Point Five Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I just got in a Fight Comics from Ted's new collection. Looked great at first glance, but there's a hit of color touch on the spine, not excessively hard to spot, and edge trimming. Hate to say this, as I really like Superworld!, but check your books carefully when they roll in. I will sadly have to return this one. Yikes! Thanks for the tip. If the OO of that collection did something to one book, I guess it's likely he did something to others. I bought three books, but haven't received them yet. Anytime. Looking at other books on the site, I don't see any obvious red flags of resto. It seems like kind of a hodgepodge of conditions and most likely not original owner... my guess is the vast majority will be fine, but worth a careful look sooner than later.

burntboy Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Another one that I dearly love...a small bit of professional color touch somewhere. It's funny - My eye was naturally drawn to the two female nudes all these years and I just noticed for the fist time that the two dudes closest to the bottom have badly singed wings. The innocent drawn to the flames of Evil... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Thanks bud, no worries. I've had a good 'no returns' run for quite a while. You takes your chances. That's a killer Mask #1, Harry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimjum12 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) This one is not as earth shattering as many, but still cool none the less. How often do you see Powerhouse Pepper in a conga line ? ....... and the Wolverton art inside is top notch...... It wouldn't surprise me if R Crumb read Wolverton when he was a lad. GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) Edited January 24, 2016 by jimjum12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mijael.Levy Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Just got this from an US seller , printed in the US 1953 and then distributed in Mexico , those two copies remained in the US so they are in great shape thanks to the bag and board culture and because of the fact that they probably remained in a basement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.A.tor Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 a friend of mine picked up this little mid grade original owner run of detectives a few years ago, and was gracious enough to sell them to me (only missing the 45 as fate would have it).... wonderful little addition to my collection (NFS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
