Wow Brent, looks like you've been busy. Are any of those going on your site since a couple don't meet your VF criteria. Great books BTW.

Nice books Brent

Thanks Fay! I haven't decided yet. I will probably list some of the lesser grade books on my site. None of them are VF although a lot of them have VF appeal. These came out of a 1950s DC collection recently purchased.

 

Funny too, because many of the Actions, Adventures, Batmans and Detectives in the collection from that time period were VF or better. The Army at Wars were sub par by comparison, only averaging FN or so.

(Most likely because the war books were read and re-read because that's what we do with books we enjoy, right?)

 

Great run by the way! There's a book or two that I need out of those, so if you'll be selling, perhaps I'll PM you my list.

I need to stop visiting this thread. It continues to make me ill.

I haven't read them yet. Any idea which one(s) I should read first?

 

I can't decide which cover I like best the #59 or #60.

For me, it's the 60, hands down.

Jeff, I hate to be sarcastic but really it's only because I care and I think you need to see a doctor about that upset stomach of yours.

The 57 is a close third.

[adamstrange]

I wonder what lucky SOB has the original for this?

 

 

Not Russ Heath. He got paid a pittance for it considering how often it was used -- one of the most widely published pieces of comic art ever. I think he said that he got paid either 50 or 100 bucks for drawing it.

[thirdgreenham]

Oh, I love that #57 as well....suspenseful!!!!

But so true!!!

[BEAUMONTS]

Evidently there were some other companies publishing war books in the 50s besides DC.

 

Outstanding

Finally getting a little run put together.
