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.

Wow, beautiful cover and copy. How thick is the slab exactly?
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…

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.

Which would explain Vinnie's casual handling of the book. I mean, if it's already restored and gets a little more damage, what's a little more restoration between friends?
No biggie, that’s what pressing is for. Seen one Action 1 you seen ‘em all…

I will be there Friday and Saturday and then heading over Sunday to the Chicago Toy Show. I am not much of a toy collector, but have heard that it is a cool convention to check out.
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.

I think the McCauley is going to do surprisingly well. Reefer Girl might just go crazy, too.
Did a boardie happen to win an obscure Bolles this weekend on eBay? I was underbidder and have a proposition if you did... (not the sort of thing you'll see me asking too often ) PM ME
But while I'm here, Bolles
and one of a *lovely* batch of Judge I scanned and bagged tonight:
Love that Halloween issue!

yeh Bob on the Submissions tracking page, click on the Submission link and then click on the Line Item link and it brings you to the Verify Cert page with the grader's notes and the scans
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…

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.

They're briefcases for the office. Top level execs like to demonstrate that they busy themselves at home with only the most important matters and therefore don't carry thick briefcases.
There could be more than four and of course in a multiplicity of colours.
In addition to the briefcases SPP also released binders:
It seems that the Digger, Daddy, Davey and Freddy Flameout binders listed in the above catalogue were available in red, yellow, green and black. Here are some pictures I've managed to find:
SPP also released at least two more Weird-Ohs binders not shown in the above catalogue:
So I count at least six different binders. Each was perhaps available in red, yellow, green, black and perhaps even teal. Plus at least one pencil case:
I'm not sure how many different pencil cases there were or in how many different colours. All I know for sure is that any self-respecting Hawk Weird-Ohs enthusiast needs to have them all!
Cool! Never have owned the binders or pencil cases.

Some of the parts are enclosed beneath the cardboard insert.
Yes. My Mr Gasser is a factory sealed bottom box. I hope he’s in there…

Those LP's are wild cool! I remember seeing one of the "Big Daddy" Roth ones when I was actively accumulating vinyl LP's circa 1970. I have one other "Big Daddy" Roth LP you've not pictured:
I like to relax to the sweet sounds of Rods 'n Ratfinks:
But I don't have the Weird-Ohs or Silly Surfers LP's. I take it that yours are two separate albums. I believe I've seen an LP with the Weird-Ohs on the front of the sleeve and the Silly Surfers on the back.
Yes, 2 separate albums. I photographed both sides..

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…

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.
