Most of what I know is from his work for Harvey Comics. He did the cover to the classic Witches Tales 25, the severed head bell ringer cover. I found this book searching his name, looks interesting!

The Ghoul looks like a rotted version of the Crypt Keeper to me.

Nostrand started out very heavily influenced by/swiping from Jack Davis.

I've always wanted a copy of this book, and when the right copy at the right price comes along...

This Jack Davis precode war cover that is one of the greatest war covers to come out of the precode era. Congrats on getting a must have!

So happy to knock this one off the list after spending most of the year looking for one. :headbang:  An insane cover, love everything about it.

Weird Chills is such a great name for a horror title, but the summer of '54 was not a good time to debut a horror title. Wish it could have started a year earlier... ah well.

Great pickup! Need that one to complete the trio!

Great grab. All 3 are classics!  PCH at it's finest.

It’s a nice little run to put together without too much trouble. I remember having all three at one point and then selling off the number one. It didn’t feel right having issues two and three only, so I was able to pick up another copy of issue one here on the boards. Now the trilogy is back together and it’s hats on the ice. 🙂

Congrats. Love that date stamp as well.
