Robot Man Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 (edited) Giggle #51 March 1948 Classic Abraham Lincoln birthday cover! Giggle and Ha Ha are some of the best funny animal covers of the genre. I love to box dive for them. These are so cheap and in so little demand to most that they seldom turn up. Highly recommended and about the only genre left that still hasn't spiked in price yet. A tight, flat, complete copy with smooth spine. Back cover is a little dirty and some very small pinpoint stains at top left front cover. Bottom right corner has a couple small creases that barely break color. No tears, missing pieces or other creases. Book and centerfold bound tight to covers. Slightly yellowed interior pages with no damage. Was $30. Now $25.

Robot Man Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 (edited) Doc Savage Pulp June 1939 Cool dead guy in the closet cover... For a pulp, this is a very nice one. Square, tight full paper spine with no fading. Looks like it was factory trimmed at top and bottom but right side has some slight overhang. This overhang is real nice with no tears worth mentioning. Just slight reading wear. Interior pages are yellowing a bit but very supple with no damage. A real nice copy. Was $75. Now $60.

Robot Man Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 (edited) Tales of the Unexpected #3 June-July 1956 Unusually nice copy of this scarce early SA DC title.

The book has a very light bend from the top of the title through the word balloon in the letters EC. Also a small one in the guy's pants. Very pressable if you choose to do so. Otherwise incredible shape with no tears, creases, splits. Super fresh and glossy. Tight, smooth spine well attached and slighly off white pages. Don't mind keeping this one. Was $225. Now $180.

Robot Man Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 OK, last one for the day... Original 1963 Aurora Mummy built up Model Kit! A very nicely done kit. Complete with beautiful paint. These were usually painted with shiny enamel paints. This one is done in matte colors and really simulates the desert where the Mummy resided. A lot of attention to detail on this one and one of the best of these Aurora kits I've run across. Now, who else but Robot Man would offer something so cool on these boards? $45.
