Item Details
Description
Heading:
Author:
Title: WITCHES TALES No. 19
Place Published:
Publisher:Harvey [Indicia: Witches Tales, Inc.]
Date Published: June, 1953
Description:

CGC certified: VG- (3.5). Off-white pages. Cover: Lee Elias. Stories: Bob Powell, Howard Nostrand, Lee Elias, Jack Sparling. Overstreet: "EC swipe." GPAnalysis: A 3.5 sold for $360 in April 2020.

Classic devil cover by Lee Elias. This ish introduces Howard Nostrand's filler-page series, "Mother Mongoose's Nursery Crimes," a rip-off of EC's own series of "Grim Fairy Tales." Harvey's horror-humor hybrid "Nursery Crimes" are an interesting harbinger of the company's post-Code success publishing kid-friendly supernatural stories. In a sense, the grinning Satan on this mag's cover can be considered the spiritual forefather of Casper the Friendly Ghost, Wendy the Good Little Witch, and Hot Stuff the Li'l Devil.
