American Update: The Atlas Explosion! Pre & Post Code Horror Mega-Fest continues with Strange Tales
*Horror 1940-1959: Strange Tales, the mystery anthology which weathered the turbulent 1950s to become a mainstay of the Marvel Universe, is the focus of this week’s horror update. We have 19 1950s ST’s new in stock, ranging from numbers #25 through to #63. These feature the finely-honed artwork which we have come to expect from the company – having shaken off the clunky excesses of the early years, craftsmen like Everett, Severin, Heath et al were at their productive and creative peak, and once the Code was introduced, used even greater imagination to generate eye-catching and intriguing cover scenes. While this selection of Strange Tales features several mid-high grade copies, depicted below, it should be noted that there are a lot of complete but low-grade issues ready to be snapped up by folks who are happy with reading copies! Illustrated are: #31 FA/GD £60, #39 VG- £67, #44 VG/FN £96, #45 FN- £105, #48 VG £69, #49 GD/VG £52, #56 VG £69 and #63 VG £69. We have usually found that Strange Tales sells through fast, so rapid response is recommended.
