Excellent condition. I am pretty sure I have a couple of these cards laying around some where. If it sells, I will try and dig them out and include them as well. $40. Take. Where do you get this neat stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJimN Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 13 minutes ago, Robot Man said: Cracked Magazine #6 Dec 1958 Classic MAD imatator and actually quite good with great art. Russ Heath cover. A solid, tight, complete copy with a nice spine and just very minor wear. These are getting harder and harder to find. Much scarcer than MADs. $25. Well if no one wants it I'll take it.

Robot Man Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Spirit #1 1952 Friction House Publications Wonderfull all horror issue. The FH Spirit issues are full of great horror and crime stories. Underrated books! This is a bright complete but fragile reader copy. It is numerous small chips out of edges and corners of cover and interior pages. Staples are popped. Nothing to really mar this great cover. Interior pages are cream to light tan but remarkably supple except on edges. Can be read carefully without pieces falling off. Due to it’s fragile shape it is being sold “as is”. Was $50. Did I say "fragile" and sold "as is"?... Now $45. Edited May 7, 2018 by Robot Man Raze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Georgie #6 Summer 1946 Marvel Publications Great issue where Georgie visits the Timely offices. Shows staff in story. This copy was sold to me by Stephen Ritter as a Big Apple Copy. Sadly, it is maybe the lower graded copies in the collection. Right side has some color loss due to water damage. Looks like another book was once partially stuck to it in spots. Has a tear in upper right corner as well. Back is water wrinkled and lightly stained although no color loss. Otherwise, a pretty nice copy. Tight, smooth spine. No other tears, or creases. Book and centerfold bound well to book. Interior paper is off white but shows light water staining through out. Grab a cheap “pedigree” reading copy of this fun book. Was $35. Now $30. Edited May 7, 2018 by Robot Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Roy Rogers #85 Jan 1955 Dell Puplications Annother real nice copy as are the next two I will list from a recent find. Hard to find these real clean as kids read them to death. Has a slight spine bend in lower left corner. A press would take care of this fine. No color broken. Back cover has a very small light crimp about 1/8" in upper right. Super small lower right tip of cover has a tiny crease. Fresh and clean! Was $35. Now $30.

Robot Man Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Roy Rogers #87 March 1955 Dell Publications. Same find as the other ones. Upper right corner has a slight bend. Also, a tiny thumb bend on right side about 3/4 way down on book. A couple tiny spine bends. Looks un-read. Was $30. Now $25.

Robot Man Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) Roy Rogers #93 Sept 1955 Dell Pubs Same collection again. Worst of the three. Lower right corner cover bend and 1-1/6" crease on tip. A few super light indentations in cover. Spine has two very tiny crimps.Very bright and glossy! Was $30. Now $25. If these sell, I could be pursuaded to maybe dig out a few more Roys, Genes and maybe Lone Rangers... Edited May 7, 2018 by Robot Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
