Bought this one from a dealer as a 6.0 raw one of my favourite rivet issues and can live with the 5.5  

Wow! Those are great grades for all 3 books! Is this the copy of 13 that world wide sold a while back? I remember it was already marked as sold by the time I saw it. Really great colors on your copy. Definitely one of the tougher books to find. Congrats!

Thanks so much I was very happy with the results Yes the 13 is the copy that Word Wide had listed for about 13 seconds

I'm hanging onto what I have left of mine, but have not added anything new for a couple of years. If memory serves, this was the last.

Managed to add one more to the collection this week.

an upgrade to my Planet 11 is a great Fiction House color comparison...

Fantastic! It's very hard to find copies with rich reds! And such an awesome cover!

Awesome books SuperGrover!  Issue 11 was the first golden age book I ever purchased.  Another great example of Fiction House color variation.

One of the highlights of my Planet run.  I have no idea where it is now.
