Primetime replied to mr.schomburg's topic in Pulp Magazines
Continuing my young journey into pulps with my favorite Timely artist, Alex Schomburg. Startling Stories (Sept., 1939) - 1st Schomburg Sci-Fi pulp cover 🚀 Pretty corny, cool image of 13, big headed aliens 👽 robbing a graveyard 🪦 There was a cash prize contest asking fans to send in letters explaining the cover (note: the deadline date of Sept 7, 1939 - that would have been the same time period that the NOV printing of Marvel Comics 1 was being printed/released and just after the OCT copies had sold out.) Here’s a photo of the Startling next to Schomburg’s 1st cover work for Timely - Daring Mystery Comics 1 - which was released a few short months after in late October, 1939. -
3.0 - 3.5 Nice JAN 8 date stamp on the upper BC. That’s the first time I’ve seen a date stamp that late on a Flash 105. Typically, if it’s stamped, it is usually within a few day before Christmas, 1958.

Over the years I’ve learned that overnight shipping is better than registered. I know registered supposedly goes from lock box to lock box and is slower and more secure, but I feel the “longer” an important package is in the transport system so to speak, the higher chance of something bad happening to it. And CI insurance covers up to $60k per package with overnight shipping so that solves the coverage part. I’d rather it get there overnight three linger for several days or weeks in transit.

That’s the copy on loan from the owner making its rounds with that marvel museum. It was displayed in Seattle for awhile and now the museum is in the Carolinas(?)

Here’s the other pulp… January, 1928 Dave Smith of Fantasy Illustrated calls this a radiator robot 🤖 Nonetheless, it’s another wild Frank R. Paul cover that @Ameriinsists is a semi swipe/reverse image of Paul’s famous Marvel Comics 1 cover from 1939 (The Greatest Comic Book ever published)… Pretty cool if that was Paul’s slightest intention 👍🏽

Received my first two, ginormous (8” x 11”) bedsheet AS pulps in the mail today…. March, 1928 Classic 🌙moonbeam🌙 death 💀 ray cover by Frank R. Paul. I love the dragon 🐉 on the chest of Mr. Fu-Manchu, the dragons 🐉 along the side of the building, and the ninja 🥷 looking 👀 dudes. The moonbeam of death appears to be powered by that massive gem 💎 Thanks @Amerifor showing it to me. I was immediately hooked. @BitterOldMan do you like it?

Marvel 1,4,5 and Daring 1 don’t have any ads. The rest I am not sure. -

For the Red Circle Pulps, yes. But for Timely Comics, I don’t believe so…only have Marvels 1-5 and Darings 1-3 that predate or out concurrently with Mystic 1. -
