A change of pace. Offering up a handful of neat Donald and Scrooge books from my collection, priced below comparable sales... let's see if there's an audience here before I throw them to the ebay wolves. Secure USPS Priority ship extra at cost. First 'takeit' wins, whether in the thread or via PM. Returns no problem.

-- Paypal or check/MO all OK. Please be able to pay within a week, or I reserve the right to cancel the transaction. I usually ship 1-2 days after payment but occasionally need a week if a post office trip is involved; just let me know if any concerns.

Any questions, feel free to PM. Thanks all!

WALT DISNEY'S COMICS & STORIES #34 in 2.5. Early Barks story; Walt Kelly Gremlins feature and WWII plane insignia illustrations featuring Disney animals. Neat war-themed cover, a gem from this era. Book looks VGish at a glance but some rumpling and bends; some top corners in the back have chips and top of centerfold has cracks along a production wrinkle (see spoilered pics) suggesting slight brittleness in those spots. Cream/OW pages, supple overall.

$80

WALT DISNEY'S COMICS & STORIES #35 in 3.5. Nice solid war-era duck book. Another early Barks story; Walt Kelly Gremlins; WWII plane insignia illustrations. Bought as VG- from HA long ago and I agree with that grade, but most would call it straight VG.

$80  SOLD

The WDC&S in the 30s contain early Barks 10 pagers and are generally hard to find (take it from someone who has been there). The prices here are good, so what are you all waiting for? 

I need to get Comcav and Rick started on these. Maybe I can find a cover with Daisy in bondage or something. hm

Ah you know, Barks stuff, like Walk Kelly, is just delightful.  But never felt the pull to collect originals.

Your books ALWAYS have the best colors, Jon! and these are no exception!

Aw, thanks Sharon! I do like my pretty duck covers. Or my pretty skeleton covers. Or whatever.  hm

Folks, let me know if any interest in these; offers are welcome. I'll leave the thread up until tomorrow, then books will likely move elsewhere. Thanks for looking!
