Mods nuked my last thread because I forgot to close out my old one.  So here's an all new one, with new books!

Here's the rules:

1. Paypal due within 24hrs unless we discuss otherwise prior to taking the book.  I'm open to discussing giving you extra time to pay, just need a heads up. 

2. Prices include shipping to continental US

3. No refunds on slabs unless damaged in transit, refunds on raw books allowed for things I failed to mention like color touch, missing page, popped staple, etc

4. First take it in the thread trumps PM discussions

Here we go!

Journey Into Fear #14 - 3.0 - $250     $200

This was slabbed by the other guys and is still in the inner casing.  Here's the grader's notes:

spine stress breaks color, 3/4" spine split bottom with 3/4" tear front cover, tears at staples
creases to cover some long front cover, breaks color front cover, some through book top left
tears up to 3/4" to cover edges, thin 1/2" chip bottom left back cover

Crime Exposed #5 - 4.0-5.0

This is a really tough book to find and it contains some of John Romita Sr's earliest professional published work.

I originally had this listed as his FIRST professional work. I have since been corrected!

$125. SOLD

Not looking to thread carp here... but that book does not contain Romita's first published work.  Setting aside the fact that Romita ghosted for Zarkarin as far back as 1949, he was listed on a couple Timely books published in 1951, all before August 1951 (the cover date here).  All True Crime #44 (Ace Renard, King of the Bookies" with art by John Romita, Sr. and Les Zakarin) Cover Date May 1951, and Two Gun Western #8 (Doc Holiday: The Killer who searched for death Pencils John Romita) cover date June 1951.

Shoot, you're right. When I originally researched Romita a while ago GCD had this listed as his earliest credited work. There seems to be 6 more books ahead of it in line now.

 

Happy to cancel the sale to the buyer. No money has changed hands yet
