I think there will be lots more eyes on this in the next few days and a lot of the offerings will get picked up. 

With that said, many folks here will be traveling or otherwise tied up with family obligations the next 3-4 days, so even with steady daily activity there may be a lull compared to what we'd normally see.

I'm thinking to offer up more, but it will almost certainly be after that holiday push, so end of December rolling into January. 'Marathon not a sprint' and all that.

Cool books. I remember reading Tarzan At The Earth's Core as a kid at least 20 times until it fell apart!

spelled "Tarzan" as "arzan". I need a new keyboard!

I had this up in its own little thread, but I closed it and moved it here. Proceeds to Jimbo. (Yes, it was on sale a bit lower when proceeds were going to me, now it’s regular price for Jimbo but I’ve got your shipping.)

Wings #89 GGA bondage classic cover. $400 to Jimbo. IDGAF if you’re on Mars, Tattooine, Apokolips, Zenn-La, Rann, etc.

Help the good man out.

I can't find my post, but somewhere I mentioned "hiding the picture" once the book is sold, I should have said "please put the picture in a spoiler" don't delete the post. The spoiler if you are not sure what I'm talking about is that EYE thingy in the top row of your post . Just click on the picture and hit the eye thingy.

Thank you

Not to be "oh THAT guy" but just a reminder if you have sold a book please wrap it in a spoiler. It really makes it much easier to see what is still available. 

Get well Jimbo!!!!!!!!

And now back to our regularly scheduled rant.

Very nice! A favorite of mine...

I’ve seen this for years and years on the boards and now had to jump on the chance to own a copy. It’s one of those that intrigues every time you look at it. Thanks!
