Let's travel to the PLANET STORIES Universe
Robot Man replied to Hap Hazard's topic in Pulp Magazines
Smart move, get them while you can. I have always thought them cheap when compared to their comic cousins. These are really starting to take off in my area. -
It would be a Crime not to post your Detective Pulps
Robot Man replied to Robot Man's topic in Pulp Magazines
Nice! I’d buy it too. Over the years, I have bought two collections of covers only. I’m mostly a cover guy so the combination of a very affordable price and dwindling storage space, they are perfect for me. -
CGC graded Pulps - my first experience and results.
Robot Man replied to Hibou's topic in Pulp Magazines
Almost twice as thick as a comic book slab. See Hibou’s photo on the previous page. -

Well my first eagle has landed. My first submission to CGC. I dropped this off at WonderCon on 3/29 and got it today. Quicker than I expected. Came back a little better than I expected. I had it at 7.0 so I guess my grading skills aren’t too bad. This slab is THICK! I will have to add on to the comic room if I keep doing this. Now, I wait for my two “value” submissions… -

I'll pound you to a "Pulp" if you don't show off yours!
Robot Man replied to mr.schomburg's topic in Pulp Magazines
Scored these today in a trade with a local guy. Blinding colors! Don’t have time to go through my FH Jungle and Jumbo comics but these covers seem real familiar. Possible swipes? I have a handful of very high grade Jungle pulps. Due to their traditional low values, now might be a good time to have some of them graded. -
The Chicago Toy Show is one of the best shows of its kind in the US. Or at least it used to be. I haven’t been in maybe 8 years. Lots of amazing eye candy. And I have even found old comics there.

Love that Halloween issue!

Is that a bound volume? Some great overlooked digest covers there. -
The WEIRD TALES Thread: Collecting The Unique Magazine
Robot Man replied to RedFury's topic in Pulp Magazines
Nice! I would have happily kept it even incomplete. It’s all about the cover and one I am very unlikely to obtain anymore.- 370 replies

Robot Man replied to Hibou's topic in Pulp Magazines
Thanks Andy. I got through and was able to see the graders notes but there is no scan. Maybe they haven’t posted it yet? Or maybe I have to pay extra for it? I did check the census page and my copy is not listed yet. I’m a GA collector. One thing I have learned is patience… -
Any of you comic people collect Hot Wheels?
Robot Man replied to Robot Man's topic in Comics General
Hit a couple of unopened F case boxes yesterday. Got a couple Treasure Hunt Mustangs and this beautiful ‘71 El Camino purple Super! A whole lotta fun for a few bucks. -
Should Con dealers beat/match online prices?
Robot Man replied to Knightsofold's topic in Comics General
Without reading all 7 pages, I would just say No, period. A seller has every right no matter what their reasons are, to ask what ever they want. A buyer has every right to say no. Try taking an old comic into a 7-11 and offer to trade it for a carton of milk. Ultimately, that will determine it’s true value… -
Here’s mine. I got it a LONG time ago. I bought it because 1.) It was a Giant, 2.) It was a Crime book, 3.) It had a purty dame on the cover and 4.) It was probably cheap. In the days that if it wasn’t a GA Timely, DC, an EC or a Barks book, it had very little interest. In those days, $50-75. bought a large stack of interesting books. Nobody knew who Matt Baker was. Just dumb luck I guess.

Cool! Never have owned the binders or pencil cases.

Yes. My Mr Gasser is a factory sealed bottom box. I hope he’s in there…

Yes, 2 separate albums. I photographed both sides..

Robot Man replied to Hibou's topic in Pulp Magazines
Just read that my single high value pulp has been shipped. Grade is about what I expected. Can’t wait to see it… The lower value ones are still in grading. Will post when they arrive. Is it possible to see the CGC scan? -
A great Woody cover! I got mine MANY years ago on my honeymoon. Was in San Francisco and just bumped into it in a used book store. Still have it.
-
Love those especially in black. I wonder what they were supposed to be used for? Mine is only a few inches thick. I assume there are 4 in the set. I’ve had mine like forever and haven’t seen another other than these.

Great score Beau! Reminds me of all the “love books” I left in dollar boxes under the tables in the early ‘70’s. I was grabbing as many PCH books from those boxes instead…
