I do happen to own that Paul Gustavson WWII poster. It is a prized possession of mine. Btw, amazing thread!

And, ultimately, What? Or even one or two steps beyond that? (Perhaps I’m going too far?) - What are the rarest romance comics? - What are the romance comics? - What are the comics? - What are the? - What are? - What? - ? -

Oh no, I am so shocked and sorry to hear this. RIP Ed. I had numerous conversations with Ed over many years, and he was such a stand up guy. I so trusted and appreciated his input, judgments, guidance and support. My deepest condolences to his family and to you, Rick, and everyone at Heritage.

Flying Cadet 17

This book was quite the sensation at California Comic Con last weekend. A small booth had it (another copy of this book, not the copy in this sale thread). Several big-time dealers came by, looked at the book, and expressed shock that they had not known about this book. These big dealers kept showing the book to other people, most of whom also hadn't seen it or known about it.

This was quite a let-down. CGC itself, when it grades this book, puts this right on the label. Quoting from the front of the CGC label: "Bare-breasted woman cover".

Hah! The very first time I saw this cover, they were one of the first things I noticed. There are so incredibly few comics like this that were ever made, that got away with it, that it was certainly eye-catching.
