Yea she is a bit rough around the edges, but its got character . Been going a little overboard with buying, need to slow down. Especially with this one, went a little heavy handed on the bidding. Its a wrap for me, for a little while at least. That is a tough book to get in any grade. Wish I hadn't sold mine years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post szav Posted July 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2018 Finally got a copy of my favorite of the Ajax Phantom Lady's thanks to a boardie...dunno what kinda cheap paper Ajax used but most of these that I've seen are super faded and have pieces flaking off all over the place so I'm really happy to even get a 4.0.

Popular Post ender Posted July 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2018 Found this while on vacation. It is more than a little rough but when I ask for golden age DC at a comic shop I usually just get the blank stare.

While i know and respect Startling 49's place in the classic cover pantheon, it's a Top 10 Robot cover for me, not Top 5 though. The Brick Bradford is really rising in that respect and of course Fantastic 3 battles it out with SC 49 for most folks' #1. But Zip Comics 3 and the underappreciated (imho) Amazing Mystery Funnies v2 #11 and masterpieces to me and in my Top 5 Robo covers. I think it's time for a poll.. @tabcom Where ya at buddy?

Popular Post Sqeggs Posted July 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2018 Pretty tough early '50s DC to find in semi-decent shape. Art by the often overlooked Bob Oksner. mustang33guy, Point Five, ender and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so?I purchased it from a fellow on here,came from Las Vegas.Same buy as the Green Lama 6 with the odd black ribbon.Can't remember the boadie though.rjpb says he has seen other Quality with 15cents before. The indica looks normal,printed in the USA. I didn't even notice the price difference until i'd had it a few years.Just lucked out.
