In the spirit of oddballs, here's a cool book that is certifiably unreadable without the included 3-D glasses.  I didn't know the blue label required the insert be present (3-D glasses), so I was lucky it was there when slabbed.  But unfortunately, I never read the book because I didn't want to remove the insert or open its plastic packaging.

These mid-1940s Punch Comics had some great horror covers. Leaving aside the superhero-with-horror-elements comic covers (Wonderworld #7, Zip #22, etc etc), is there a title with straight horror covers earlier than this one?

Honestly it really depends what one can get away with from what I’ve seen, and even comics that had a code or were at least in the post-code era were arguably just as effective.

Anyway, this cover for Funny Pages #38 (June, 1940) stuck out to me:
