Yeah, my MonkeyFace gets into a lot of tight spots too.

Yep, it's everywhere, hee, hee!
I love seeing a monkey head on a cover.

Thanks Geo, I'm doing my latest on Clue Comics 2 right now!

1945 coverless GRAND SLAM THREE ACES #47 ~ Commander Steel, Dr Destine, etc

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1945-coverless-GRAND-SLAM-THREE-ACES-47-Commander-Steel-Dr-Destine-etc-/370601390262?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item56499070b6#ht_500wt_1156

A Canadian White (except, it's in color?).

Who could resist "Dr. Destine - The Man Who Played the Oboe!" If that doesn't scream adventure, I don't know what does.

WOW!! And I bet that books smells great too.
I can see the mold on the pages from the water damage.

Yeah! I love that smell too! May put in on this, but it looks like someone cut the top of the book off and took some parts of the panels with it.

It looks more like it was just printed pushed way up on the paper to my eye.  Look at the giant margin at the bottom.  Canadian whites aren't noted for the high production values in most cases.
'The Penguin' is still the one I'd love to see more scans of in the Bell Features version of 'Wow Comics'.

"The Man Who Played the Oboe!"!!!

I wondered if there might be someone US-based who’d be willing to bid on this:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/Golden-Age-193855-/66/i.html?_nkw=our+flag+comics

The seller ships US only. Unfortunately I already bought a book from him and had it sent to an american friend of mine which should bring it to me next july, and he’s already been so nice I don’t feel like asking again.
Besides me being interested in the Unknown Soldier, I think it‘s missing from the DCM.
It‘s in Fair condition, so I guess hopefully it wouldn’t go for a high price.

I coincidentally noticed that THIS US-based Ebay store

http://stores.ebay.com/bthoven14?_trksid=p4340.l2563

is running 400 golden age / silver age comic books for the next five days.
Starting with prices from scratch!
Will take deep pockets in the end though...

I'd be interested in a dozen DCM-missing precode horror issues.
Is anyone of you guys already bidding there?

Maybe we could synchronize our bids here (haven't bidden yet) - just checking.
Will inform you if I bid.

I may try to bid on the Our Flag myself, since a friend offered me the availability of having comics shipped to him.

Besides this, not on eBay, but there is user Straw-Man on the CGC forum which is offering this Silver Streak #19:
http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=5716295#Post5716295
There a the fiche copy on the DCM, from the very same copy, which belonged to Otto Binder (!)
I’d love to buy it but I am totally broke and not even sure if I’ll bid on the Our Flag.

[tilliban]

I placed active bids on the following books on Ebay (ending tomorrow).
Will try and keep them active.

Strange Mysteries #10
Journey Into Fear #5
Haunted Thrills #7
Weird Adventures #2
Crime Must Pay The Penalty #33
Hand Of Fate #15

We will see... (keep you informed about the outcome).

[Yoc]

GL guys!

[tilliban]

Sorry guys, that did not go well...

I just have been awarded with a copy of
HAND OF FATE #15
Our existing scan is a crude digicam shot, and I want to replace it with something nicer.
No one wanted Ace Magazines again - typical!

If it wasn't for our gentleman Jim (who's still got so many unscanned books in store for us) I would be frustrated.

[Yoc]

A nice HoF15 scan is better than a stick in the eye (and likely to show one!).

Thanks for trying T.
