Robot Man Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) SOLD! Ha Ha #46 Oct 1947 One more can be said about this cover? A real favorite that I always get numerous comments on when I post it. A "wall book" for me that sells quickly everytime I am lucky enough to have an extra copy for sale. All right, enough of the hype... A nice solid copy with incredible color. Has some spine wear and a couple long, light creases in lower right corner. No tears or missing pieces. Nice interior pages. Either box dive a LOT or try to outbid me on the bay when every once in a while one appears. $45.

Robot Man Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 Black Cat Mystery #36 June 1952 Beautiful black cover. Used in Seduction of the Innocent on pages 270-271. Violent, sick issue. People eaten by rats and sharks, whipping, burned alive. I can see why the good Doctor loved this one. Covers are very neatly split and detached. Very slight corner at top edge wear. Covers are very glossy and bright. No pieces missing, no creases and no tears. Interior is tight and clean with real nice white pages and no damage. Looks great "in the mylar". Has been my personal copy for a few years. Got an attached one but it doesn't look nearly as nice as this one does in the mylar. $70.

Colorful and bright. Has some minor color scuffing and spotting here and there. Corners are nice with no denting. Christa Lee Shaw lightly scratched her name with Room K on top edge of one side. Inside is a bit dirty and has some stickers attached. Could probably be cleaned up pretty easily if desired. A great piece that would be gone quick if I could be at my flea market space... $50. This is a special piece to me. I had this one in third grade I believe, and I absolutely loved it. I would buy it in a minute if I didn't have one I bought years ago (I also collect boxes to my wife's chagrin). This is not an easy one to find in my opinion. I do love the stickers and name scratching as well. Great find! bounty_coder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very clever and it scored them an interview! I still have the lunchbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never got a resume in the form of a comic; that would have made my day!! While an art director in an ad agency, I got a resume inside of a 1950's Batman comic book. Thought it was great work on her part to do her home work. She knew somebody on the inside and he told her I collected old comics. Yeah, she got the interview and although not the full time position, she got a lot of freelance work out of it. My first resume was in the form of the famous Playboy interview page with three pictures of me. I also did a package of baseball cards. With me photographed in all nine positions and my resume on the back. Even made up wax packs to put them in. Got a lot of interviews. steveinthecity, bounty_coder, PopKulture and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 By the way we went up to get take out at our favorite Japanese restaurant last night (want these places around when we can dine out again) which is on Green Street west of PCC. As we went home we passed PCC and saw many signs saying there was no flea market this weekend! Too bad; great weather this weekend too. I don't go too often but every now and then the mood strikes and I head over for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't go too often but every now and then the mood strikes and I head over for fun. Yeah, suks...Only the second month of probably a few more no show. I know I would have gone if for no other reason, just to see my junkin buddies. I rarely find many comics there anymore but every once in a while something else cool turns up. Funny thing is that with this going on there are also no garage sales, estate sales or auctions either. The dealers probably wouldn't have much new any way but still...
