CGC certified: Good- (1.8). Cream pages. Cover: Bernard Baily. No script credits. Art: Ed Smalle, Vince Fodera, Tony Mortellaro, A.C. Hollingsworth, Hy Fleishman. GPAnalysis: No reported sales in this grade. A 2.5 sold for $112 in 2017. No reported sales in any grade since 2017. "Issue #15 has a rather graphic junkie story, entitled 'Living Death.' Told in the second person, a narrative voice which Gillmor uses almost as often as EC, the story is a simple and moving sermon on the evils of drugs.... The junkie ends up permanently paralyzed in the classic 'living dead' condition. The authorities, not caring too much about an apparently overdosed junkie, consign him quickly to a cheap wooden coffin and bury him alive!" — George Suarez, Tales To Terrible To Tell #9. NEC: 1993, p. 19. A limited edition of 150 softcover and 15 hardcover catalogues is available. 400 lots, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcover $30, deluxe hardcover with dust jacket and limitation plate $200. Ten of the 15 hardcovers are pre-ordered and the rest will go quickly, so reserve yours now. To order, contact [email protected] . Consignments welcome for PBA's December 2021 Comic Book sale. Top prices for Pre-Code Horror, Golden Age, Silver Age, original art and ephemera.
