  1. Scored this book from the MotorCity booth on Sunday. Writing or marks on the cover don't bother me nearly as much as creases do, and this book is nice and tight. The writing on this cover says......" Read (Rd.) page 57 for a laugh" and I can only guess that some household had this book layin around during the war years and maybe were comunicating to other family members what they thought was funny. I could be way off.....but thats my story and I'm stickin to it. I've included scans of pg. 57 for all of you curious types :grin:

    I had a hard time NOT thinking of the 3 stooges when I saw this :grin: :grin: :grin:

     

     

  2. Here is a few more books that I just picked up.

    I notice that there are not that many Action covers with Nazis on the front, which makes the ones that do show them extra awesome !! Flame throwers....bah. Those Ratzis are about to get what for I think.

     

    I still need this issue of Det. Gotta love anything with the Joker on it. (thumbs u

  3. But I am also working on reader runs of Dell Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse books that I can share with my son. He loves for me to read comics to him and the Duck and Mouse books are his favorite.

     

    Have you got this one Steve ? I have loved this story since I first owned this book back in the early 70's.

  4. A good day at the letter box today. Not being able to afford the big ticket items or really high grades, I'm plugging away at WDC&S 50-111 (the 1940s issues I can reasonably aspire to on my budget) in 6.0-8.0 I've gotta say that this is working for me. I'm loving these books.

     

    You have to love those Walt Kelly covers - this is one of the best and has the first appearance of Gladstone Gander as well.

    This one has just turned 60 - I can only hope that I'll be as well preserved when I get there.

    Those books are really nice AJD. That grade is right up my alley. Clean, flat, and UNSLABBED !! :grin:

  5. The hands are nicely done on Woozy and there's a Cole feel to the figures but it's still hard to be certain as he could have been just partly involved. Can't seak for the interior but I like the cover.

     

    Yea. I agree. I think this cover is VERY Cole like. He has a certain way of drawing Woozy that is distinctive. I think its easier to see Cole in a Woozy drawing than a Plas drawing actually.

    Just came in on the 3:14 mail delivery. I'm not sure if this one is entirely Cole......or even Cole at all.....but I like it. I have Ron Goularts "Focus on Jack Cole".....and in the list of credits, it says.....Cole ? / Kotsky ? I really can't tell either. Some pics/ panels look alot like Coles work....and some not so much. Wonder if it was a quick pencil job by Cole and finished by someone else? Anyways....I like the story. Its a good "feel" read. And I really like the condition and book

  7. Just in from the May CL auction:

     

    Great Police books! (and nice Green Lama JJShaffer!) (thumbs u

     

     

    I just won this from Heritage's Sunday auction, and am happy to finally have a copy (even if the condition isn't great). :cloud9:

    I've never seen one of those before !! Wow that cover is pretty shocking. The dead bodies and that soldier with the bandages is brutal.

  8. And the real sad part is that this is only my new stuff I just bought. :cry:

     

    I still have to somehow fit over twice as much somewhere. ???

     

    And I'm worried about the floor collapsing :eek:
