OK - I didn't get this this week - I did find it in the comic cavern a couple weeks ago and had promised to post it. Adventure 108 NM- to NM , no cover gloss though - do any of you GA collectors out there know if issues of this vintage had cover gloss? I opened the cover recently when I re-mylared to check for restoration and it was all curled in tight to the spine, like it had never been opened. OW pages.

Oh...., probably not. I love the cover too - cool!!! I find it hard to sell anything, even some of my duplicates. This is one of the few GA I own, and this is the oldest and in the best shape. I bought it as a fluke - I had money at the time, and there was no HG SA in Reno comic shops, so I bought this and a miscut Strange Tales 101. I wish I had had more $ at the time, as the same shop had a couple CAs in the 50's - they were only in about VF, so I skipped on them, and made the choices as above. Anyway, I didn't know WTF I was doing, as I wasn't collecting GA, and it was a little scary to drop the money I did into this one. Although, if I had it to do over again, knowing what I know now, I would have found a way....,

Picked up some comics real cheap today from an LCS about 30 miles from me. They also have a bunch of great old war books I'll have to check out when money becomes available. These are all from the Jim Aparo run.

 

$10.00

This should have been printed with a mat finish -- and would not be very glossy.
