  1. Noticed a couple things in the Pedigree field. I see a few pedigree collections in the field that are no longer recognized by CGC (Circle 8, Edenwald, Mile High II, Sherwood, Toledo, and maybe some others). And I couldn't find Davis Crippen “D” Copy on the list.
  2. My goodness, a very different color scheme to your copy than mine.
  3. from creepy Nazi clown with a hatchet to one with a knife:
  4. from Crystal Skull to the Purple Cranium (the Red Skull's spectacularly inept nephew that lost his job at the Berlin Applebee's, so the Skull bought him a new suit, set him up with some minions, and gave him a job and then the guy isn't sure that dropping 5000 lbs. on poor ol' Bucky is gonna do the job, so he has his henchmen add spikes to the slab, but that gives Cap time to get to the secret lair and...well, you get the gist. Herr Skull was not happy and it really made for a somewhat tense family Christmas that year.)
  5. Very cool stuff They look like "Horsemen of Apocalypse". If so, this seems to be a somewhat recurring theme in super-hero comic books: I seem to recall there is a Timely comic with the same idea. I can't think of a Timely with a Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse cover. The three I'm familiar with are All Star #24 and:
  6. My Chinese history is a little sketchy, but the cover appears to depict Chiang Kia-shek and his wife Soong Mei-ling (also known as Madame Chiang). He led Chinese opposition to the Japanese during WWII, but lost the subsequent Chinese civil war to Mao Tse-tung's communist forces. He fled mainland China to Taiwan where he continued as president of Taiwan for a number of years.
  7. Yeah, it's got a pretty bad spine split. Cover is barely attached.
