Let's travel to the PLANET STORIES Universe
Robot Man replied to Hap Hazard's topic in Pulp Magazines
Picked up the two Planet Stories at the LA Paperback show yesterday. Both rather cheap. I have never seen a British copy like this #4. -
Yeah, you are right. Moe’s is in Berkeley. Both great “old school” bookshops. Shops like that are disappearing fast, sadly.
-
So what was your assessment of the show? Sounds like you bought a lot. Good selection? Good prices? Any standouts? Worth a trip across country? Are you as “spine blind” as I am?…

Going to the LA Vintage Paperback show on March 17th
Robot Man replied to Surfing Alien's topic in Pulp Magazines
I saw the Amazing Detective Tales drug cover pulp. Just wasn’t nice enough to warrant $300. For me that day. Also saw a very nice copy of the Marijuana Dell 10 cent book for $250. Terry had some nice pulps but they were at, well, Terry prices… -
I dunno but I was “hooked” when I saw it…
-
Well, technically Berkeley is in San Francisco. Haven’t been up there since Covid though.

A cheap purchase at the LA Paperback show yesterday. I have never seen one of these subscription issues. I rarely buy these but for $3. I thought it was a no brainer.

Post Your FOUR COLOR Comic Covers Here
Robot Man replied to Comicdey's topic in Golden Age Comic Books
I rarely buy many Four Colors but had to grab this for $3. yesterday. A real flood of memories from my childhood watching Disney’s Wonderful World of Color on TV. I believe I might have had this comic as a kid. @Tri-Color Brian -

In addition to the Raging Passions digest, I also picked this up at the Paperback show. Man, the colors just scream out at you. Guy had a whole table of unbagged ‘50’s-‘60’s comics. Grabbed a smile pile. I don’t think anything was over $10. Funny how many books you can grab at a few bucks each that you might not ever seek out or pay up for. -
Yeah, one of my favorite shows of the year. You never know what turns up there. Missed you brother! I also got Lupoff to sign my copy of that book a few years ago. Cool guy. I bet you bought those Humbugs from my friend Kookie. He sets up right next to Kayo Books. He is a local flea market prowler and former comic store owner. He turns up real cool stuff.
-
Kayo is the best dealer at the show. I always hit them first. I always get a stack from them. If you like their show stock, you really should visit their store in Berkeley. Place is packed.

You know what The Beach Boys say about “California Girls”…
-
It was a “crime of opportunity”. I’d never seen it before. PBs and Digests are SO much cheaper than the comics I usually buy. And, although I don’t have the patience to look through endless rows of spines, Digests usually pop out easier when you can find them.
