Readcomix Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) Okay, they're not 1940 Sandman covers from Adventure Comics, but they're published Flessel, which ain't exactly lying around on street corners..... Five... Simple.... 1) 1st wins; tie/indeterminate goes to the thread 2) Payment is Check/Money Order. I don't like e-places other than right here on these boards 3) Shipping: Boxed shipping via USPS is $20. 4) Don't be listy including the little one in my head 5) Returns: Sure, just notify me within three days and get it back to me in the same shape on your dime. Kudos thread is linked under my avatar. Edited January 16, 2021 by Readcomix Comics4All 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readcomix Posted January 6, 2021 Author Share Posted January 6, 2021 Both of these will be dailies from the newspaper strip, David Crane, which was started by Win Mortimer in the mid-50's and ran until 1970. For much of the last decade of the strip, Flessel drew it. But 2,677 of those strips were donated to the comic art museum at Ohio State, so most of it is not out there. I recently picked up three and am sharing two here. KCOComics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readcomix Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 Hmm... Like I said, comps were tough to find for these. Let's do $125 each. That way, you're into a Flessel piece for less than a buck-fifty shipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unstoppablejayd Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Someone who buys these... is stealing them for this price... if these were on Heritage they would probably go for double the price! Readcomix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
