Beautiful books. Gary had a true love of them. I remember going into his shop back in the day and seeing piles of them. As hard as he tried though, he could never find a copy of Tales of Terror #1. It was the one that eluded him to the end. Here are a couple of my Arlingtons. Larryw7, OtherEric, Raze and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robot Man Posted August 9, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2020 Here is one of several ECs I have from noted collector Jerry Weist.

OtherEric Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 If we're breaking out the noted collection books, my Shock #6 is a Gary Arlington book. But we've already seen both the Shock #6 and the Arlington certificate further up the page, so no need to repeat here. (That, and I'm pushing my quota for showing off the Shock #6 for a while, I think...) So here's the other one I have: The Don & Maggie Thompson copy of Panic #6, with the certificate. Like the Shock #6, I got this one from @EC ed: Raze and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raze Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 On 8/8/2020 at 4:26 PM, fifties said: A very interesting perspective. Of course you recognize that the fodder for their topical humor was reflected from a society that existed 65 years ago, and many aspects of culture were different. A person born after that period couldn't possibly understand the basis for some of the humor unless they were well versed in the events of the period. If EC humor is not your thing, why waste money on those titles? Perhaps better spent on one Vault, Tales, Crime, or Shock, rather than half a dozen Mad or Panic issues. You do bring up a great point about the money and that they are 65 years old. But I still feel like since I collect EC as my focus I should get them when they are cheap, which Ive had luck with. I do buy the other titles and think they are all great! Ive gotten a few TFTC and 1 more on the way. Ill share when I get it. And thanks for your response!

Popular Post Robot Man Posted August 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2020 #23 might be my favorite EC cover. I remember seeing it on that large reprint book as a kid and had to have it. Not much else represents EC horror any better. Here's mine. conan09279, Raze, Larryw7 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s the best horror cover I own. Let’s see the cream of the EC horror cover crop, FanAddicts! Whatcha got?
