Spine split about 40%, cover loose at top staple, spine roll, nicks, edgewear, typical Harvey blurring to reds on front and back covers. Cream pages with tan edges. Cover: Lee Elias. Art: Joe Certa, Mo Marcus, Rudy Palais, Abe Simon. GPAnalysis: No reported sales in the grade. Lowest graded copy: A 4.5 sold for $250 in May 2020. Chamber of Chills #6 features multiple ads for ladies' fashion, hair products, brassieres, and a correspondence course in "How to Write Thrilling Love Letters," which suggests that Harvey's marketing department, if they had one, thought women comprised a prime demographic for this title. In between the ads are stories in which monsters melt the flesh from a woman's skull and tiny severed heads chew a man to death; both events are depicted with a queasy lack of restraint. Meanwhile, in a curious reversal, Tomb of Terror's ads skew towards lads: "Now any adventure loving boy can build Da Vinci's flying wings with just ordinary carpenter's tools"; "Do You Want a SUCCESS-WINNING VOICE?"; "COMBAT ACTION Plastic TOYS"; "Have a Wallop-Packed BODY OF SUPER STRENGTH." A deluxe limited edition of 12 hardcover catalogues is available, in addition to a small number of softcovers. 400 lots, fully illustrated. Fun reference, great keepsake. Softcover $40, deluxe hardcover with dust jacket and limitation plate $200. Eight of the 12 hardcovers are pre-ordered and the rest will go quickly, so reserve yours now.
