Jasonmorris1000000 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 There’s no way he’ll get that much. I tried selling this one not too long ago on eBay as a bid. It’s a cracked open 4.5 unrestored. I put the starting bid at $800 and no one bid on it. I was kind of glad because I love this issue and I’ve decided to keep it. fifties, Raze, KirbyJack and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifties Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Speaking of borrowing illustrations, here's the cover of Fight Against Crime, March, 1953, and the text story from The Thing #10, September 1953. Different publishers. Jasonmorris1000000 and Raze 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still kick myself for not buying a lower grade copy from Harley at the 2016 NYCC... Jasonmorris1000000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
