A sales thread for Roshni - A MESSAGE OF THANKS FROM KOLKATA 3 3

[VintageComics]

I'll rob a bank.

 

Well, I thought this was going to be kind of cool to see. Guess it may not happen.

 

 

 

 

[Flex Mentallo]

It still might (the bank in question being mine!)

$150 shipped $120 (domestic) we'll have to figure out shipping elsewhere.

Thanks so much to everyone for posting such wonderful material so generously.

 

We seem to be coming to a natural end, and if nothing else sells rest assured that the funds raised here bring the final target within reach.

 

I may have a final trawl through some boxes over the weekend to see if I can find any tempters, just to close the gap on our overall target a little more.

 

And I will discount my unsold lots.

 

When the dust has settled, I will provide you with a summary of what we've achieved, which is quite astonishing!

[Scrooge]

You beat me to it. I discounted the lots up in the thread for anyone interested.

Movie Comics 1 reduced to $85 shipped anywhere.

[Flex Mentallo]

Thanks to you too, Rick - that's a very pretty book!

[Flex Mentallo]

A few more to list before we wind this up.

 

I used to collect ACG quite avidly, now all I am left with is this nice little cluster of favorite covers and/or stories.

 

A couple of these are very scarce indeed. Asking only $70 shipped anywhere in the world.

 

AITU #73 FVF Classic cover!

 

 

 

AITU #73 GD (has the look of a high grade book but lower staple is detached, there is browning to all edges, and I think it is 'on the turn') My favorite ACG cover - feel free to laugh, and mock!

 

 

FORBIDDEN WORLDS #84 FN - Wait - this is my favorite ACG cover!

 

 

 

AITU #120 FN - Read this when I was a kid. Features a femme fatale from the earth's core who is slain by an ice cream - but then, she is only 6 inches tall!

 

 

 

 

FORBIDDEN WORLDS #145 VG-ish. Some creasing to front cover. The Timeless Tribe is such an evocative and epic love-for-an-alien tragedy that for many years I assumed it must be a reprint from ACG's early days. In he end I realized that even with it's last breath, ACG was still creating stories with the same passion as before.

 

 

[Flex Mentallo]

Complete set of I Vampire from House of Mystery in uniform NM condition. 24 issues between #290 and #319. Much better written than Marv Wolfman's Dracula, in my humble opinion! Asking $100, shipped anywhere in the world.

 

[Flex Mentallo]

How about some top quality reading for a cold winter's night?

 

Could we say $100 shipped? It's a nice round figure, and gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside that $99 just doesn't touch!

 

Break out the egg nog!

 

Pick of the litter is Sub-mariner #57 in VFNM

 

 

 

Then we have the Typhoid Mary saga from Daredevil's classic period - #254, #255, #256, #259, #260, #261, #297 NM or thereabouts. Evil, evil, evil! Nice, nice, nice! (Hic - darn that egg nog)

 

 

 

Timewarp #1 - #5 in mid-grade - more great Kaluta covers and some entertaining sc fi stories!

 

 

 

The semi-classic and poetic Children of Doom in mid-grade. 'Tell me again how the world ended, daddy.' 'Well see honey, there was this election in the United States and...'

 

 

 

And finally, DC's facsimile edition of the rare Love Stories giant in NM.
