I can’t find Haunted Horror 10 in OPG. Does it reprint the stories from Mask 1?

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

I’m surprised at the relative positions of these books so far

If I remember correctly it reprints stories from various PCH titles in the public domain. I have a raw copy I will check later today.

All the reprints have different stories from horror books they just put classic covers on for appeal

I flipped through the Haunted Horrors 10 and it contains a half dozen stories from various titles, such as Dark Mysteries. Nothing from the Mask series.

...Which makes sense! If it's horror stories you want, the 50s books have the juice.

$5k for a 1.8 . . . This one had been listed for a while . . .

Why so? Hasn't #2 been a little more popular at least in recent years? Are you thinking the Thrilling Crime Cases should be higher compared to the Masks? It does appear to be the nicest graded example there is as the other 9.4 has Cream to OW pages.

Yes, I thought the TCC would be closer in value. I still think Mask 1 will best the higher graded 2

Oh ok. It will probably sneak up at the end. And me too. I like Mask 1 a little better. The butterfly people flying into the candle of evil is just so symbolic. Emblematic. And just freaking cool looking.

The power of the "single highest graded" strikes again.

Or if you want to , you could put it another way....................the insanity of the "CGC label chasers" strikes again. 

Especially considering the fact that the Church copy which is supposedly a NM+ copy has yet to come anywhere even close to a CGC grading table and into the marketplace.

Really? How do you know all this stuff. Don't answer I believe you. So there is an un-cgc graded Mask 2 out there? High grade you say? Nice to know.

1. Be unhealthily obsessed with old comics for a majority of your life. 

2. Be old.

Well, although it's true that I must definitely be getting old, I guess still not old enough to pull out Chuck's Mile High Catalog to see that he had both the Mask 1 and Mask 2 graded as NM+.  

What's even more interesting is that he had the Mask 1 listed for $30 and the Mask 2 listed for only $25 and looking for takers which I guess was not so easy back then.

I sometimes catch myself seeing a question from a newbie and thinking "how do you NOT know that?!?" 

Then I remember that not everyone has spent 20,000 hours reading/talking about this stuff.
