CLOSED! I'm not going to get rich on this JUNK SALE!

Got a nice pile of stuff this time. Mostly less expensive but interesting stuff. I have been lucky to find quite a bit since my last sale. In addition to comics, I will have plenty of the "other stuff" I usually mix in here. This sale will run for a few days so stay tuned...

Rules:

No problem children or HOS members.

Postage is $6.00 each for up to two comics, very well packaged. More than that will have flat rate postage costs quoted. I will combine postage on multiple purchases. All will come with tracking. Other items will have postage quoted when I know buyer's location.

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.

I prefer checks and money orders as to not run up my PayPal tally too much but will also accept Paypal if you prefer.  

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...

Here's a cool early one...

Feature Books #3 "Popeye and the Jeep" 1936 David McKay

Big, fat early book. The lady I bought it from called it a coloring book but I knew better. Rare book...

Has a neat 4" lower spine split. Also a top 2" tear/split at spine. Center staple well attached. Minor corner and edge wear. A few small edge tears and creases. Very lightly tanned interior pages but very supple and can be handled easily. Nice color and a fun story.

WAS $120.

NOW $90. (Now, that’s a serious price drop! I just don’t need two of these)

Harvey Comics Hits #1 "Teen Age Dope Slaves" 1952

Used in Seduction of the Innocent on page 27. What can be said about this book that hasn't already been said? Was a grail for me 30 years ago when I first saw it. Still in high demand and doesn't come around all that often.

The book is coverless with a one sided color copy front cover. From a large collection of coverless books I recently ran into. Lots of cool stuff but this was a real stand out. Clean, solid, otherwise complete copy otherwise.

$100. or pay multiples of guide for a nicer complete copy...

Sea Devils #1 Oct 1961

Awsome Russ Heath "grey tone" cover. Incredible Heath art throughout!

A nice. clean, solid copy with great color. Book and centerfold bound well to covers. Off white interior paper. Got a problem though. Some dumb kid cut a small circle out of one interior panel. Didn't know when I bought it. My loss is your gain and still an incredible read.

$55.

SOLD!

Al Feldstein "The complete Junior and Sunny" Hardbound book Edited by Grant Geissman. 2014

Lavishly printed. Reprints all the Junior and Sunny Fox comics with a great intro by Al including a history of his work in comics and these books. If you are not Ricksneatstuff, :baiting: and can't afford the originals, this is for you. A must read. GGA at it's finest!

As a bonus...I will through in a publisher's promo pin as well.

Read once, carefully by me.

$40. (postage will be be either my media mail or flat rate, buyer's choice)
