Show Us Your Atlas Books - Have A Cigar 27 27

Even with crow pages and a miswrap this book had to be mine due to it's classic Heath cover. I will try and upgrade this one if I stumble upon a nice copy.

 

 

Does he realize yet that he took a bullet to the noggin?

I don't think so, he still seems concentrated on cleaning his bayonet!

I've posted this book but, iirc, it was a while back in a different thread.

 

 

 

That frickin thing looks like it was bought yesterday!!! Unbelievable....

One of these days I am going to take a census of all Atlas books graded 9.6 - I bet there would be less than a dozen.

 

A quick check on Greg's site :hail: is 17

Of course, I don't / can't know how consistent CGC is at listing Atlas Comics for these books and there are some goofy stretch of time in there, meaning it includes some later issues of TTA and TOS. You can amuse yourself looking at each title here:

to ferret out which 17 they are. For example, there is a 9.6 Millie # 6 from 1947 and also 9.6's of Patsy Walker # 8, 9 & 12 from 1947. Also there are both a Marvel Tales # 110 & 111 in 9.6

 

Also note that there are 2 listed in 9.8 including a Patsy Walker # 2 from 1945.

 

 

Here's two of them..............

The art of acquiring high grade Atlas books currently escapes me! Dust shadow or not, when you upgrade that one, there will be a line around the block for your undercopy.

Here is the other one. Still not sure which one I want to slab. I need pick one as I work towards to completing a pre-code ST run.

Please do, love that cover!

I had never seen it prior to buying one.

I'll probably sell eventually, but right now I'm really digging it!
