Is that an Archie Shower curtain in the back?

I have gained so much appreciation for all things Archie since I started this thread, that I don't care what's posted as long as it's Archie related. I've loved seeing these Australian editions. This thread actually started as just an "Archie 1" club. Then "Archie 2-10" were added. Then "Archie 50" was added. There's just SO many to like. I personally love Betty & Veronica 40 & 41.

I liked his Tomb of Dracula.

If any of you Archie collectors are interested in Australian editions here's the link to the guy I bought them from on ebay. He's got 63 Archie related comics left from the 1950s: https://www.ebay.com/sch/Comics/63/m.html?ssPageName=&_ssn=jireihe-0

I saw this in an Archie comic.

I love finding this kind of thing..... Here is a closeup of Archie 47 cover, and then a closeup of Wilbur 35 cover. Anything look familiar.

I don't think I ever posted this beauty.

Look where Reggie is looking then look where Archie is looking. What a couple of hound dogs . Great cover!

I was wondering if there was an Aussie version of this. Sweet! It would have been hilarious if it was a Reggie comic with Reggie in the Photo (now that we know the Aussies edited the artwork for some of the covers)

If you count the lipstick marks Archie looks like he got smooched 1 more time in his cover than Reggie did. Lucky guy! That Australian cover doesn't really fit Reggie's personality. And I don't recall V ever wanting to kiss R, but maybe I'm wrong. I really love this type of "Find". I'll bet if you were to scour the Australian Archies you'd find a lot of little differences like this.

I have a feeling he wasn't paid and didn't even know about it.

I wonder what Bob Montana thought of that change to his art?
