Australian golden (and a few silver) age comics

A selection of Australian comics from 1938 - February 1966

These are all from my collection. Most of them are reprints of American comics, but there are some Australian originals in here as well. Check out the Crimson Comet by Australian artist John Dixon - one of my favourites. The Silver Flash books have some great covers (and not so great interiors, but you're spared that here) and are well worth checking out.

Australia used a British-style money system until February 1966. The prices translate roughly like this:

6d = sixpence = 5c

1/- = one shilling = 10c

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is amazing.  Thank you for sharing.

Do you know if there is a database anywhere that lists all the Austrailian reprints? 

I find it difficult to find covers I am looking for at times, because they are often found on different titles.  For example I have found that the cover of a US edition of Action Comics 247 can be found on two Australian books; Superman 111 and Superman 143.  However, if I did not know that, it would be very difficult to find that cover.

Do you know if there is an "easy" way to find Austrailian books with covers matching their US counterparts?

Thank you so much for sharing there covers here.  Truly an amazing collection.  Congratulations.
