Am I seeing a color breaking stress line near the top right corner? Boy, could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This collection is absolutely astounding, and I'm proud to own the handful I've managed to win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bounty_coder Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Jon, thank you for letting new blood take the torch on many of your prized and cherished books. I now have the pleasure of my 2nd Lou Fine cover ever from your collection. WHITE Pages... And it's got my favorite Publishing Month to boot!

Sqeggs Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The pq is an issue, but it was pretty cheap and it's one of the very few early humor books with a cover that actually made me chuckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, I was watching that, but I settled for one without the Larson label, at least I did own one for a long time. There weren't too many of these on the census, so I figured it would be nice to have. Artboy99 and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is great to have a book I really love and feel a little like I am taking up the baton form Jon in caring for it for many years before I pass the baton to someone else to carry. Happy you won the book you were after. Had never seen that cover. Edited June 15, 2017 by Gotham Kid batman_fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries! I've got the pq issue all sorted. To get a proper tan on the pages, I'm going to wear sunglasses when I crack out the book, and then read it page by page like Jon Berk would have all of us do!
