Vault of Horror #16 - $50 - SOLD

Oh, if comics could talk I'm sure some would have a great story to tell. From what I can tell, some lovely lady was trying on a few shades of lipstick (see back cover), realized she had been puckering up to a horror mag, and took appropriate action (see 3rd picture). It is a complete copy but obviously qualified due to the failed cosmetic application and subsequent fit of rage.

This one looks pretty nice in a mylar but has an almost half-book long tear on the front cover near the spine.
