year - offering it at the same price

 

Single staple book with some rust, centrefold detached 

Light creasing on both top corners of the book - hard to see on the scans

Tales of Horror 6                         $100 . ----- sold to ComCav

Vampire University Collection (according to Metropolis)

Metro graded this as a 4.5, white pages and glossy  — I’d put it at a 3.5 

Tears at staples

Small pencil on top left of cover 

Many nicks and edgeware around back cover 

Lots of creases as can be seen in the scan

 

I bought it less for the girl and more for the ‘flaming type at the top’ as a designer I like that kind of flare

Witches Tales                $125 .  sold to X_Phile

Great gloss on this cover 

The cover seems to be cut short on the top - which I think is a production error (please chime in if you think otherwise)

There is a small chip out of the top of cover and a super small crease on the top right cover

foxing along top of back cover

Great back cover

well - if you haven't figured it already - I tend to post in alphabetical order.... 

So that's it for tonight ---- hopefully you saw some cool covers and had some fun. 

 

I still have a handful of $25 to $50 books to scans that may make it into this thread tomorrow --- maybe I'll make it GGA starter lot at one price... 

 

I'll update the recap thread and the individual posts to mark sold books at the end of the night and then will reply to any PMs.
