Here's my # 2 which I have posted elsewhere before -

The Big Fake by Murray Forbes Pyramid No. 97 1953 $25 Classic Marilyn Monroe cover art, probably by George Gross A nice copy but "William Weiland" stamped his name around the page edges and on the first page. Does not affect the great art at all.

The Creepers by John Creasey Avon No. 563 1954 $15 "Creepy" Al Rossi GGA cover art on this pretty little Avon Square, tight and glossy with just a little wear to the corners.

Hit the purge button, dude. If your collection is so big that you gotta put some of it in storage, I would suggest you consider down-sizing.

Favorite STAR SPANGLED. No comics were added to the PARK AVENUE COLLECTION after 1954...everyone is a newsstand issue. ..

An interesting angle on secretarial pursuits. Was just thinking of my short stint as a legal secretary in Athens, GA, the other day when a pal shared some typewriter rhythms. A friend and I were the only men (boys, lol) in the secretarial pool which is the only aspect of that job I remember with any fondness. Talk about *evil,* I've never been around another occupation so corrupt, and that's saying something. No offense to our fine lawyers here I'd welcome any more secretary covers...

The grade on the Captain Marvel Adventures is apparent, meaning restored? It's old, but not the most difficult issue in the run to find. I wouldn't buy a restored copy. Which one do you want? I don't see any of these as a strong option for that kind of money. Hulk is going to peak and crash with the next Captain America movie because of Red Hulk. Gambit is a known quantity. Marvel Premiere 1 is a nice book, but do you want to spend that much for one?

The Damon Runyon Story by Ed Weiner Popular Library No. 220 1950 $20 Literally flaming hot Earle K. Bergey Good Girl cover art on this one Fine Plus Square and tight with nice color. Has a spine crack in the middle that doesn't detract much at all

Let's get the ball rolling. Take

Twice is nice.

Eastern Shame Girl Avon No. 127 1947 $15 Nice bargain copy of one of the great early Avons with the classic George Mayers cover art. The last of the Avon "Picture Frame" covers Worn at the head of the spine, some light creasing and a couple of small color flecks.

I sometimes forget I have this beauty. You are totally right - it is a good idea to stop sometimes and smell the roses.

Turn of the Table by Jonathan Stagge Popular Library No. 267 August 1950 $25 Great Belarski GGA cover art on this quasi-sci-fi "Vampire" murder tale. Tough to grade - pages are a bit warped but covers are pretty nice with some light creasing. Great colors.

I do feel like At least some Hughes books have started to rise in the past couple of months. Not everything, for sure, but I see upward movement on the “big” Hughes books, like Catwoman 51 and 74, Harley Quinn 1, Teen Titans 75, Zatanna 15 and 16, etc. I also think “tough” books in CGC 9.8 are climbing - Legionnaires 16 DCU variant, Sable 19, Chassis 1, Stargrazers 1, etc. I tried looking up the "DIRTY PAIR" Hughes/Stevens/PlanetComics homage cover #1, and bupkiss in rise... If it is a flash in the pan, isn't it usually all boats and really quick? I might be optimistic, but at current prices I wouldn't be able to "replace" so will still probably hold, but "who knows!?!"

Home Is The Hangman by Richard Sale Popular Library No. 205 1949 $25 Gorgeous Belarski cover art on this one Fine/Fine Plus Front cover is nice - has some wear on the back. An attractive copy overall

idk if that is a good thing or a bad thing

You might want to rephrase that.

Yes same here. It is pretty close to a "pre-Robin" cover and Batman depiction
