Cool, short run romance book. Overstreet lists it as scarce and I have to agree. Been trying to complete this run for years and am just giving up. Hot photo cover.

Spine is worn with a 1" upper spine tear and bumped at bottom. Sone color rubbing at top of cover. Several very small creases.No tears or missing pieces. Book & centerfold bound tightly to covers. 

Was $75.

Now $65.

Sensational Police Cases One Shot Annual 1952 Avon Pubs

Wild and violent crime content. Kubert and Check art. Kintsler cover.

This copy is a mess but it is a copy... No back cover, tears, creases, tape, couple pieces out of cover, you get the general drift. But it is complete otherwise and readable. Took me years to get a decent upgrade. Passing it on the the next bottom feeder...:roflmao:

$25.This one is sold "as is"...

OK, something a little different...

Set of 3 1951 Flash Gordon jigsaw puzzles. Beautiful colors and great images of Flash and Dale.

Two puzzles are complete. The third is missing one piece. Original box is a little faded and has corners split and some of the edges.

$65. for a beautiful display item. 

A great flea market piece but will offer it here first.

Fight Comics #52 Oct 1947 Friction House Pubs

Oh, what a classic cover! Looks a lot like Baker. Rich, green jungle landscape and the look on her face is priceless. One of my favorites from this title! Has some nice Matt Baker inside as well as lotsa GGA.

Missing a coupon from a non story inside page. Appears some kid wanted a pair of D Tracy wrist phones. A real nice copy otherwise. Great rich color so uncommon on these FH books. A couple tiny edge tears and back cover is a little dirty. Nice spine with everything well attached. No creases or pieces missing.Another one I recently paid a lot to upgrade a bit.

$75.
