Humbug and Trump complete collection Harvey Kurtzman. original owner set.:
$1000.00

....more from the southern california vaults of Oldcomix! Free shipping if you pay my starting buy it now price of $1000. This is a very solid set, good quality. 14 of 17 are original owner. I had Humbug #1 recently graded by CGC and they came up with a 6.0 off-white to white pages. The rest of the Humbugs came from the same attic, and except for the magazine size are about the same condition. The Trumps did also but being bigger magazines and older they are a bit lesser in quality.

Stan Freberg signed Humbug #10 for me in Burbank many years ago. He and his wife were nice and they had not seen that issue for decades. The #10 has his photo inside back cover smoking a Humbug. All of the Humbugs come shipped to you in hard shell cases.

Grading is subjective but I grade down for staining, spine, roll, tears, etc.2.0 Good, 3.0 Good plus, 4.0 very good, 5.0 very good plus, 6.0 fine (at first glance, 6.0-Fine comics look perfect), 7.0 fine plus, 8.0 very fine, 9.0 near mint

#10; there are three copies of this issue in the lot. Stan Freberg signed one. he also gave me his business card upon signing. He passed away in 2015. Each issue is about a very good 4.0.
#11; there are two copies each about a very good plus. Kurtzman reprinted most stories, beefed up the page count but still quit with this issue.

Trump Magazine by Kurtzman and Hefner.

#1; 3.0. january 1957. no staining but it seems like this issue was put in a box for decades and warped. What a detailed magazine. Far too much to edit. Great pages and color.
#2; a 4.0 copy and a 5.0 copy. March 1957. The all-black cover is impossible to find in decent shape

Check out my 100% response and the other great old comics I have available! There is a reason for all my likes: fair pricing and great grading standards. I grade all books personally and have been at it since 1974. I have sold many silver age sets and golden age to happy customers.

Postage will be free to USA addresses as long as you pay the $1000 I am asking and not take a discount.If shipped to an overseas (and Canada) address, you'll need to pay for customs. I'm charging $20 handling for overseas because I have to go to the post office.
