Always wanted a copy of this book. Great cover and underrated interiors. Very happy to finally have one. Crime with a little smidgeon of horror thrown in. The strangler story is fantastic.

Congrats, I was bidding on this one but dropped out around $900 since I already have a 7.5.

It’s definitely one of Cole’s best crime covers!

Thank you, and thank you for dropping out when you did ?. I just wish the under bidder had followed suit. They cost me an extra couple of hundred over what I was hoping to pay, but I’m still very happy with it...

Never knew this was a first issue! Got this years ago on the cheap. I'll have to dig it out again and read it. Nice to hear it's getting some interest. (thumbsu

That’s a beauty. The more I see if this book the more I like it.

Someone had a sales thread awhile back with this one and no takers but it is a cool cover 

If it was a thread of all Blackhawks,I took it,but never got it.Seller disappeared. :frown:

Come on Jimmers, bring on "Quills from the Crypt". Love to see some more of your stuff. Love to hear some stories of how and where you picked them up. Should be fun. 

I'm practicing with the camera,and getting used to getting the images from there to here.I wish the scanner still worked!I've pulled out a bunch of books,a few with you in mind.Every comic will have a story,if I can remember.

Be forewarned,many,most of the books will definitely be 'readers' :D The Classics is one of the better ones. :foryou:

No worries, as I know you appreciate beater copies. I do too! Though it's weird, I really prefer clean coverless to absolute beaters for a given book (and then I go looking for one with a decent cover.) But I am no grade snob. Looking forward to your books and stories! :)

No, no, no. You need to say it like this:

"Beware the barbs of my beaters, they shall stick with you!" :bigsmile:
