Air Stories March 1929 Astounding Dec 1938 Go to KCO. Many thanks sir! Just to be clear. L Ron Hubbard's name is on the spine (as in the photo) but he is not listed in the table of contents unless one of the writers is him and using a pen name. I am not familiar with his writing...

Still a pretty cool part of history. I'll try to figure out how he ties into the story. Thanks again! Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Amazing Stories May 1952 What can be said about this cover? One of my favorite pulp covers. What would this be worth if a comic book cover... A decent presenting copy in the bag. Nothing to mar this off the hook cover in the bag. Small piece out of bottom left corner. Small edge and spine tears. Some creases, and general wear.Back cover is a bit of a mess with pieces missing and tears. But who looks at the back cover anyway? Supple interior paper. Well worth having until you can find a better one... Was $45. Now $40. Edited March 26, 2020 by Robot Man davet75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pieces missing and nice supple interior paper.Amazing for a magazine that is 90 years old and probably the rarest girly pulp in the thread... Was $85. Now $75.

Robot Man Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 OK, that will do it for this thread. All I got this time. I will leave this up through tomorrow and send out invoices on Friday. REMEMBER, send payment promptly. Due to the mess in the world, I will only be doing one run to the post office. If payment isn't received within 3 days, deals are off and you go on my Do Do list! I might be doing a few more sales threads in the next month or so. Not because I feel the end is near or I need the money (yet), but I really need to clear out some clutter and it gives me something to keep me occupied and connected with you good folks. As always, many thanks to all who have purchased, or just gandered at my humble offerings. You are all great folks and are keeping me sane in these trying times. Stay safe and confined so we can beat this. The less people out and about, the less it will travel and the sooner we can get back to our normal lives. And, for gosh sake, look out for others who need your help. Check in with friends and neighbors and do wonderful things like Sharon in the sales thread. Check her out and help if you can. OK, sermon over, Robot Man over and out! jimjum12, Readcomix and Roo_Phillip 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
