These probably belong here, not General where they'll most likely be overlooked.

 

Overabundance of riches this week!

 

Four from ciorac for the "element collection" -- thanks for a nice deal on these "Pat K collection" books.

 

Space Action 2 Aug-52 Ace, Silicon Monsters from Galaxy X. Classic cover and a very odd space travel story that seems to mix up silicon and silica in the big resolution.

Space Adventures 7 Jul-53 Giordano cover. Sort of an accident but a terrific gold story and a strange sex-change story.

Strange Adventures 17 Feb-52. I've wanted this one for a long time -- a Captain Comet story about "Synthetic Men" with calcium nitrate, calcium carbonate, oxygen and nitrogen in the resolution! Then a backup story that I didn't even know about with a guy wandering around someone's (well-lighted) brain looking for chunks of radium and quenching them with lead sulfate.

Strange Worlds 8 Aug-52, Avon. I got it for The Metal Murderer cover that turns out to only have a "platinum dollar" reference in it, but that's the weakest story in the book! Artwork by Lazarus, Kinstler, Kubert and Hollingsworth!

And one more already posted in General.

 

From an ebay seller that I hadn't tried before, Riot 1 Apr-54, Atlas. A bit rough but under a Burgos cover are Mad-style stories by Heath, Post, Hartley, Maneely and Colan!

I have a Riot #3 coming soon!

"Strange Sex Change Stories"

 

Sounds like a Carmine Infantino/Jeff Jones title.
