Robot Man Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Just now, Black Bat said: Outlaws #133.0? OW. Pretty ragged but supple and attached. Obnoxious big corner folds bottom right corner, staple pull tears, 1” tear and small chip on back cover. These Cole westerns are pretty sweet. If my grandma bought me these I would be totally cool with it. $28 Take Black Bat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Bat Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) I have a confession to make. I collect GA crime crash covers. My neighbor Ellis doesn't like it, thinks I'm "morbid", but I think they are badd azz. Gotta be crime though- no race cars, superhero or funny animal bs. Anybody got a CCC book not in this pic let me know, maybe we can trade/buy/sell...

Significantly under-rated IMO. 6” fold bottom right corner, same on back cover- doesn’t seem to break color so press out? Top right corner folds and nicks. ½” split top spine. Cover feels rough in places but great colors.PLUS- Headline Comics #44 What??4.0 1” bottom spine split, 3 small chips out of top and bottom spine corners, chip off bottom right corner. Small tear bottom edge fc. S&K cover.Both for $198 not anymore! Price reduced to $148!

Splits and chips along spine but cover attached. $218 4 hours ago, Black Bat said: Innocent “Those Were The Days” Golden Age Four Pack or“4 comics my grandma bought me and I hid them inside the encyclopedias so my friends wouldn't see them that’s why they’re in such great shape" four pack.1. Real Life Comics #48 5.5? Chipping on edge of back cover. Rattlesnake Dong is back, and this time he’s brought his posse:2. Robin Hood AND His Merry Men #34. 8.0+ w/ow. Just a few small flaws. This could become the highest graded copy in the WHOLE WORLD, but then again, maybe not. What do I know? Obviously not much after letting that space cowboy book go for the price of a fancy hamburger.3. It REALLY Happened, I Swear To God. #5. 6.5 wear/small pulls around staples- Hey it’s a Schomburg cover! 4. Crown Comics #8. 6.5-7.0? Abrasion wear on top and bottom left corners, a few very small lower spine creases. Otherwise a beautiful tight shiny flat book with white pages. I looked and saw this listed for like hundreds of dollars- but who buys them, and why?$148 for all four! That’s less than the price of 6 fancy hamburgers! per pm Point Five and Raze 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Bat Posted July 31, 2020 Author Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) Terrifying Tales #15 3.5 Slight C-1 small CT and small glue.My favorite Cole jungle cover? This one broke my heart- twice! I had this copy for a while and always wanted an upgrade. After waiting for years, I bought a beautiful raw 8.5ish. After “upgrading” I sent this one in for grading… Then I found resto on the 8.5 too – (the dealer refunded- thank you, you know who you are!). But when this copy came back purple, well, now I just can’t look at her the same anymore- it’s like she’s been lying to me all these years! Still a solid presenting copy- Crack her out and fool your friends!SOLD- THANK YOU! Edited August 1, 2020 by Black Bat Raze and SkOw 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
