This next one is a rarity a buck rogers cut out adventure book

Opened another box as I reorganize my comic room some of these may be duplicates but different ones that I’ve posted before liked coloring books paint books etc

I bought my first whiz 1 when I was 13 back in 1973 acquired others later

No signatures that I know of , I bought this already in a case

If still available I will take the capt marvel 22 missing first. 4 wraps

This is among my top three comic covers I can’t imagine this didn’t sell out on the Newstands back in the day

This next one is restored still brighten’s my day when ever I have it out . I started looking for older comics late 1960s but just didn’t see golden age in Omaha Nebraska or Las Vegas except the occasional New Funnies . The 1970s came around had a bit more money and went to a few shows in Los Angeles and wow was there old comics …I started finding a few here and there

Still reorganizing 4 years after the move a few more earlier detectives was looking for these 1n 1970s prices a bit more affordable then

Back cover nicer than the front , I’ve thought about getting it re-slabbed and your arguments highlight why . Thank you for the sage advice !

A great story reminds me of one of my own .I was living in Las Vegas Nevada about 1973 a teenager myself and Tom Heiner proprietor of the local and only comic book shop at the time “Friendly Neighborhood comic book store “ decided to take a bunch of us teenagers to a Los Angeles comic show one Saturday morning . We all piled into his Volkswagen van and made it to the show early before it had opened . My dad had surprised me just before we left with a gift of 400 dollars and told me to have a great time . My allowance has been 5 dollars a week so instead of a months savings of 20 I had a fortune. The show was great so many dealers all with books I had barely heard about let alone seen . I hadn’t been there 10 minutes when laying flat on a table was a Submariner 1 he wanted 400 for it way high for the time but I didn’t know or care and walked away with the book.My first Timely , I still have the book and the memory of that day . I found a pile of bargains for the remaining 20.00 and on the way home that night we all displayed what we had found and exchanged stories of the day . A thank you to Tom if he is still out there !!!

A classic

Found a few more still digging

Great colors and composition on this scoop 2

I hope they checked Bucky’ s blood type first some how don’t think they match, better find Hulk . Jack Kirby signed this one couldn’t resist buying

Bucky’s in trouble but good old Cap won’t let Nazi henchmen or A few Egyptian mummies stop him

Will take Batman 135 at 40percent off if still available

Nope on the detective 35 looked great but came out of bound volume , I had a nice full size coverless copy I married the two then had the original cover / back cover restored to full size by adding paper to all edges . It’s gorgeous but restored on all edges

Hitting safety box Saturday will post a few earlier ones and a 38

This one is just gorgeous but has color touch /edge mending
