I posted the last photo I have from the newsstand. No comics but there are some cool magazines. Also a good shot of my Great Great Uncle.

I hope this works.

That Tales of the Unexpected can be pressed to a 9.4, no?

Great thread!

I saw this photo:



And wondered if hanging by the corner at a newsstand was what caused the damage to the UR corner of this book:



The marks are on the front and back cover. I have a few King Comics with the same markings. Anyone know for sure?

I kinda like knowing my books may have been hanging on display at a newstand. Is there a name for this kind of damage feature?

Four, actually. Black Terror 9 & 10, Exciting #38, and Mystery Comics #3. I think this is the first old photo I've seen that includes Nedors.
