Did we forget to mention Rudy Vallee was the second one. I couldn't find the name of the dog but might be Marmaduke.

The Vagabond Lover also liked dogs. Didn't Harvey have a superhero with a name like that.

And, I don't know who #7 is but I do recognize that Macy's Christmas advertising supplement as being an item I have in my collection.

 

I thought it was Jack Burnley :shrug:

 

Did we ever get the key to the test? :makepoint:

Don't believe it's been or it has I don't recall it.

 

Great pics! I collect all Pulps from March 1942 so this is very close to my want list. In fact some of the pulps there are still on the stand from that time period.

Which one is the army navy 5. Early supersnipe. Or are you going to make me strain my eyes on my iPhone?

Which 5's were you not able to ID? Location?

Ill need to resurrect my old supersnipe thread and add this image.

I've marked the hard to identify books in red.

The blue ones are some of the more interesting or desirable books.

6. Action 50

7. Army & navy 5

8. Marvel mystery 33

9. Superman 17, hitler & Hirohito cover

10. Bill Barnes 7, japan atomic bombing story
