Welcome to the club. That is one of my favorite covers. Congratulations. Not an easy book to find. (thumbs u

 

I can't wait until the registry has an anti-commie set type. It would be interesting to see the cool books that can be entered.

Thanks, but I've been in the club nearly 15 years. This is my third copy.

I suggested an Anti-Communist registry set a while back. It was before the cut-off, but it never made it on the list. Maybe because I only gave rough list of the major books it should contain. Maybe if we put together a more comprehensive list they would actually create it?

the short story about this book: a friend of mine found this flash comics 100 on a flee market in vienna/austria. it cost him 1 euro and he gave it to me as a gift because he knows that i love golden age books. the real interesting historical aspect of this book is the "US-Zone" stamp in the right corner. as you know, after WWII vienna was split in 4 different areas/zones which where controlled by the US, UK, Russian and French army's. this book must have been shipped to the US-Zone where a GI bought it, and later left it when he went back home. it is really unbelievable that it survived that long and it makes me curious, if other books have survived here in austria.

 

 

That is a very cool item. (thumbs u I'm aware of the zones because of the classic American noir film, "The Third Man".

The Third Man is technically a British film. The production company was British, as was Carol Reed, the director, and Graham Greene, the writer.

It's one of my favorites.

It kinda glows!

That's from the kryptonite...

Just arrived moments ago...

I had been looking for a halfway decent copy of this one for while. It doesn't turn up very often.

 

 

 

 

Very nice. I don't recall ever seeing that book before.

Recent arrivals.

 

Last but not least (thanks to a fellow boardie)

 

You're welcome (thumbs u

All-Story for me. 1st appearance of one of the most famous fictional characters in the world? Umm, yeah, I'll take it! It would go very nicely with my first appearances of Conan and Buck Rogers.

I love finding packages at my door. These two arrived today. I think they're pretty

 

 

I love these high grade Dell Giant painted covers! (thumbs u

 

(I'm pretty sure you outbid me on both - were these from Heritage or Ebay?)

FeeBay pickups

Just arrived today. Published in 1958, it's right on the cusp of the Silver Age but I thought you guys would still like to see it.

Great. I get to follow Detective 1-38, and all I'm packin' is Doll Man. If anybody cares, they're Church/Mile High copies.

 

What a nice display of books! Congratulations! Ultra high grade to boot! You just recieved all of these in one shot?

Thanks! Yes, I got them all at the same time.

Yeah, the grades are pretty amazing. Five with White pages, three with Off-White to White.

Not by me. I just got them today. But I don't remember seeing them before anywhere.

Just arrived today. Church/Mile High copies.

Recent arrival

 

Baker Cover Flyin' Jenny #2...

Great cover! Is it me, or is there a little bit of Feldstein influence in this Baker cover?

Another recent collection of All Flash Comics that I am enjoying, and a few bonus books that came with the Batman/Detective collection

 

All-Flash, all the time

Have fun reading!

Posted this in the group shot thread as well, but hey, this is the Superman thread! Recently added the 13 and 20 to the group.

 

 

 

Back to "yellow" covers......how am I gonna get me a #11 like THAT one?....Man, #11 simply is one the best Supes covers EVER (Action or Superman) !!!!

 

I just sold my copy a few weeks ago.

 

you got a heck of a price for it too, but then again, it was a very nice copy.

 

Superman #11 is a favorite of mine as well fish.

#11 is a favorite of mine too. One of the first ones I bought.

Could be, Ciorac. I bought it from a LCS here in Philly, but the price tag was an old Graham Crackers label, so the book has been around.

 

I love tracing the travels of books. I sold a run of GL's that included that issue to Jamie at Chicago a few years back.

Truly a small world. Rest assured, your book has found a good home.

Here's an updated group shot of my early Supermans. The 13 and 20 are new arrivals.

Excellent pick up of a very cool book, RF (the Church copy of GL 5 is "missing")

"Missing" as in there wasn't one in the collection?
