Well, at last I seem to be able to post a scan correctly!

I keep deleting my failures. Thanks for the encouragement - I'll get there!

After a number attempts I can still only post as an attachment. The scans I've tried to show directly are on my PC. I browse from here and the file attaches. But I can't find a URL to copy and paste. Well, better than nothing!

Another try:

No, it's not worked. I'll try again.

Here it is:

That's a great White Mountain Strange Tales! I'll try to post an issue.

I've been trying out my new scanner all morning. Scans do look better for books out of their mylars but I've only dared try with modern books. I'm going to carry on scanning all non-moderns in their mylars just for safety.

Thanks for the advice! I'll try to post some more scans later on.

I don't know why the book has posted as an attachment instead of a straight image? I'll post some more if I can improve my technique (I'm trying out my new scanner!)

This is the first time I have tried to post a scan; hope it works!

That looks like it has a pretty cool story.

 

Isn't that story in Batman from the 30s to the 70s? One summer when I was seven or eight I would walk to the library daily to read that book. Of course we lived next door...

The story in the Tec #205 may very well be in Batman 30's to 70's. That book like yourself was read from my local library when I was twelve or thirteen. Those color cover photo's started me to collect Batman comics. That Penguin in the bird cage cover hit me like a ton of bricks. I had to have as many as possible!! In those days I didn't know any covers to Batman or Detective comics, so going to conventions and looking at a pile of Bat Golden Age was amazing. Of course in those days a Golden Age book if you could find them at a show would set you back $5.00 to $20.00 bucks Here are some Jokers from the 50's. [/img] [/img]

Amazing to realize that Detective Comics #180 and #193 are the only Joker covers of that title throughout the whole of the 1950s (not counting #168). I am lucky enough to have the Spokane copies of both of these books.
