Golden Fleece V2 #1, Jan 1939

I've been told this is a tough title to run down, although I saw a fair number of them at Pulpfest...if you had a lot of money in your pocket,  

This is a solid copy, with a killer cover, but small corner off lower LH FC, small piece off lower spine strip. Light water long lower half inch of the whole book. Still flat, tight, square, cream - offwhite pages

Asking $60  SOLD!

Howdy Robot,  I wont take your

While we're waiting for a fresh flag from Robot (or a staunch denial, )
Here's the last pulp for the thread.

Doc Savage  V 30 #5, Winter 1949
Third to last Doc pulp story, #179 out of 181 printed in the pulps. Bookery guide says "scarce".
I know I've never seen one before. 

Gorgeous copy, with minor general wear, flat, tight, clean, bit of gloss, cream - offwhite pages. 
Small corner off upper RH BC, couple small stains BC. Not quite gemmy, but an attractive copy nonetheless. 

Asking $150, FIRM

I'll knock off five bucks for my clumsiness, and throw away that effin mylite bag before I ship  

[catrick339]

@ThePreacher, you have first right of refusal if Robot turns it down. 

And that, Gang, is the end of the pulps for this thread. Tonight it's COMICS COMICS COMICS, 
and tomorrow it's COMICS COMICS, with a huge SA  key to top everything off.

Done and done.

Thanks Robot, and my apologies.

Oof, hate that about pulps. The covers are so fragile that the slightest error can give them a chip or split. I'm afraid to even take them out sometimes -- I've got a crazed toddler, a 13-year-old and a jumpy cat with paws of fury.
