*Horror 1940-1959: Also from the Bute Collection this week, another dip of the toe in the water of the high quality Atlas 1950s horror line, with four Pre-Code and two Post-Code issues of Uncanny Tales, all in fairly nice shape, and featuring both a Spider-Man prototype story and one issue with a prized double cover. 
PICTURED: UNCANNY TALES
#15 VG/FN £135 Pre-Code. Brodsky, Sinnott, Andru, Fass and others. Nice black background unmarked cover, tight, firm staples and off-white pages. Faint reading crease at spine, very minor edge wear and a couple of short spine ticks and that’s it. SOLD
#18 VG+ £125 Pre-Code. Heath, Forte, Colletta, Powell and others. Solid and intact copy with tight, firm staples and off-white pages. Unmarked cover, minor edge wear and corner rounding; some colour bleed through on to inside covers. SOLD
#25 VG- £80 Pre-Code. Benulis, Colletta, Tartaglione, Sekowsky and others. Nice dark background cover, tight, firm staples and off-white pages. Faint horizontal crease across middle of cover just breaks colour; also several colour-breaking creases in bottom eight corner, but a solid copy. 
#26 GD £110 Pre-Code. Spider-Man prototype story. Maneely, Benulis, Ayers, Greene and others. Cover off bottom staple, staples rusty. Water damage has caused a ripple effect to the bottom half, but intact and colourful enough. 
#37 Double cover. Outer VG/FN Inner: FN/VF £195 Burgos, Forgione, Ayers, Drucker, Sinnott and others. Beautifully preserved due to double cover. Both covers have rich colour with a few soft creases which don’t break colour (less on inner), some minor spine wear on outer, fresh gloss on inner. Tight, firm staples and supple off-white pages. SOLD
#41 VG+ £70 Burgos, Ayers, Andru, John Severin, Forte, Wildey and others. Solid copy with tight, firm staples and off-white pages. Minor spine and edge wear; slight foxing towards bottom edge.
