Dobie Gillis #14 FN- only due to chipping. Bob Oksner killed it this issue. $10

This cover reminded me that Bob Denver (more famous as Gilligan) was on this show. I hadn't thought about this show for years!

 FF#50! Thank you MrLatko!

War Comics #43 (Atlas 1956) in FR/GD. Cover detached, a couple 1" tears (horizontal under D Day on right; vertical into A in War at top). Cover is a Severin/Elder swipe of Two-Fisted Tales #31. Not a common book. $15

[Readcomix]

OK, I really think that's what I have got to offer at this time. I really went Marie Kondo on about 7 short boxes, and there's not much more I could consider parting with without some re-read before release. Worse, some of that would involve doing "stay or go" analysis on larger subsets within the collection (eg - pre-code crime, or PCH, or silver Marvel etc) -- not a quick thing. 

Thanks everyone for the looks and takes; I did keep open a bit longer than planned, in order to add a few more, but I'll close up some time tomorrow so takers can get their books. Thanks all!

[Readcomix]

Lots of good stuff left at good prices, so I think a recap is in order. All prices listed below are the current, discounted price, if a book has been discounted. Some are cut in their original listing; some are elsewhere in the thread as a flash sale; either way its reflected below. Please look at books for pix; some of the books graded VG look nicer but are downgraded for a sole flaw, such as cover detached at 1 staple, fyi. I mention it because it may be a plus or a minus for you depending on how you collect.
