Show us your beater Holy Grail !

[Mephisto]

Here's my Spider

 

 

Great Spider cover - probably the goriest one I've seen.

Must..buy...more ...pulps!

 

Yep, the lady in the red dress really got.

 

I have nipples, Greg, could you milk me?

[jimm94]

Here's mine. It's not a golden age book... Heck, it's arguably THE silver age book (along with AF 15) if you're a Marvel fan. I do hope to upgrade in the future, but it's my baby for now.

I love this book. Picked it up about 20 years ago. I certainly can afford a better copy, but I have always loved this one. Both covers completely separated from the book (in fact, this image is nothing but the cover!) and even those are beat up!

 

[Apotheosis]

I think I'm the only one here that actually collects Wings, but this is my baby... Grades out at about a 3.0, but it's still great to look at. Not to mention there's less fear of damaging it when I read it.... again.

 

[Harvey Dude]

Heck, I think that looks pretty darn good!

 

One of those cases, where the scan looks nicer than the actual book (Famous Funnies). That is why I never bothered to CGC it. I would rate it a good.

Flame #3 Ajax 1955 Gerber 6

 

Not my holy grial and just sold for a staggering £6.56

but beat up and then some!

 

[EwanUK]

and the reason I came by it - my favourite 1950s series... Nature Boy

 

have two in CGC 9.0 and 9.4 - but love beat up copies too

 

just look at him, he's such a happy chap!!!

[Aces]

Had.

Got to get another one day...

 

[OldGuy]

The Teen-age Romances was a super tough book for me. I've only seen 1 copy on E-bay in 6 years. Love that cover

 

 

 

That's my kind of girl!

[shrunkenhead]

"Did I give my lips too freely?" Oh my!

[Silver Surfer]

"That little cheat will do anything to hold " Wacky stuff.

[*paull*]

So where's the Captain America #1 with a half-cover? Marvel Mystery #1 with crayon all over it? Whiz #2 with rat chews? Keep 'em comin!

[Shield]

Here's the first Pep #23 I bought - what a beater, but I loved it...totally!

 

[Shield]

Here's even a worse beater, but it's the intro & first appearance of Veronica Lodge!

I think I put this one under my pillow!

 

[Luxxcorp-migration]

One of around 30 golden agers I own.

[rjpb]

Here's even a worse beater, but it's the intro & first appearance of Veronica Lodge!

I think I put this one under my pillow!

 

 

What the hell is that grey stuff - it looks like aluminum window glazing.

[FlyingDonut]

One of the greatest covers EVER:

 

[rob_react]

I already posted this in the Cigar thread, but I'm thrilled to have this one. I have already looked into getting it restored though.

 

Complete?
