  1. I was going to post this in the "Confessions of a Crack Addict" thread, but figured Timely geeks would get more utils out of this than just a good ol' fashioned crackhead. :baiting:

     

    It was an absolute joy going through this book the other night after I freed it from its synthetic coffin to breathe a little. (Sorry Alan, I just couldn't wait.) It was like sipping a nice glass of scotch. Enjoy!:

    WOW!! That's a beautiful Chicago copy.Makes me wonder why on earth George ever decided to sell them.

    I remembered that Wolverton's Rockman and Jack Frost were in issue 1,and thought(incorrectly)that Wolverton did the art on the 1st issue only.I have never owned a USA 1 or 2,but I do have a small batch that starts at 6.

  3. I already posted this in the Gerber 7 - and - higher thread.

    I have to admit I haven't looked at all 332 pages of this Timely thread yet, so there is probably a better example of this book already up, but just in case....

    Forget the Larson,Chicago,and even the Church copy.I absolutely adore this well loved copy.Thanks so much for sharing.Any chance you have any other books from this collection?

     

    You just like it 'cause it's the "Russell" copy :baiting:

     

    Exactly.Just imagine if there were a Pep 22 with a nice cursive Steve an the front cover!!

  5. Nice grouping on short order, Scrooge... :applause:

    remember the doublemint gum commerical from way back?

    here are "three runs, three runs, three runs in one!"

    just closed two of them in c'town; literally from A to Z.

    Wow!! Now that you've removed the Timely blinders,there's no telling what run you might complete next.I just hope it's not something I'm chasing..and on that note,stay away from Zips & Wonderworlds :devil:

  6. a few more of these; just stuck this over on timely thread, but it's a fit here as well.
