I used to frequent the used bookstores and flea markets in my area. These seem to show up frequently. At one time, I had 4 copies.

 

Not at the flea markets I've been to; just fleas...

Nice books!

One of my most favorite L.B. Cole covers:

 

Cover Proof:

 

Prelim Cover Recreation Sketch:

Picked up in the Estate Auction a couple years ago

 

Cover Recreation:

Picked up in an auction last year - was commissioned and owned by Bob Overstreet

Nice! I haven't seen that cover before.

I don't think any of his Magazine covers have been posted:

 

original Cover Art:

Awesome!

This is an upgrade so, I have an undercopy available.

 

Haha, love the title!

Just got this today:

 

He also did the 4th Edition

 

Very cool!

Here's my first contribution to this awesome thread finally! My very first Cole cover. Found it on Feebay for cheep and couldn't resist. Its very tight and most importantly, I love it!

 

Crime Fighting Detective #16

 

Nice book! Congrats!

Since someone posted their WIT & WISDOM copy and I scanned my pulp / digest books last night I thought I'd share. I posted these before but now these are my scans (I scanned 1 2x):

 

 

 

Beautiful! I love the covers, especially Murder on the Mountain!

Here's one of my favorite.

 

Nice looking book Jamie! Congrats! I'm still amazed how much L B Cole covers draw me in.

So...we're looking at bears, chickens and romance covers...fine...here's one of mine:

 

 

and another...

 

Nice covers. He was such a great artist!

I think you should start your own thread! Lead off with the chicken!

It seems we have a new contestant! Step on up Monsoon, the water's just fine! Welcome to the boards!

 

Here's one you won't see every day...

 

I love this cover Jamie.

First post! Here's my latest L.B. Cole. More to come.

Awesome cover! Welcome to the boards.

Just arrived, and me happy! Now I just need a #8 and #20!

 

Nice! Looks great.

Well done! Another spaceship cover in the collection! Really nice colors on that one.

Thanks Jamie!

Hi All,

Wow! I've missed a lot of great additions. Congrats to all the great pickups.

For some reason I'm no longer getting notified when there is a new post here.

Here is my latest addition:

Now, I can concentrate on a Contact 12.

This one FINALLY completes my run on the title. I'd been waiting for a copy that I liked for a while and scored this on x-mas night!

 

 

So Santa was good to me, but didn't get me the scanner I wanted. I'll have to start shopping for that now...

Congrats Jamie! It is always a great feeling to complete a run. A great looking book with nice colors.

Got this today, just in time for Chrismas

 

Special thanks to Phil at Metro for making this happen.

 

Beautiful colors! Congrats.

Thanks guys! I am smiling out loud here.

Finally! I can now join this club. Here is my first LB Cole cover and it fits perfectly in my collection of robot/sci-fi covers.

I'll post this in another thread or 2, but here's my current display!

 

Awesome display Jamie. Nice books indeed! Happy Holidays!

I purchased two Caps from Jake. Excellent, smooth transaction. Top notch. I'm very happy with the books. Thanks Jake!

Purchased Heavy Metal 1 from Eric. Great transaction, communications and packaging! The book was shipped quickly and securely. Nice book too. Thanks Eric.

Best,

Paul

So I have you to thank for bidding it up! j/k... I was hoping you weren't bidding against me. I'd hate to take it out of another boardie's hands. I mean... I would... but ya know...

 

Thanks!

No worries. I put in my max bid (which was way lower than it went for) and then I was away from my computer until after the auction ended. I took a shot. Someone else was bidding it up...

I posted this in the Sept ComicConnect thread, but there was no way I wasn't going to post it here as well. I know I've relaxed on purchases lately, as this thread dropped to page 4! Well, I'll fix that! I finally completed by LB Cole's sci-fi covers, as I have a Contact 12 and a Captain Flight 11, Captain Aero 25, and now I'll have in my greedy hands a Captain Aero 26!!!

 

Jamie!

I was bidding on that book as well, but you beat me by a long shot.

Congrats! I'm so glad it went to you.
