elibowman Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Tell It To The Marines #14, Toby, 1955. This one is 3.5 or 4.0 depending on how much to dock it for the tanning covers. Good gloss, and the body of the cover is really nice. Dust shadow, tanning covers, back cover popped from both, but cover still firm. All pages there and attached, and still pretty nice PQ. Was $15, now $10!

elibowman Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Man Comics #25, Atlas, 1953. This one is pretty low grade. 1.8 or 2.0 here. Lots of wear, cover detached, pages are nicer, but there has been some water exposure. Was $10, now $5!

elibowman Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) True War Experiences #3, Harvey, 1952. This one is 4.5. The tear at the top hurts it. Cool cover, good gloss, some spine roll, some interior staining to some of the pages, nice copy. Was $20, now $15!

elibowman Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Heart Throbs #58. Again, a flat tight and glossy copy that is done in by aging more than wear. Tanning and dust shadows to the covers, some moisture dots on the back cover. Pages also show age, but at pretty supple. Let’s go with 3.0, but certainly presents much better. $15 SOLD!!

elibowman Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Heart Throbs #59 also 3.0. A little more edge wear on this one, but still less wear than the technical grade. A water spot on back cover that goes in a couple pages only. More tanning to covers and pages. $15 SOLD!!

elibowman Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Heart Throbs #62 in 4.5. Less wear on this one, and the aging effects to the paper are not as bad. Still some tanning, especially to interior of covers. But very flat and tight. Pretty sharp book. $25 SOLD!!

elibowman Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Heart Throbs #68 in 4.0. Same drill on this one. Structurally pretty nice, but aging brings it down. A tiny water spot on bottom front of cover, and also on back. The last two or three pages affected slightly. Without the tanning, it’s much nicer. Ok. The weird thing is that the last eBay sale was for $80, also in 4.0. That seems.....high. I’m not going there, but I am going to go a bit higher. Shoot me an offer if you think I’m crazy. $50 SOLD!!

elibowman Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Heart Throbs #69. Looks 3.5 or 4.0, but large rectangle cut from the back and cumulative spine split of maybe four inches. Let’s go 1.0, but sure presents better in the bag. Same drill on the wear vs. aging. $5 SOLD!!
