  1. @50YrsCollctngCmcs Thanks a bunch. I can say the same for your collection, too. You have some items I have never seen before
  2. This is a gift subscription form which was sent to current subscribers of Mickey Mouse Magazine. These are somewhat rare to find with the original mailing envelope and there are different versions for each of the years they were used. Hake's Auction has sold a few of these.
  3. Here are my D53 Disney/Hostess cards associated with Mickey Mouse Magazine. Donald Duck in a red sailor suit....
  4. These are awesome. I have been searching for a couple of Hostess D53 cards associated with Mickey Mouse Magazine. There are 12 total in the set and I need uncut Donald Duck and Clara Cluck. I have a set, but these two I mentioned have the coupons clipped
  5. Mickey Mouse Magazine #1 along side an originally framed store advertisement.....slightly different sizes
  6. I saw drgoldage's punch books and thought I would add some of my own with the gigantic Donald Duck punch book. Note the gigantic Dell Peter Pan comic book for scale
  7. First ever ANYWHERE appearance of Donald Duck
  8. I thought I might add to this and thanks to drgoldage...you have so many nice things to share
  9. Thought I might add these for interest: MMM dairy giveaways, paint books, 1st anywhere appearance of donald duck in "The Wise Little Hen" and the gigantic punchbooks (shown with the gigantic Dell Giants Peter Pan for scale) I hope everyone enjoys
  10. 50yrs....here are a few of my nicer ones What looks like a dual pic of two #1's is actually a #1 and a store advertisement in the original frame. Note the slight size difference between the two.
  11. So Nice! I can't help but admire the #9 with Mickey and Minnie......it is the only issue I need to complete the entire run.
  12. >>>to hoffitmus prime "Sadly it was missing a few pages most importantly the Snow White centerfold." If you were to submit this to CGC, it would possibly come back as "I" for incomplete and "0.5" for Poor in blue label. It would also have the possibility of coming back as green label "Q" for qualified. The qualified values for comics are VERY subjective. A qualified grade can be for the cover loose at one staple. In your case, several missing pages, it would certainly be much less desireable and less valuable as a result. The qualified grade would be for the books current condition if the defect was otherwise not there. Another MMM vol 1 number 5 is listed on ebay with missing pages. Its apparent condition would likely grade at 6.0-7.0 (Overstreet PG for a 6.0 is $477, which is ridiculously low) and has only 1 bid for the opening price of $75 and was listed 3 days ago, 3 days left to bid. This is the closest example I can find which fits your situation. It is assured if the listing on ebay was for a complete copy, the price would be in the hundreds by now and likely soar during the final seconds of bidding. There are other examples of qualified graded MMM's which have languished for weeks with defects such as loose covers or holes punched and the buy-it-now prices are between 10-20% of the non-qualified prices.
  13. I am now more convinced the "Little Mickey" logo had high significance when originally printed. I have seen a copy of the 100-page issue Volume 2 Number 3, with the "Little Mickey" located near the "E" in "Mouse" in the title instead of near the "M" in "Mickey". The cover layout had to be rearranged since the normal location of the "Little Mickey" was printed with a black background on this issue, which would have obviously obscured the "Little Mickey" printed in black like the previous issues. If this logo had little importance, it would have been omitted or the color changed to something other than black and kept in the same spot as the previous and subsequent issues. However, the "Little Mickey" logo was kept in black ink but moved to another spot on this issue. In other words, this demonstrates the "Little Mickey" logo was likely required to be printed on some issues with black ink........sounds like a legal/contract item.
  14. I suppose the notion of having the variant editions to complete the MMM run could cause the obsessive collector to reassess what an entire run of MMM's really is now. Let the search begin???
