and now for one of the bigger books in the thread....

 

Fight Against Crime 20                        $  800   

missing centrefold, name and address writer on 1st page 

The tear visible by the bottom staple goes through the first half of the book, and about 1/4” goes through all pages and can be seen on the scan of the back cover. Pages are supple. 

Another book that I may have paid too much for - but a chance to get it under $1k made it too tempting for me

I've missed out on a couple coverless - which has frustrated my efforts to marry this book up

Ok - on with the show - more of the same: GGA in red!

20 books tonight - and maybe some more cheapies added tomorrow and then the thread will close on Sunday night

One big book - a couple really nice books and then a lot of affordable and fun. 

 

Starting in a few minutes...   in the meantime take a look at the books still left from Tuesday....

missing centrefold, 

1/2” spine split from the top 

Missing pieces, spine front and back, top left back cover

Super Mystery Comics               $350 .   sold to ComCav

Volum36 Number 4

One of my favourite covers from the run - I don't mind holding on to this one... I may claim it myself when I'm finished posting.

Picked this up from a boardie last year - offering it at the same price

 

Single staple book with some rust, centrefold detached 

Light creasing on both top corners of the book - hard to see on the scans
