Post your photo cover westerns here.

[Transplant]

I searched and didn't find a thread devoted to these. It's a toss up as to which forum is better but my feeling was that most western photo-c were in the SA. I wouldn't slight anyone for posting a GA photo cover either. There must be some western collectors out there right? I'll start with mine:

 

Church/Mile High copy

 

 

Crippen copy

 

 

Transplant (i.e. no pedigree copy)

here are a few early ones from the Four Color series. Westerns were one of the main genres for that series. There were quite a few earlier westerns, but they were painted covers, not photo covers. many/most of these have been posted in the Four Color thread in the Gold section.

 

 

 

After seeing the preview, I think that the Fess Parker is actually a photo cover, but it sure looks like him.

That's awfully big wood there for such a little guy. Greggy is some taskmaster.

Definitely painted background and looks like a photo for the portrait. Thanks for the books. I figured there was a thread for every other type of collecting, why not this?

If you have any extra Four Color Westerns, I would trade for them If I do not have them already.

Nice books: a nostalgic throwback to times when heroes were "good guys".

Roy Rogers Comics 35, 1950.

 

[jmg3637]

New this week. Unfortunately, I think I may have to send both of the most recent Roy Rogers Comics back as they were pretty heavily overgraded. You can give me your thoughts on the RRC 2 in the PGM section. Thanks.

here are more photo westerns from the Four Color series. Westerns were a big part of that series. many of the titles published there went on to have their own series
