CUENTOS DE BRUJAS No. 40 * Mexican WITCHES TALES No. 20 Publisher: La Prensa Date Published: February, 1955 Description: Fine/VF (7.0). Some color rubs to spine, 1/2" split to bottom spine, super-tiny crease to top right corner of front cover, faint vertical crease visible in raking light. Cream pages. Gorgeous copy. Mexican edition of Witches Tales #20 (Harvey, 1953). Color interior. Stories translated into Spanish. Cover: Uncredited. Art: Lee Elias, Howard Nostrand, Bob Powell, Jack Sparling. CGC Census: No slabbed copies. GPAnalysis: No reported sales. Harvey horror stories exported to Mexico to terrify our neighbors. In one nutty yarn, a mad scientist has a "beef" with society and attacks civilization with a herd of killer cows. In English it's amusing enough, but translated into funnybook Spanish, it's sublime. The uncredited cover may have been inspired by Wally Wood's hit-and-run cover to Shock SuspenStories #4 (Aug.-Sept., 1952). Enjoying the Sale? Order a fully-illustrated softcover catalogue for 30 bucks. Only about 100 copies were printed and they're going fast. To reserve a copy, contact PBA's Director of Comics: ivan@pbagalleries.com.
