American Comics Update: The Bute Collection: Pre-Code Horror Fest: Mister Mystery #10
*Horror 1940-1959: Also from the Bute Collection this week, issue #10 of Stanley Morse’s Mister Mystery, one of the most notorious of all the Pre-Code Horror titles with many infamous covers. The masked and cloaked (and top-hatted!) Mister Mystery himself is our host to a mix of ghost and spooky stories, with body modifications and other gruesome shocks. The cover is by Bernard Bailey, with atmospheric interior art by Ross Andru and many others. This is sadly a very low grade copy, with covers detached and separated. The front and back covers have small chips out at spine and small book shop stamps. Pages are a quite reasonable off-white to tan and also have book shop stamps in some margins.
PICTURED: MISTER MYSTERY #10 PR £50 Pre-Code. SOLD
