Hello, 

I don't sell books very often, but I have an opportunity to get a grail and I've decided to go after it.  I've had many of these books for over a decade. 

I'm not a pro grader so please review photos and I'll be happy to answer questions or provide more photos. 

I don't have GPA so I largely relied on ebay sold prices. If you see something that is way off base shoot me a PM. 

Rules: 

Offers are welcome

No PL and no HOS please. 

Payment: paypal, check, or MO please.  

Shipping: USPS $15 US / $25 Canada. 

I'll have one bigish lot that will be $20 US and $30 Canada. 

Returns: within 7 days - I'll do my best to list major defects or resto, but if I miss anything please let me know and we'll work it out.  

Reference: below is my kudos thread. Most of my transaction have been as a buyer. 

Sales thread ends midnight EST Monday and all books will be shipped Tuesday. 

Still available: 

Human Torch - sold

CA lot - sold

Swamp Thing lot - $80 (shipped price for this one)

Human Torch 21 -Sold via PM 

I've had this one for a long time. It was my first GA  and a classic Schomburg cover. 

Its a hard book to price so $550 is kind of a shot in the dark. No ebay sales. 

There is a missing chunk from the upper left hand corner and a stain on and around the H in "human torch". 

The color is really great on this guy. There is a lose piece of plastic rolling around the case. I bought it slabbed with that.

Shocking Mystery Cases 59  sold

3.0 Slight C-1

LB Cole 

Great date stamp and a really nice presenting book. The CT is unfortunate and hard to detect. 

Really great and affordable example of Cole doing what he does best.

Strange Tales of the Unusual #1 - sold

Grade - 1.8 Good reader, great stories, front cover isn't to bad, but the BC is a mess. 

I spent many years collecting the entire STOU run from Atlas. Its obscure and not heavily collected, but I loved that era of comics. This is my under copy.

Last book today: 

ASM 101  sold

 

Grade: 3.5 

This would be a higher grade as well, but the top staple is popped which is really disappointing. There is also a long color breaking crease on the FC. Great color on this one.
