Great book Jay and all time favorite Everett cover for me, you can tell he had fun and enjoyed this one.

It is interesting how some Atlas issues have printing issues, a lot of JIM 5's have a miscut, just like almost every single Mystery Tales 11 has the red colors fading or washed out on the side (White Mountain copy had it too).

Both the 9 and 11 are prone to inconsistency of the red.

Which is why I love my NB Mystery Tales 9. Not only are the reds saturated, but the fuschia on the girl is perfect. I've never seen a copy with that colour strike.

I've found a satisfactory copy

Very nice. My copy still has that fuschia tint you see on the girl that I've never seen on another.

Beautiful copies of MT 9 gents! 

While I don't happen to have that issue and I do want one, this is still my fav of the run. Just love the detail and the l'il skellies in the crystal ball!

My old 11, good buy on that one a sale I’d like a redo on.  Congrats!

[Johnny545]

Good colors on this one too:

Here is something neat, cover proof (?) for my favorite post code Atlas (Everett)

[adamstrange]

Sweet!!!

[Johnny545]

One more cool one, probably not a keeper for me, but this book is stunning, but for a dented corner (which would likely press out) this book looks VF/NM razor sharp corners (3 at least, ha):
