Tough book in any grade...

Patsy's red hair and dress almost looks as though it has been silkscreened; it really makes the cover pop!

Yup, not that I'm looking at her hair.

 

I know, I know - that's probably wrong on a bunch of levels.

Very sharp, Adam! This one can't match the condition of yours, but, ain't Billy so cool?

I had a go at this one but it went higher ($53 before shipping) than I wanted to pay. I did notice that it is absent many dealers' inventory while issues around it are there, a testament to the demand. It looks like a nice copy - eBay Link

Unfortunately, I did not win it The listing was poor and I chanced upon it but the book was too rich for me right now.

[adamstrange]

Ooops. Mis-read your post. I thought you were saying you paid higher than you usually did. That was actually probably a very good price for the book, unless there was something hidden that was wrong with it.

Here's my nominee for the toughest Atlas of them all!

I agree with Adam - $53 seems like a good price if it's in at least 6.0 - which seems possible - what other classic Atom Age covers are you going to find in nice shape for that little dough?

What is the Gerber rating on this book?

[Silver Surfer]

Well nothing wrong with owning a second copy. Might have to crack the slabb and read this one.

 

And this might be cracked as well. Lower grade books but with good eye appeal.

You hit a 7 bucko.

Couple more bad boys.

MIGHT? It is what 3's were made for! (You know that the lower grade books have congenital ODS (Oxygen Deprivation Syndrome) and must be removed from their confining encasement, led into the fresh air, and lovingly studied. You know that, right?

 

Crack it!

 

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

[Silver Surfer]

Well since I already own a slabbed 7.0 copy I am looking forward to cracking this puppy as it is after all my all-time favorite Everett cover from that era. Crack is good.
