Shows didn't go as planned, so doing a small virtual show here! GGA, War, Archie, LB Cole, and more!!! Uncommon items . . . 8 8

[Qua-Brot]

Been a while since I did a comic sale on the boards, but have a few nice books and the last 2 local shows I did here underperformed (but the bills didn't go away!). So I am back!

Rules:

No Probies, HOSers or any bad people.

Payment by PayPal or Venmo up to $999, above that I prefer check (have references who have bought from me here on the boards with check and were happy, or at least bought from me again . . .). Time payments allowed but 30% down non-refundable, time frame to be negotiated.

Shipping $5 USPS First Class up to 3 raw books, above that switches to Priority and whatever the price is plus ~$2 (materials cost, rounded up). Over $1,000 free shipping. All applies CONUS, outside CONUS we can discuss shipping.

Oh yeah!! First  in the thread trumps all other deals and negotiations - if we agree to a price in DM take it in the thread before someone else does!

I encourage offers, especially on multiple books, but I don't guarantee I'll accept offers. Some books I have more leeway than others.

Returns not accepted on Graded books, Returns for raw books only if I missed something significant (missing pages, coupon cut, etc).

Enjoy!

First book is raw, low grade, missing centerwrap, but still a great book (since almost the entire value is the cover!):

Blue Bolt V9#5 famous Fish in the Face cover! Would be a 2.0 with the centerwrap, missing centerwrap, fun book! Asking $125

[Qua-Brot]

Let stick with Blue Bolt, but a very different Blue Bolt!

Blue Bolt 119, CGC 4.0 with Off White pages. LB Cole classic, last issue, solid copy! Asking $1,000

[Qua-Brot]

I'll go back and forth between raw and graded books for a bit. 

First Kiss 1, Charlton 1957 Romance. Solid mid-grade (5.0-5.5) with some minor tics along the spine, stressing on cover with everything attached and supple. Asking $75 SOLD!!!!

Startling Comics 4, CGC 4.0 Cream to Off-White pages. Bright color and looks great! Asking $900

[Qua-Brot]

My Girl Pearl 8, lower grade but complete. Stan Goldberg cover and art. Great early Marvel book. Asking $35

[Galen130]

[Qua-Brot]

Rare Atlas GGA - Sherry the Showgirl 1, CGC 3.0 (which is shockingly about average for this book), with Off-White pages. Only 10 on the census, classic Dan DeCarlo cover and art. Must have for the Atlas/Marvel/GGA collector! Asking $900

[Qua-Brot]

Lover's Lane 35, classic bully/hair-pulling cover! Lower grade with coupon cut from back cover. Asking $125 SOLD!!!!

Edited May 23, 2023 by Qua-Brot

[Qua-Brot]

With that theme, here is another classic cover:

Summer Love 48, CGC 7.5 White pages. 2nd highest graded (ok, out of 3 graded, but sounds good!). Hair Pulling cover, swingers, just all around cringey late 60s vibe! Asking $375 SOLD!!!!

Edited May 22, 2023 by Qua-Brot

[Qua-Brot]

Jonny Quest 1, missing most of back cover, otherwise complete. Will fit in with the next listing very nicely. Asking $95

[Qua-Brot]

Why, you ask, did the previous listing reference this listing? Because it would be the perfect reader for this slabbed book:

Jonny Quest 1, CGC 6.5, Off-White to White pages. Brilliant cover colors, beautiful book. Hard to find book in a hard to find higher grade. Asking $750  SOLD!!!!

Edited May 23, 2023 by Qua-Brot

Sticking with obscure 60s characters:

Lobo 2, 3.0 range, staining on cover, spine roll and rips (not split), complete, centerwrap detached top staple. 2nd appearance of 1st Black superhero. Asking $160

[Qua-Brot]

Switch it up a bit

Strange Tales Annual 1, CGC 4.0 Off-White to White pages. I thought this was going to come back higher, but supposed staining on back cover brought it (way) down. Asking $250   SOLD!!!

Edited May 22, 2023 by Qua-Brot

Forgot this one - should have been after the other Charlton love book above:

For Lover's Only 73, 4.0. Classic Spanking cover. Story is about what you'd expect for this cover/type of mag. Asking $25   SOLD!!!

Edited May 23, 2023 by Qua-Brot

Let's switch to DC for a few listings . . . 

All Star Western 11, CGC 7.0 White pages. Also think this is a higher grade but the "spine roll" that is a manufacturers defect (i.e. misaligned, not spine roll) is marked as spine roll and thus hath spoken CGC . . . . First Jonah Hex, asking $500

[Qua-Brot]

Date with Judy 13, solid 7.0, maybe higher with a press to get the non-color breaking stress out near spine? Great roll in the hay cover. Asking $175

[Qua-Brot]

Batman 66, CGC 1.8 with Off-White Pages. 2nd only to low grade due to coupon cut is piece out of back cover, which is the case here. And detached cover. But presents like a much higher book and the cover is what it's all about. Joker "" cover (so I've been told). Asking $850

Take please 

[Qua-Brot]

I'll do these 2 together since same type and same themes on cover:

Binky 12, Buzzy 17. both about 4.5, present better but have some technical defects. Both have great Ice Skating GGA covers. Asking $100 for pair.
