*Horror 1940-1959: More from Avon’s much sought after horror title, this time an unbroken run from #8 through to #13, featuring artwork by E. Everett Kinstler, Harry Lazarus, Gene Fawcette, Sid Check, Alvin Hollingsworth and a promising youngster named Joe Kubert! Of particular interest is issue #12, which breaks away from the short-story anthology format to offer a book-length adaptation of Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’ – the first appearance, we believe, of the Lord of the Vampires in comics form! With the exception of #12, which is a very presentable GD+, these are mid to low grade copies, averaging FA+, suffering from various combinations of browning, tears, and watermarking, but all complete, eminently readable and reasonably affordable copies of a hotly sought pioneering series.
