I had a good friend back in the early 80's who said he

saw Fantastic Four 1 in Leave it to beaver. I looked for years never did I see this and today I found it on the 1985 Leave it to Beaver. At 10.00 there is more. At 12.40 its mint.

Perhaps these have made an appearance here before, but that's 110 pages to go through....

I came across these in the last HA photography auction.

Bernice Abbott - 1935

John Albok - 1937

That kid on the right reads his comics exactly the way I did when I was his age.

I think most of us did.

I don't know if this has been posted already - it probably has, but ...

On the bottom row, I see Captain America Comics #12 (I think), Mystic Comics #8, Captain Marvel Adventures #7 over his right shoulder, another Captain America Comics #12 that he's reading, Exciting Comics #17 over his left shoulder, not sure what's next to that - a Target Comics maybe?, Blue Bolt #10 (vol. 2) next to that... I have an idea which Crack Comics that is to the right of the Blue Bolt, but not exactly sure of the issue.... maybe #20 or #22.

The one that's bothering me that I can't figure out is the stack of comics behind the Captain Marvel Adventures that seems to be the same comic.  It seems to start with an "S".

If that kid is still around, he's in his mid-to-late-80's probably.  Incredible to think about - talk about capturing a moment in time.

Imagine if you were the collector who lent your FF 1 to them for the movie. I'd be like whoa easy there Mrs. Cleaver, it's not a copy of Better Homes & Gardens your flapping around there. I doubt it's the real thing, maybe, but that book looks pretty minty.

The book would have been around 20 years old. I think it was 300-600-900 in the guide so even a mint copy would have been pennies compared to making the movie. I also don't think they had copy machines that good back then.

Yeah you're probably right. I've heard Jerry Mathers doesn't work cheap.

Ha!  I got the Captain Marvel Adventures already, but never would've guessed the Silver Streak.  Nice.  Thanks!

From that video, R.I.P. Mr. Olshevsky, who passed away just over a year ago.  He eventually donated his talents to comics, paleontology, mathematics, etc.

“Comics are so popular they are starting to have problems with thieves” Even back then it seems…
