The Ghost Gallery Archive #01-#18 (from Jumbo Comics - Fiction House Comics) Complete Series

The Ghost Gallery first appeared in Jumbo Comics #42 (Aug 1942)
 published by Fiction House and was a continuing feature until
the final issue #167 in March 1953.
Ghost Gallery was an anthology series of supernatural stories.
The host of the tales would often recount stories from his 'files', thus giving some
continuity to the series.
Quite a few of the stories had crime elements, and would have been considered
as crime stories, except for a small supernatural component.
