American Comics Update: The Bute Collection: Pre-Code Horror Fest: Worlds Of Fear #3
*Horror 1940-1959: Also from the Bute Collection this week, issue #3 of Fawcett’s Worlds Of Fear from 1952. Beneath a striking and garish cover, possibly by Shelley Moldoff, interior art is by George Evans, possibly Moldoff and others. Stories include monstrous life-forms, zombies and a ghost pirate and are quite intense. The black background cover has fine creases at spine and edges which break colour. The staples have a spot of two or rust with minor migration; the cover is off at top staple. There is a spot about the size of a small coin on the central head’s forehead that looks like it was a handwritten price, crudely covered over by green pen, but looks better than it sounds. Overall, not too bad.
