*Horror 1940-1959: Launching in 1951, and ending with 1957’s #61, Mystic was a stalwart of Atlas’ horror line until the collapse of Atlas’ distributor required massive cancellations and nearly spelled the end for the company. But for those several years, Mystic provided shock, horror and awe aplenty in both the Pre and Post Code eras, with stunning artwork from Everett, Heath, Maneely, Severin, Post, Williamson and more. We have a substantial run of Mystic, from the first issue to the final one – not, sadly, all of the issues in between, but 40 of them, which ain’t bad. Grades, as with all of our incoming Atlas, vary widely from complete but disreputable through to extremely attractive and presentable, so if you’re into vintage horror/mystery at all, there will be something to tickle your fancy! Highlights of this selection are pictured here: #1 GD £130, #2 GD £64, #5 GD+ £57, #19 FA/GD £55 (notorious ‘Swamp Girl’ cover), #31 VG/FN £90, #36 GD/VG £55, #43 VG £54, #46 VG £54 and the finale, #61 VG at £54.
