Hello and welcome to another Realm of Relics listing!
This listing is for an original 1953 Harvey Publications "Chamber of Chills" #19 featuring the classic Lee Elias cover. This is the famous cover that the band Misfits "borrowed" for their 1984 cover artwork to the single "Die, Die, My Darling". It has the stories "Happy Anniversary", "Terrorvision", "Garzan the Magnificent", and "Black Passion".The book itself is unrestored and unaltered in any way. This book is from my personal co...llection and I sold something really good to get it. I've been looking for this for a LONG time for one that was within my grasp. I love comics and I love Misfits collectibles. But there is something more important to me now that I must fund (a bill) and I want it to go to someone who will get the same joy out of it as I have! Anyway...
The front and back covers are completely detached from the rest of the book. There are no staples to be found so the interior pages are loose, but look well. I would not recommend handling it much! I don't even know if it CAN be cleaned or pressed, but that would be the opinion of a professional cleaner or restoration expert. While taking photos, two pieces were loose in the bag as can be seen in the photo. Gloves were worn while carefully handling. Book is back in bag and double boarded and is also in a toploader. Please ask any questions before bidding. This auction is an "As-Is" auction unfortunately (due to the condition and that this book shouldn't be shipped all over the place getting bumped around...unless it's one way to get graded and slabbed). I've seen some looking much worse that have gotten a 1.0 so I'm going to say it's at least that!?? :-)
And for those that always ask for a reserve, let's just say that it's well under the coverless one!
Thanks for looking!
Are you interested in getting rid of some slabbed or raw comics?
Let us know! We do trades and layaways well!Thanks for looking!
