Terrors of the Jungle #17 (CGC 5.5 with cream to off-white pages) $750:

Another gorgeous classic L.B. Cole cover. Terrific black background. I like the effect of dripping blood to highlight the title. Note the position of the young lass about to be burned at the stake- dead center of the comic. Immediately your eyes focus there. Then they slowly peruse the surrounding savagery.

Another extraordinary cover by the master!

Used in Seduction of the Innocent.

you mean the first buyer?  Me?  I've been called a "big girl's blouse" before by a British pal, but no...

It must be the pain killers. I fazed out and thought I was in Baker Romance. duh

 

Nice books BTW

Crime Reporter #1 (CGC 5.0 with cream to off-white pages) $325:

This is the first issue of a short three-issue run published by St John in 1948. Nice Bob Lubbers “headlights” cover. Clean cover with no stamps, writing or other ink marks. Let’s hope this Brunette has a life net waiting for her. Looks like a long way down.

Bright colorful light-hearted “good girl art” cover by Jack Sparling. Some great art inside also by Jack Sparling. Super white back cover.

Tied for 2nd highest grade with two others. Only one graded higher. Only six in census.

Terrifying Tales #14 (CGC 5.0 with off-white to white pages.) $550:

Classic gorgeous L.B. Cole bondage cover. Excellent centering and structure. Cole’s fascination and love with animal illustrations continues here with two stunning black panthers.

Third highest graded. Difficult to own with only six in census.
