I've decided that four years of searching in vain for my target grades is enough ... I'm picking up missing issues to complete the run while still keeping an eye out for upgrades.

 

My Ex-wife made fun of me so bad when I got a copy of this one.  Are we loyal Dr. Strange fans or what?

I love Strange Tales! Very cool artwork. I posted these images on a different thread earlier, but I think they belong here. These are the newest additions to my collection.

I was at the LCS yesterday looking for a few inexpensive reader books. I found this copy of ST #130 in the recent arrival box. Intrigued by the cover and the "meet the Beatles" blurb, I bought the book. I was however massively disappointed to find the Beatles were imposters.  They were thugs posing to be the Beatles.

Since it's hard to assemble and admire a big set of slabs, I tend to make desktop images for my 21:9 monitor.

Here is a Strange Tales background. I keep icons on the left side.

Been a Silver Age collector for 23 years, but finally committed myself to assembling a graded collection in 2017.

Pretty sure it's the same age as all the other copies.

Nicely crafted Lou

Since I don't have an issue from 1958, I need to skip to 1959

One from 1960.

1961.
