Rick from pawn stars says in the opening �you never know what will walk in the door�
Well having had a 7000 square foot place of business now in Moonachie NJ for over a year now I am beginning to have the pleasure of exceptional things walking through my front door .
Here we have a collection of Famous Monsters magazines that contains several of the highest graded copies ever !
I am happy to present these books to the collectors of these great pieces of Americana .I know the people that collect these magazines can be fanatics about them so I have fought off offers on individual books before the structured auction started .I am trying to provide a fair chance to all the collectors out there to own some of the best copies ever graded
So we are presenting this structured auction in three phases .The entire collection will be made available on Ebay over the next three weeks .
the entire list follows Good luck with your wants and bidding !
PS I have included in the list a census repot with each issue that is highest or near highest graded
