Airboy Comics  V3 #4

Bit of  a  wobble  to  the FC,  not as noticeable in hand,   chips out  lower  edge FC, light  water  top  edge FC,   and  the BC  has  been  stuck 
to  another  book  at one time or another  and  there  was   ink and paper transfer  both  directions.  Rusty  staples  with migration. 
Tight enough,  cream - offwhite pages.

Grab  a decent reader for $20

Hey, probably cheaper than roses and so much more thoughtful!  :x

Um... well, to be honest. I will include that with roses. Take my word, believe me... I got good advice from ladies, that all women likes and expects roses. Anything goes with flowers is considered as bonus leverage. :x

Everybody  but  my  wife.   She  doesn't  care for  roses,   and prefers  carnations.  But then  I  don't  send her  flowers  on  Valentines  Day,  I  pick  a  couple   random  days
during  the  year  and  send  her  flowers.  Oh,  and  always  on  Armstrong Day.

Your are right in what yo said ... especially with allergies.  I’m just an old bachelor man, so that was what I was told years ago ... oh well. A catrick339 is right what he said ...  think ahead and know your love better than your enemy! It will save my hide.

Here's one  I've never seen  before.

Juice Use
16 pages  plus  a  wrap  around  cover in...get  this....two color.  Same  scheme  inside,  but  at  least  they  used  the  black  plate  too. 

The  whole  thing is  a  1974  diatribe  against   excessive  drinking, and  sister  publications  mentioned  inside  include  Heavy  Facts  About  Sex,  What Do  You  Do 
When You're  All  Drug  Doubt? (sic) Gut  News  For  Modern  Eaters,  and  V D Claptrap.  Printed in Syracuse,  NY

The  whole  20 page  package  is  in  great  shape,  with just  a  whiff  of  general  wear,  and  white pages.   This is  about  the size  of  a  Newsweek  magazine. 
Man.  those  New Yorkers  did  some  funny  stuff  in the 70's,  didn't  they?

Asking  $30
