Hey Steve !!!!

Very nice, very nice. I'm surprized the boards aren't going crazy over this book Russ. I guess it can only be that they are all envious ...

Well, let's jump start this thread with a bang.

 

A little book I picked up in a deal I made this past weekend. This is my girlfriend Louise holding it for me as I take a picture of it.

 

 

This is a scan of the book without the lady.

 

 

oh, my goodness. oh, my. oh, dear.

OH S____!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can say that again

I had that one years and years ago, but don't remember the details of the story.

 

I think I traded mine away on a Freakies cereal box ?!?!

No caped heroes, but the 'back covers' are terrific and the books themselves hard core Timelys....

 

 

 

Thanks for sharing Jon. You just put 2 more books on my want list. Chasing the Timely funny animal and humor books can be a challenge, especially if you want them in grade. I love that Joker #2

As long as it is yellow and red, it can be just about anything and I like it. But these two, make it extra special

 

I'd appreciate a pm if that Subby decides to relocate. Bill Everett is an all time favorite and that cover shows why.

 

Thanks Jimmy. To round out my trio of yellow and red Timely's, I present another of your favorites

 

 

Another nice one Billbo!! Any work on that gem?

it's not hi-grade enough for you, big-shot.

 

Surely you're confusing me with another of the Geeks .....

I picked this one up not too long ago - love the mace to Tojo's head and the look on Hitler's and Mussolini's faces:

 

 

 

Nice grab!!! Despite the fact that Knuckles is about to walk with a limp, I think his aim is going to make that "flail" feel like a scalp massage. Great book

Here is some close-ups of my new yellow and red friends.

 

 

 

Nice pick-ups Billbo!!!! You gotta admit, it's pretty hard to resist a pretty Timely, even for an old DC dog like you .....

Merry Christmas Jimbo. Sounds like you are having a lovely one indeed

 

 

Right back atcha Billbo. We are indeed having a fine Christmas. I trust you'll pass along a hug to the female Ponseti's for me?!?! (thumbs u

Here's a book that I won just prior to the Twin Cities geekfest, but it didn't arrive until after the 2 southern geeks left town. One of Billy's favorites to be sure

 

not an easy book at all, jimmy. it was my last one, and one of ricky's missing two before he liquidated the run. very well done young man.

Thanks Billy-boy. I hope you are having a dandy Christmas!!! My lovely daughter and I are watching cartoons and I took a little break to post some books.

 

and a wonderful holidays to you, too, jimmy. now lean over and smooch that darling girl and tell it was from the elder geek, who is still not quite over having not seen her in october.

 

It has been done and it has been said. She voiced an annoyance of her own to the not seeing you as well. In addition, she is requesting my return to the sofa for more cartoons and snacks (our turkey sandwiches have been consumed). That's my red and yella contribution for today ..... I'm out for now ....... MERRY CHRISTMAS FELLOW BOARD MEMBERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This one arrived with the #7. My first dealing with comicconnect went as smooth as possible. (thumbs u

Woo-Hoo!! Way to go Jimmy, you sly dog.What a gorgeous book

(thumbs u Thanks Russell, you should be getting an up close look at it over Christmas (thats right, 2 geeks that live within 8 miles of each other: go ahead .... be envious ... it's ok). I think I can sense a mini geekfest brewing ....

Those are nice Billy-boy. I just got this little gem in from the last Comiclink auction.

 

a lotta funny book there, geek. this and that mm 49 sure did some sprucing up of the cgc box this week, i'd say. way to go jimmy.

Thanks Billy-boy, sprucing has indeed been done. I was gonna save it and show you the next time we get together (you know how Russell loves that Dr. Whip-out stuff), but it's more fun to share stuff now.

Those are nice Billy-boy. I just got this little gem in from the last Comiclink auction.

cool...thank goodness I decided "against" upgrading my copy, or I would have unknowingly cost you more, or cost me more...

(thumbs u Thank goodness indeed Gator, as I had bid more than it wound up costing me. I've always loved that book and have wanted to reacquire a copy, but also wanted to hold out for a nice one like I used to have (which slabbed 7.5). Thanks again for NOT upgrading (thumbs u

Those are nice Billy-boy. I just got this little gem in from the last Comiclink auction.

I just picked this baby up from Xavier Logan!!! Am I happy or what? Thanks Russell !!!!!

 

 

WAY TO GO, GEEK!!!

 

you keep taking my advice, there's no telling how far you might go.

Probably not as far as the girl on the cover was planning to go

 

 

1940 was a very good year (though Daring Mystery 1 was on the stands at the end on 1939).

 

Love to get one of those one day. About half that grade would be fine.

Actually a 4.0 would be very good.

 

and the smart aleck wonders why he has to steeply discount his books to make friends.

I just got called a smart aleck...

could be worse

I'm actually surprised it wasn't

That's one fine funny book Ricky!! If you don't have any room left in those overstuffed comic boxes of yours, you could keep it at my house for a while

I've got tons of room. Why don't you just move down here? It snowed last night so it should be just like home!

Are you offering to hire me as curator of that fantastic Houston Horde? 'Cause if you are, I might be able to make some adjustments!!

hey frisco man...this past weekend ponseti showed me some seriously old pics of you from days past...man, did you have the hair

Yeah, well I used to have a 30" waist too, but over time, you tend to lose some things ....

 

I'm not sure Rick should be the one giving anyone a hard time about their hair

 

Hi Jim

 

Like the saying goes "Hair bands never die ... the spandex just keeps getting tighter and the hair just keeps getting whiter" ay Gator?!? Oh, Hey Steve
