catrick339 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) SO! I got spanked this AM by the mods, I listed a Preacher 1 without thinking it through, and they shut me down. Durn, all they had to do was point it out and I would've been happy to remove it, Here we go again! I'm getting a little break in Michigan's hot spell, cool enough I can sit at the comp comfortably in the mornings and evenings. Must be time for a thread! Nice batch of lowgrade 50's war, ditto on DC superheroes and science fiction titles, some nice romance and the usual mixed grille of weird stuff. I've decided to reinstate the Early Bird Specials, anywhere between 7 AM and 10 AM. Weeknights figure between ten and twenty books posted, and maybe double that on weekend days. DA RULEZI'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 shipping to the USA for one to four books, well packed in a padded envelope. $16 boxed Priority for larger quantities. 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. My Kudos thread:http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=4287314#Post4287314 Here's a placeholder until this evening. Little Al of the FBI 10 Another fun Ziff Davis painted cover! Nice gloss, tight and square, but large water stain along spine and lower edge. Bit of discoloration on the outer folds, rusty staples with some migration. Still perfectly clear and readable, cream - offwhite pages. $10 takes it SOLD!

catrick339 Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Superman 100 Ahh, the century issue! And I've STILL never found a high grade copy. This one is no exception. Two tape repairs inside the FC, and another big ol' water stain along the upper edge of the book. Tight with cream - offwhite pages, lays reasonably flat, still has decent gloss. At first glance, not bad! Closer inspection? Not so much....sigh... O'street G is $265, take it home for $150. SkOw and Raze 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catrick339 Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) All right, one more Fabulous Fifties lowgrader! Batman 90 Pulled upper staple on cover, light sub-type crease and a couple others besides, two small tears RH edge FC, and I kind of suspect the RH edge of the cover has been trimmed. Light water staining along spine and lower RH corner of book, LH edge BC has a touch of Marvel-style chipping. Dust shadow upper edge FC. That being said, it's still a Batman 90, and the interior is tight with white pages. Staples aren't particularly rusty, and there's only a faint hint of migration on lower staple. Asking $75 SOLD!

catrick339 Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) Wings 68 A pretty copy, but it looks juuuuust a bit narrow to me. But maybe not, the edge DOES come to a bit of a point at the outer line. Flat clean, tight, decent gloss, but there are a couple teensy tears RH edge FC, and two small tears lower edge BC. Very light sub type crease FC, dogear lower RH FC. Pages are bone white, MUCH nicer than I usually find in Fiction House books. Asking $60 SOLD!
