All have "Lois Stewart" neatly stamped on the cover & splash page. At least it's a nice small stamp. Wow, Lois took great care of her books!! These are wonderful pieces of Americana. I like them raw like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) So..... to answer the question I posed when I titled this thread, "Yes, there is STILL a market for Western comics!" I have sold 9 of my western comics to boardies since I started the thread. And watching the explosion of "Western Comic Pride" being posted on this thread put a big smile on my face. My conclusion is that probably 90% of western comics are considered drek (especially photo covers, except for the Stan Lee Black Rider Cover or a few western romance covers), but the remaining 10% of covers have exciting art, or good looking western damsels which makes them irresistible to collectors. Thank you to everyone for posting covers, and by all means continue to post cool western covers as you get them.

PopKulture Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I've picked up quite a few westerns here and there in the last month, so it was funny that a thread asking if there is a market for westerns was started essentially as I was finding them in unlikely places: TheWatcher, szav and MrBedrock 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
