American Update: It’s back! Pre-Code Horror Fest returns with Weird Chills #1 – Iconic Horror Classic, with Basil Wolverton art
*Horror 1940-1959: We commence a new round of Pre & Post Code horrors this week. From Stanley Morse (Key) Publications in 1954, this first issue of the legendary Weird Chills provides the hapless reader with blood-draining, gaslighting, force-feeding with gunpowder, vengeful hallucinations, and forced marriage to a gorilla – all this high drama and grand guignol, plus the chilling work of artist Basil Wolverton in ‘The Man Who Never Smiles!’, wrapped up in a horrific Bernard Bailey blood-transfusion cover. One of the top twenty most sought-after Pre-Code Horror classics, this is vanishingly rare in any grade, and we count ourselves especially lucky to have a VG+ copy in stock, light spine and corner creasing, but unmarred black background, only slight looseness at staples, and presentable interior pages without tears, creasing or other defacements. Sound and clean, this highly desirable VG+ item is on sale at £700. Front and back cover images and splash are shown below; high resolution images are available on request. Join us again soon for more Horror Fest fun!
