Well, no responses here, but several PM's have come in, anyone else want to chime in?

 

Looks like there may be enough interest to at least start a thread hereabouts.

 

Drop a line or post here if you're Down With The Romance.

I'm not a big romance collector, but high grade GA romance can easily catch my eye from time to time.

 

I'd say if you're talking higher grade material (7.5+), then it might be worthwhile to list them. That might pull in folks that otherwise wouldn't have as much interest romance books. Lower graded material, however, might fall on deaf ears IMO.

Well, well. Quite a flurry of PM's about this potential sales thread.

 

The Boards have shown me their true nature and it's all soft underbellies, hugs, and cuddles.

 

Look for Rick's Raggedy Romance thread to start tomorrow or Monday, as soon as I can get a decent amount of scans finished and uploaded.

ATTENTION ALL YOU PAGE SNIFFERS!

 

I intend to start the next sales thread either Sunday evening, March 1st, or Monday evening, March 2nd.

 

More Raggedy Romance, more PCH, more Atlas, more Archie, more Oddball Humor, more Westerns, more War, more....well, more Everything. If you saw my last thread you know exactly what you're in for.

 

Run and hide! Either that, or shower me with :takeit:, your choice.

Howdy all, question for you GA romance fans.

 

I just picked up a collection of romance books, all of them precode. Maybe 100 or better Timely/Marvel/Atlas, and another 100 or so of mixed titles from other companies.

 

Is there enough interest hereabouts to start a sales thread? Atlas only? All companies? Sorry, not many Matt Baker books. Heavy on Atlas, DC, Ace and Harvey.

 

Let me know what you think.

Good Morning!

 

After many PM's asking about it, I'm going to auction off the front cover to Detective Comics 33 which I recently acquired. You can get a preview of it by going to Catrick's Brag Thread in the GOLDEN AGE forum.

 

I expect to get things going at around Noon today, and running until 8PM Sunday, unless someone matches my ridiculous BIN price,

 

Thanks to everyone who has expressed interest!

I've got the full catalog of books up here LizardMart

 

100s of new books have been added (and subtracted!) since the last VCC!

 

90% or more are SA/BA, but the button-humpers would get me for the few moderns that appear if I posted them here in the GA/SA/BA thread. :(

 

Check it out!! :banana:

Astonishing Tales 6

TTA 22, 30, 34

Some "New X-Men" in super high grade.

Early Tomb of Dracula

Have a look. Thanks for your page views!

HAW HAW HAW! Start saving up your dough, and brace yourselves.

 

Along toward the end of June or early July Catrick's Cornucopia will be making its triumphant return!

 

Lunatic Lowgrade Guy has stepped off another big ol' pile of precode books and between those and another couple small snags I will have:

 

OVER ONE HUNDRED PRECODE HORROR BOOKS TO LIST

 

I'm thinking of making the thread strictly PCH and PCH (Horror and Humor)

 

Does anyone have any other genres they'd like folded in?

 

Post here or PM me with any requests or suggestions.

Well, the bills are coming home to roost from Cat's birthday party and my adventures at WW Chicago, and I just paid a visit to Lunatic Lowgrade Guy this morning.,

 

You all know what that means, don't you?

 

Yep, Catrick's Cornucopia is due to rear its malformed head again!

 

Starting some time Labor Day afternoon, I'll be putting up a mixed grill of....wait for it.....50's and 60's comic books! Who'da thunk?

 

Here's the hook this time:

 

Everything, or damned near it, will be listed at a flat price of $10

 

Yep, almost everything will be either ten bucks, or free with a purchase.

 

Brace yourselves.
