Car Toons #1 (Pete Millar, 1959)

[50 Cent #II (1st)]

Car Toons isn't listed in OS, anyone know of the value of these? (First few issues were digest size before they moved to mag. size.)

Cool! never seen that before. I have no clue as to it's value, but that copy looks to be in decent shape.

 

Probably more valuable to hot rod memorabelia collectors than comic collectors.

Thanks.

 

Aren't you moving back to So. Cal. soon?

I'm here now. I guess I need to update my profile.

I was an avid reader of CarToons as a youngster in the early 1970's, but I have never seen that first issue either. (Or any of the early digest-sized issues for that matter.) I bought a handful of issues from the mid 1960's at an antique show once, at $3 each.

 

There has to be a market for CarToons, as so many people grew up reading them, but I have no idea if they appear in any kind of price guide. The earliest issues I see listed currently on eBay are from 1962.
