TALES FROM THE CRYPT RUSS COCHRAN BOX SET HARDCOVERS, Russ Cochran, 1979. Before there were Archive Editions, Russ Cochran was doing much the same thing in these high quality hardcovers, reproducing the EC Comics horror titles much larger than originally printed, with excellent paper, printing and sewn binding, all art reshot from the original art in the hands of publisher William Gaines. Covers are full color, the rest is black and white. The box on this set had some damage in shippin...g, see photo, creasing along the top edge and the spine cover is loose at the top. I grade it FINE. The books themselves are as shipped, NEAR MINT. Books measure 12 by 9 by 1 inch, slipcase box measures 13 by 10 by 5 inches. Reprints issues 17-46 of THE CRYPT OF TERROR and TALES FROM THE CRYPT with work by Al Feldstein, Johnny Craig, Wally Wood, Harvey Kurtzman, Graham Ingels, Jack Kamen, Jack Davis, Joe Orlando and others. I think the original retail price was about $50, but that’s a guess, I don’t recall. Shipping weight 16 pounds.
