Didn’t your dang dog wake you to go out??? 

[catrick339]

G'morning! Who's enthused for a few Early Birds today? Operators are Standing By!

Space Adventures 25
Two five page Steve Ditko stories in this issue.

Very solid copy, the worst of it is a long dogear upper RH FC, see the scan. Otherwise  few color breaks along the spine,
touch of general wear. Flat, tight, clean, glossy, white pages. I particularly enjoy the date stamp on Dino's backside,  

Asking $75

HAW! Crossing posts!  Enjoy your Early Birds buddy!

[catrick339]

Here's an interesting item. 

A Story Of Our Gang  
Children's book from 1929. Quite nice shape with minor wear FC along the spine, and an ink dedication on page one, 
"To Ann From Gean"  Color photos throughout, along with a handful of B & W, twenty story pages, heavy cardboard covers,
and interior is printed on cardstock paper. BC even nicer than FC, with a different color photo. Interior pages are crisp, just 
a bit offwhite. 

No idea on this one, so let's try it at $35

Young Brides V1 #3

Small tears at staples and RH edge of FC, wear along spine BC. Cover still well attached, but the CF is detached. 
General wear. Offwhite - white pages.

Asking $20 SOLD!

Here's one I've never had before. 

My Friend Irma 3  (#1)
Dan DeCarlo art!

General wear, with soiling along spine BC, leads me to believe someone ironed out a spine roll. Chipping along RH edge FC
supports that conclusion. General light soiling  FC and BC.
Ahh, but on the plus side, there's a bit of gloss left,  cover and CF are tight, with white pages. Certainly a step or two above a 
Rough Reader, and how often have you seen a copy?

Asking $150,  FIRM. 

[catrick339]

Master Comics 113
Minor general wear on a tight copy, tiny tear lower edge FC, couple more lower RH BC. There are  a couple 
light tan  spots lower RH BC to boot. Bit of light foxing RH edge FC. Good gloss, white pages. 
C M Jr., Nyoka,  Tom Mix,  some humor strips. 

Grab a solid copy for $50

[catrick339]

That's it, gang! 

Back this evening with another nice stack.

Dynamic Comics 17

Dogear lower RH FC, half inch split upper spine, bit of gebneral wear, otherwise flat and clean, tight spine and CF, white pages.

Funny Stuff 5
Sheldon Mayer

Lower RH corner has gotten damp, and there's a bit of paper loss around the edge of the corner, 
BC matches the loss perfectly. First interior page both front and back has light water stain, doesn't touch the art.
Otherwise  a very nice solid copy, flat, tight, white pages

Asking $20

Pulp Time!

Argosy V171 #4
Sept 25, 1925
First chapter of The Red Hawk by Edgar Rice Burroughs, later part of the Moon Maid series. 
I ***think*** it was included in the Ace volumes back in the 1960's. 

Chips and pieces out of  RH edge FC, a couple more out upper and lower LH FC. Spine strip is nice, tiny bit of chipping upper end.
Here's the heartbreaker: about half of the back cover is missing, see the second scan. Interior is nice, offwhite pages

Asking $75  SOLD!

Shocking Mystery 58
L B Cole cover

but a glossy tight copy otherwise, with white pages. Displays very nicely in a new mylar,  

Asking $75  SOLD!

Fantastic Four 41
Right in the middle of the classic Lee/Kirby run

Solid reader, displays nicely, but there is a light water stain along a good piece of the spine, and the lower staple is rusty.
Still flat and tight, good gloss, white pages.I strongly suspect the RH edge of the FC has been trimmed, it's just too damned nice,  

Asking $25

1943 Timely, half page ad for Captain America, half page ad for Young Allies.

Back cover is nice, interior is nice  except for a light stain lower corner  page 1.
Ahh, but that front cover. Horizontal stain lower LH FC starting on Wolfie's foot and over to Ziggy's foot,
with some tape-pull-type damage. Couple chips out along spine, one more small tape pull below the K in Komics.
Flat and tight enough, some gloss left, offwhite pages.

Wartime Timely for under a hundred bucks? SAY IT AIN'T SO!

Asking $65
