Then you'll probably like these too, from another Silver Starr book.

Love Stanley Pitt as Australia's Alex Raymond! Thanks for posting scarce Australian comics with choice b/w interiors.

No problem, I'm happy to share them. And, yes, Pitt is very obviously influenced by Raymond, though there are worse things to be! Since you enjoyed those, here are a couple of pages from this colour edition and one other I had a scan of.

If I had a copy, I'd add mine to the Stanley Pitt thread I started that immediately dropped off page 1.  Maybe I should have put it in Comics General rather than GA?  ADJ is the primary contributor there!  Thank you!  I do have another Pitt cover to share....  I'll need to take a photo.

Maybe so they could copyright the name?  "Star" would be too common.

Maybe they were mindful of him being seen as an R sole?

1/- is one shilling. A dime, more or less.
