6 posts in this topic

Terms, no list PPL, return for any reason within 10 days of receipt, shipping $6 domestic, $10 Canada.  Payment by PayPal or mailed certified check.  Offers welcome.

 

Gangsters Can't Win #4, August-September 1948. 

Grades about a G-VG with a spine roll but nothing missing and all attached.  White-off/white pages and moderate cover reflectivity.  
 
Plenty of violence in 48 pages, with cars, machine guns, knives, pistols, a guy getting thrown off a building, and acid throwing as weapons. Only selling because I have two copies.  $55.00.
 
Underworld True Crime Stories #3, June-July, 1948.  
This issue has perhaps the sickest, most violent story in all of pre-code crime  comics.  If you like axes buried into the heads of men and children, with plenty of blood, this is your meat.
 
Condition wise a G, with detached cover, upper 3" SS, and O/W pages.  Small P/O of upper and lower right FC corners, and lower left corner.  $25.00.
