issue 10 and 11 I don't have so fifties can help me out for those, and here's 12 and 13 to finish the run.

I never saw any reason to pick up any Purple Claw's so if you have some please show us.

I don't have 9, 10, or 11 either.  IIRC, they were Purple Claw reprints, and as such not horror fare, so no interest to me in collecting them.

Tales of Horror 8 is a huge book. 

Purple Claw is so unloved but there's some fun stuff going on in there. Purple Claw 2 has a Spider Lady story that's kind of neat. Actually @Jayman is PC 2 on your spider web list?

Yessiree buddy, thanks for the heads up though!

Just got about 4 more to go (that I'm aware of) two being htf $$$ books...

Hello everyone, first time posting here and this is the place for me because I am a pre-code fanatic!
I love Tales of Horror #5 and a few of the stories inside.
I have a few original art pages from the story "Hand of Fate" drawn by Moe Marcus.  I really like his work.

I seem to remember a great splash page as well?Yep,I went and checked,image from CBplus.

I don't get the huge love for ToH 8-used to seem pretty common to me.Wish I kept my undercopies when I upgraded!Also,am I nuts in remembering there is a cover swipe similar,with a purple background?Anyone? @Jayman

I remember it withe the snake facing the opposite direction,with the building on the right side of the page.Maybe I'm mixing it together with the corner image on issue three?It's driving me nuts,and I have no idea where the book I am thinking of is.

Nice run fifties. I can't show mine because it isn't complete. I'm only missing one but it is "the big one". Odds are good my run will stay incomplete...:sorry:

Bob,I've looked and looked for my other complete copy until my heart breaks.If I ever find it again,you can just have it.I think someone 'lost' it on me.
