This was a great thread that I was hoping would come along!  Love these covers and trying to put together a nice run.  This almost completes it!

The handful I bought are based on a whim, pjlmk if me grabbing 94 or 108 e.g. was taking a book you need.

Oh, I know….I just want it for the novelty of adding one, and it happens to be a book I loved when I plucked it off the racks. Kubert killed it on that cover. … #93 had to be one of the hardest books I ever parted with, cheap as it is to replace is besides the point. Love me some creature commandos

I have tried real hard to keep the thread updated with sales, so anything not marked SOLD!!! should still be available.
I'm 99.99% sure these are yours.
I am out of pocket right now, but will verify for certain when I return home.

Thanks!
