All reet! Last item for the evening. 

Operator 5 V12 #4, Nov/Dec 1939
Ooh, Giant  Mole Tank!

This is the last issue of this title. Chipping RH edge both FC and BC, chip out upper spine strip. 
With that being said, book is flat and tight, with a bit of gloss, and cream - offwhite pages. Small tear lower edge FC. Displays well. 

Asking $80 for this one, pretty firm.

Howdy Gang! 

Today's Brunch edition is one item or seven, YOU make the choice!

Complete set of the 1977 Tempo DC reprint paperbacks...with the slipcase. I've had a fair number of the pb's over the years, this is the only slipcase I've ever seen. 

Paperbacks are all sharp, the slipcase has some shelfwear and rubbing. 

Here's the list:

Batman 14530
Wonder Woman 14531
Superman 14532
Justice League of America 14533
The World's Finest 14534
Superboy and The Legion of Superheroes 14535
...and of course the slipcase.

The JLA volume is the worst of the bunch, with a tiny dogear FC and another BC, the rest are sharp with a whiff of storage wear. Spines are all sharp, the whole set looks unread to me.

$10 a volume, a reasonable price I'm thinking,  plus $15 for the slipcase adds up to $75

Asking $75 for the whole enchilada.  SOLD per PM!
No, I WON'T split them up,

This honkin' big pile of pulps keeps staring at me, and muttering under its breath, accusing me of ignoring it in favor of funnybooks.

Seriously folks, listing ten pulps, if you have no interest tune in this evening for a full comic book session.
