CLOSED! JUNK SALE! Expanded Edition Lots of Weirdness!
5 5

124 posts in this topic

Howdy geeks! I've been stacking up stuff for a while. Upgrades, Collection clean up and just stuff laying around. Lots of GA this time. Many Friction House, PCH and weird old books. At least a FULL magazine box worth. A few surprises thrown in as well. Hope to wrap this up tomorrow. Baring another 18 inning World Series game... Go Dodgers!

Rules:

No problem children or HOS members.

Postage is $5.00 each for up to two comics, very well packaged. I will combine postage on multiple purchases. All will come with tracking. 

I prefer to sell only to US addresses but might make an exception if I know you.

PM's and offers... I am trying to sell this stuff and want to get as much listed as I can. I try to price fairly. I probably won't have a lot of time to review PMs if I want to get this stuff listed. An "I'LL TAKE IT" icon takes it first. So, keep that in mind if you want something. When I get done, I will review PMs (in order of when they came in). If you have a question (other than a lower offer) post it and I will try to answer you.

Payment is by PayPal within 3 days FIRM. I will also take checks and money orders if you let me know after I send you an invoice.

Returns: No hassle returns within two weeks from when tracking says it was delivered. Return postage is on you unless I make a gross error and in that case I will "man-up" and pay return postage. I don't expect any returns though as I've only had 3 or 4 in 40 years. 

This stuff all comes from a smoke filled, varmit infested, mouldy junk house. (Just kidding!) Here we go...

Mystery in Space #48 Dec 1958

Weird scarecrow cover. I just have to do a "subset" on these in my Junk thread one of these days.

A sharp, very glossy, tight, clean, bright complete copy. Has a long, thin "subscription crease" down center. Has some thin color touch that bleeds through into the inside front cover in the black areas. Beautiful copy otherwise. Book and centerfold very secure to covers. Off white interior pages.

SOLD!

Jungle Comics #55 July 1944 Friction House Pubs

A well worn, chippy complete copy. Spine is a little rough. Book is for the most part detached from covers. Interior pages have rough, chippy edges. A couple small pieces out of corner at bottom. A couple small spine splits. A few interior pages have corners gone that do not affect art or story. Tanning pages but still fairly supple. A nice, complete low grade reader that presents well in a mylar.

Was $30. Now $25. Still cheap for a 1944 comic book!

Here's a sad one...




Action Comics #16 1939 DC Comics

This is missing covers and first two wraps. Pages are pretty yellowed but supple with minimal damage. It has 56 pages. Has a killer centerfold that is a double page spread offering the large Supermen of America cloth patch. Man, I wish I had one of those. Centerfold is bound tightly to book. Comes with a single outer wrap from Action Comics #15. It has tears, creases and missing a few small edges especially at spine. You will never see an Action this early this cheap. Need parts or a centerfold? Due to what it is, it is sold AS IS with no returns...

SOLD!
