  1. Past hour
  2. Great books! The Croydons have aren't so polished but have their own special look. My fave is the Scandals at a Nudist Colony. I knew the Immoral Models was a cut above (as far as artistry), looked it up and it's Lou Marchetti. The redhead is great, but the schmoe in the background isn't nearly as well done. A couple of new scanning digests that fell in a box of beater paperbacks. These late crime digests aren't my usual waters, but I thought I'd explore. The graphics are very cool on this. I've no idea who the artist is Trapped Detective Story Magazine v05n03 (1961-02.Headline) cover I like the graphics on this one, too Saturn Web Detective Story Magazine v03n05 (1961-05.Candar) cover
  3. Vault 12 would be a good one, that is in the sale so far and CGC graded and the super rare WS 21 Canadian Edition signed by Ray Bradbury and CGC graded
  4. Blunted corners, chipping along the outer edge along with color breaking vertical creases, chipping on upper edge by spine, minor to moderate color rub in the black areas of the front cover, crease at lower left corner of rear cover, creasing/denting along outer edge of rear cover, light spine stress/stress lines on rear cover, moderate foxing on rear cover. If the staining/discoloration on the rear cover is indeed foxing, it cannot be removed, foxing is biological in nature and is part of the paper itself, as far as the chipping, I do not know how CGC will look at that, I am unsure as to weather chipping was still an issue in the 70's as it was for Marvel in the 60's, if they determine it is bindery related the book will not take as much of a hit, if it is not bindery... Foxing/Staining/Discoloration FN/VF 7.0 - Minor foxing. FN 6.0 - minor staining, soiling, discoloration, and/or foxing. VG/FN 5.0 - minor to moderate staining, discoloration, and/or foxing. VG 4.0 - Some discoloration, fading, foxing, and even minor soiling is allowed. GD/VG 3.0 - Discoloration, fading, foxing, and even minor to moderate soiling is allowed. The first mention of pieces missing is in... VG 4.0 - As much as a 1/4" triangle can be missing out of the corner or edge; a missing 1/8" square is also acceptable. GD/VG 3.0 - A triangle from 1/4" to 1/2" can be missing out of the corner or edge; a missing 1/8" to 1/4" square is also acceptable. GD 2.0 - The largest piece allowed missing from the front or back cover is usually a 1/2" triangle or a 1/4" square, As the book sits right now, as is, IMO...VG/FN 5.0 5.0 VERY GOOD/FINE (VG/FN): Back to Top An above-average but well used comic book. An accumulation of bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor to moderate cover wear apparent, with minor to moderate creases and/or dimples. Inks have moderate to low reflectivity. Blunted corners are increasingly common, as is minor to moderate staining, discoloration, and/or foxing. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. A minor to moderate spine roll is allowed. A spine split of up to 1/2" may be present. Staples may show minor discoloration. Minor staple tears and minor stress lines may also be present, as well as minor rust migration. Paper is tan to brown with no signs of brittleness. Centerfold may be loose. Minor interior tears may also be present.
