Inaflash Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I bought this book a week ago and it came in today. The book was housed in an old CGC case that had seen better days so as would be expected of me, I cracked it out. I own another Cosmic Aeroplane book, so I am familiar with how nice they can be, but I was truly surprised by the color and gloss on this copy once it was out of the slab.

CrocHntr Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I love these weird Space Western books, and found a decent copy of #40. Spurs Jackson, first cross-dresser in space? Now to figure out which bathroom he's supposed to use... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now to figure out which bathroom he's supposed to use... That's bizarre. It looks like the artist swiped a drawing of a woman on a horse and then superimposed a man's head on it. It even looks like the man has breasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBedrock Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Lovely stuff. I love that you crack them out but for resub purposes? It is hard to post anything about CGC cases right now without folks finding all kinds of hidden meaning in every word. Let's just say that for the time being I am having a lot of fun cracking books out of every kind of holder; new, old, voldemort, all of them.
