Popular Post catrick339 Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Howdy! So, just in time for the holidays, I stumbled into a small cache of reeeally nice CGC books. Selling one here tonight, along with a handful of raw books. More to come as I decide whether to crack them open to read, or send them on their way. DA RULEZ I'll put up a big scan of the FC, note anything else I spot, and as always, if you'd like a scan of the back cover I'll be happy to supply it. Shipping to USA preferred, but if you want something sent to Canada or overseas PM me and we'll work something out. :TAKEIT: rules the roost, but PM's, kibitzing, and general tomfoolery are welcome. $9.50 Priority shipping to the USA for one to four comics, well packed in a padded envelope. $16 boxed Priority for larger quantities. Canada or overseas to be determined. $16 for slabbed books, double boxed, plenty of bubble wrap. CHECK OR MONEY ORDER PREFERRED, I just plain out don't like paypal. If you just GOTTA pay with paypal PM me first and we'll work something out. Returns for any reason on your dime, and for any missed major flaw or bad description on my dime. My Kudos thread: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4287314#Post4287314 Here we go! Wings Comics 62, CCG 9.6, offwhite - white pages. Highest grade in the census, tied with one other 9.6 Matt Baker and Jack Keller art. PM me if you want the raw pix, or more pix. Asking $750, firm. Don't mind tucking this gem back into The Crypt of Comics.

catrick339 Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Crime Reporter #1 St Johns, 1948. First time I've gotten any issue from this title. Small splits upper and lower spine, horizontal tear midspine, goes into the entire book a bit, dogears and general wear. Chips and stain lower edge BC, other minor general mayhem. ALAS, the centerfold is missing. Buy it for the young lovely on the cover, and enjoy (most of) the stories. Yours for $25 SOLD!

catrick339 Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 That's it for this evening, I'll be back tomorrow night with one more small handful. I'm busy sorting through the new arrivals, getting ready for a new thread next week. Heavy on 50's war books there will be a bit of mixed grille too, including a couple more slabs, at least one Matt Baker romance, and some precode horror, so tomorrow night will be it for this thread. I wanted to see if there was any interest in a census highest book hereabouts. comicjack, PeterPark and Readcomix 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to seeing what else you serve up. For possible assimilation.

catrick339 Posted December 10, 2021 Author Share Posted December 10, 2021 Woo woo! On with the raw books!

Star Spangled War Stories 44 Touch of spine/stacking roll, chip out lower spine BC, one tiny spot of water along the spine BC.

Smal tear LH edge BC, bit of spine roll, general wear. Upper staple rusty with a whiff of migration. Tight with white pages.
