Argosy V171 #4 is  SOLD!

Thanks Eddy707!

Super Magician V3 #9

Oddball flaw on this copy, a tiny corner off most upper RH corners inside. You can baaaarely see the missing
corner upper RH  FC, they get a little larger for the next several leaves, and then just quit before the end of the book.
The last several pages and the BC are intact. I'm guessing a production flaw, but your mileage may vary. 
As for the rest of the book, it's flat, tight, clean, bit of gloss left, white pages. A sharp copy...with a bunch of tiny corners missing,  

Asking $125

All righty!

On The Spot 
Fall 1948, Fawcett one shot. 

Flat and clean enough, but lower staple is pulled, upper staple hanging on by a thread, small tear and chip upper spine. 
Both staples rusty, lower one has a touch of migration. Some general wear.  Quite a list!  And in spite of it all it displays very well,
and the interior is nice, tight with cream - offwhite pages.

Romantic Marriage 23
Matt Baker!

Kinda rough, with water stain RH edge, tape along the entire spine, and a couple small pieces out near the spine LH FC,
small corner off lower RH FC. But all the mayhem is on the perimeter, the main cover art is still a gorgeous Mat  Baker cover.
Interior is tight with white pages, but there are bits of foxing here and there, especially page 1, but nearly all of the artwork is clean and clear. Upper staple rusty with a bit of migration. 
Listen up, it's a rough reader that displays quite nicely. Where else you gonna find a Matt Baker romance for under a hundred bucks?

Asking $50  SOLD!

Pulp Time!

Amazing Stories V1 #12, March 1927
Part 2 of The Land That Time Forgot by Edgar Rice Burroughs

Front cover displays nicely, back cover has some issues. Jagged 1 x 3 hole near LH edge, tape repairs, plenty of 
chipping along upper edge, light water stains across most of the cover. Last page has some staining and  couple small holes, 
in one of the letters to the editor. 
Balance of the issue is solid,  cream to tan supple pages. 
Juuust too wide to fit on my scanner, the RH edge is slightly cropped in the image,  but it's sharp and straight in hand. 
Also included,  A. Merritt story,  H G Wells reprint

Asking $50  SOLD!
