Well,  it's  time to shovel  out  the  barn  again.  

Just  in  time  for  Halloween,   I  have  a  stack of  PCH  and  pre-hero  Marvel, some interesting   Golden Age,   nice  stack of Millies  and  Patsys,  plenty of  funny  stuff,  a  bit of 
war  ands  crime,   and  as usual,  some  oddballs. 

Who's up  for  some  funnybooks?

First,  

DA RULEZ

I'll put up a big scan of the FC,  note anything else I spot,  and as always,  if you'd like a scan 
of the  back cover I'll be happy to  supply it.

Shipping to USA preferred, but if you want something sent to Canada or overseas PM me 
and we'll work something out. 
 
:TAKEIT:  rules the roost,  but PM's, kibitzing,  and general tomfoolery  are welcome.

$8  Priority flat shipping to the USA,  one book or a stack.  Canada or overseas to be determined.
 
For the bargainminded  I can ship one or two books  First Class for  $4

CHECK OR MONEY ORDER  PREFERRED, I just plain out don't like paypal.  

If you just GOTTA pay with paypal  PM me and we'll work something out.

Returns for any reason on your dime,  and  for any missed major  flaw or bad description on my dime.

Here we go!

Private Eye #1

This comes out  of  a  bound  volume (More   unbound   issues to come)  and has four neat  binder holes  on  spine,  and  some  glue  residue  along most of the spine.
Here's  the interesting  bit,   when  this  batch of  comics  was bound,  they DIDN'T    trim  them.   Fifteen   or so issues,   all  of   various  different  sizes.  Everything
from  Airboy  and  Tarzan  to   Jungle  and  Human  Torch,   from  Red  Dragon  to Thrilling. 

Asking  $25

Interior  is  tight  with offwhite  pages

Yours  for $40

Web of  Evil 15

Well,   that's what it says in the indicia,  LOL

Reds on  the FC  are  basically  faded  away  to nothing over most of the FC, and the top  half of the BC  ain't much better. 

If  that doesn't bother you  the rest of the    book is  quite  solid with  tight spine  and CF,  but   the whole  book  looks  as  though it's  wicked up   a bit of  light  oil.  
Pages  are  supple   and  creamy,  but  look  offcolor  to  me,  like   something  has  been  soaked up  decades ago  and mostly   gone  away  again.  
Several  small  tears on interior  pages,   a  couple  barely break into  the edge  of  a  panel. 

Solid  reader  for  $35

Santa Claus Parade NN (#1, 1951)

Interesting  Ziff  Davis painted  cover,  large  116 page  page format, with  some  problems. 
Corner  off  lower   RH  FC,  see  scan.   Smaller  corner  off  page   1,   barely   gets into  the panel page 1,   barely  brushes  one panel on page  2.  Couple  inches 
of  strip  off  lower  spine.  Plenty  of general  wear  FC  and BC,.  but  tight spine,    interior is nice  with offwhite pages. 

O'street  is  $36.   asking  $30

Lorna,  Queen of the Jungle  #1

Well  all  right!  Lots of  burly  natives in masks,   many  bearing  spears,   one  lone  European  doing  his  best with  a La Savate  kick,   and  not one,  not  two,  but  THREE  gorillas  menacing   the  whole crew,  as  Our Heroine  swings  in   from   Stage  Left  to  save  the  day! 
Chee,   this is  exciting!

Small tape  at  both  staples,  couple  small tears here and there,   bit of  chipping along  spine,    lots of  chips upper  edge  BC. Small  tear  lower  BC.  Interior  is  tight  with  offwhite - white pages.

Asking $100

tight  spine  and  CF,   few  small  tears/chips BC,  small  price  tag  stuck on lower  RH BC, offwhite pages.

Atomic  Comics 2

Alas,   one  CF  is  missing.   But   the five  page  Kid Kane  story  by  Matt  Baker  is  complete!

Water along  spine,    both   staples  rusty  with  some  migration,  pulled upper  staple. 
On  closer  examination,    upper  staple  appears  to be  missing  entirely,   maybe  rusted  away,  lol 

All that being  said,  what's left  displays  nicely,   flat  with cream - offwhite pages,  with  a  few  small tears inside.  
And the  missing  CF  of  course.

Asking  $50  SOLD!
