BEWARE No. 6 Author: Place: Publisher: Date: Description: Trojan Magazines. November, 1953. CGC certified: VG (4.0). Myron Fass, Henry Kiefer, John Belfi and Al Tyler art. Used in Seduction of the Innocent. The horror mag that inspired one of Wertham's pithiest (pissiest?) quotes: "Children are first shocked and then desensitized by all this brutality." Unfortunately, Wertham was referring to a panel depicting murder and mutilation, not the anonymous cover artist's brutal Jack Davis swipe from Vault of Horror #26. A limited edition of 100 softcover and 15 hardcover catalogues are available. Over 200 pages, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcovers $40, dust-jacketed hardcover with limitation plate $200. To order, contact ivan@pbagalleries.com or visit: https://www.pbagalleries.com/content/comics/. R. Crumb says, "I found [PBA's catalogue] so interesting that I am saving it for the texts that accompany the comics which were put up for auction. This is some of the best commentary I’ve yet seen on the quality of the content of comic books. I especially enjoyed the reviews of the post-war horror comics. Great. Priceless." Consignments welcome for PBA's Spring 2021 Comic Book sale. Pre-Code Horror, Golden Age and Silver Age comics, original art and ephemera sought. Send inquiries to ivan@pbagalleries.com.
