Get Marwood & I

Lost a bullet but gained some gunsmoke. Love it

Stairgasaurus

Just for fun, and accepting all the obvious data limitations, I plotted all the copies I could find with arrival dates on them to see if they gave an indication of the printing order and, therefore, how a new pricing 'cut off' point could have occurred midway through the printing of the twelve January 1962 cover dated issues, to indicate how the repriced versions might have come about. That was a long sentence. Anyway, here's what it shows....

Kid Montana, starring Mr Fantastic

Morning The three repriced Marvels have been on my Get Carter list since I started this thread but rarely come up in the UK. So I was initially excited to see this one pop up on eBay YooKay the other week, but then a bit deflated when I saw the 'orrible corner chunk missing: "Typical", I thought and decided to pass, even though I have been known to buy less structurally appealing comics elsewhere (or as they are sometimes otherwise known, Charlton UK Price Variants). Would you Adam and Eve it though, five minutes later this second one turns up like the proverbial London Routemaster: OK, it still wouldn't win any 9.8 beauty contests, but it's complete and I'm taken with it. And nice to see the Kid managing to doge those bullets again, on the cover. Not that he needs to of course - dodge them, I mean - as it's clear that no one else on Earth at the time could hit the proverbial barn door from three feet. So there's nothing to be a'feared of there. I've used the word proverbial twice in this post so far, and I kind of like it. A nice bonus date stamp too: At least it would be if you could decipher it. 10c inside, still: That's just lazy, isn't it. One down, two to go

Love the date stamp

Twice, if you don't mind

OK, wish me luck...

OK, wish me luck...

May as well go for the full set then, and do the US Price Font Variants too I wish

Boy, did I have a lot of fun Googleating for that I think it's the June 1963 issue: https://wonderclub.com/magazines/adult_magazine_single_page-print.php?u=GENT196306

That's it, The Gent I have a few examples of T&P stamped copies in my magazines file. I'm off for my dinner - back later to see if we can date the issue in that picture.

Cor, look at that. I think I have a scan of that magazine - GJ I think - with a Teepee stamp. Will dig it out later and see how the dates align

I've rather rudely snagged a second pence copy I was on the look out for a reasonably priced one so I could place one in my 'Top 20 UKPV' box and one in my 'L Miller Indicia' box. Here she be: Not too bad, eh. Got tree of 'em now

Niiiice. I wish I'd kept mine now, which I deslabbed: What are the ones you are missing, TM? We could keep an eye out for you...

Me Tonto Kimosabi, me go and catchee baddie!

Hi-Yo-9d! And away!

@awe4one Jim, I saw this one on eBay which is not asterisked as confirmed on your site - it shows it has the AS wrap, but no MJI: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304398597193?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2763.l2648
