CATRICK'S CORNUCOPIA IS CLOSED

One  (comparatively) Early  Bird  today

Action  Comics 70

Corner    and  chips  off  FC,  split  and  corner  off  BC  upper  spine,   another  corner  off  lower  RH  BC, general  wear,  
and  several  pieces  of  tape  inside  FC, couple  more    inside  BC.  Cover held on with tape.

All  that  being  said,  it's  STILL  an  early Action that looks good in a Mylar,   and the interior is tight on the  single  staple
with offwhite pages.   This is  one of those  hybrid  issues,   32 page  count  front  half,  24 page  count  back half, 
with  all four  half wraps  in the  front  half  still  firmly  attached. 

Solid   reader,  or  perhaps  a  sliver  better,   for below  O'street  G

Asking  $140

Maybe that big box store will have a portable a/c? I keep having to get ice cubes when I read those posts;)

Alas,   I'd need  central  air  to  get  the  computer  area   cooled  down.  Gotta  duck  into  the bedroom   to  cool off,  and  the  window
shaker  in  there  is   new  and  efficient. 

Luckily,   the  heat  broke  overnight,   high  today  around  80,  down  from  the mid- 90's  over  the  last  week.

All  right,  time  for  chores  and   a  bit of shopping. 

I think  today  will  be  the  last  day  for the thread,   I  have things  to  do  all weekend.   I  have  two  Marvel  Keys,  a  DC  Key, 
another  40's  Action,   and  a  handful  of  Brave and Bolds  to  list  today,   look  for  them  some time  this  afternoon.

Mid 90s and you're whining? We got well into the tripple digits coming up in the LA basin today.  Mid ninetys for the beaches where I am. Tropical Mexican storm is creating big 8'-12' waves so I think a nice little bike ride down to the water will be in order.

And when I get home...:devil:

Stay thirsty my friend!

Nah, the heat just came here. 96 already at 11:00 am. Ugh. After I hit the Post Office I'm going to the LCS. They have AC and there's a Starbucks next door!

Now, that's HOT for Santa Barbara!  Spent many happy summers there as a kid at my grandparent's house. Sadly, it got washed away in the flood...

I'll  be  starting  up   around  6  PM  this  evening,  with  ten  more  books,  and I  think  that'll be  it  for 
this  thread.   Fun  stuff,   but  the  heat  finally  got  to  me  last night,  time  to  mop  everything  up  
for  July,  and  wait  for  some  cooler  weather.   Or  Central  Air.   That  would  work too,   lol
