"[Chamber of Chills #24] is the worst condition Harvey comic in my collection. Since I've been trying to upgrade it for nearly a decade, I have to suspect that there is a scarcity of high-grade copies of it, for reasons completely unknown to me. As far as I know, no 'warehouse find' copies of this particular issue have ever emerged." — George Suarez, Tales To Terrible To Tell #8. NEC: 1993, p. 38.
