BangZoom Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Another nice copy, Bangzoom? Must be the most common funny animal book in high grade! My copy is in very fine condition, except... It's missing the bottom right corner (3/16") of the front cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I am a DC silver completest..I do not accept junk copies in my collection but I collect every title and there's no way I can afford 8.0 and up on 1000's of books. But 35 yrs of collecting got me what I have. No way I could afford to start over and buy all these DC's from scratch today. Funny Animals, Romanc, war, I have many G/vg and VG+ books. Too bad..cause they're all beautiful stuff man. Very impressive. How complete is your collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad..cause they're all beautiful stuff man. Very impressive. How complete is your collection? Well...if you consider the SA books that coincide with Showcase 4 Sep-Oct, 56 and cut-off at Dec, 1969...(without getting into a debate about where SA begins and ends) I have figured there are 115 unique titles (including annuals as their own title) and about 4898 books total. I'm still about 1000 books from completing that run. I mostly am hurting with the Funny Animals, Romance & war titles. Bronze and up beginning Jan, 1970 I have most all the DC's to 1994. Late 80's and 90's I did not by everything..1994 I went cold turkey and never purchased another new comic. I also collect GA DC's....Superman, Action, Funny Animals, The Big Five war titles...World's Finest...not everything..mainly what I like and just happen on a good buy. Then there's GK's, Dells, Charltons, Atlas, Marvel....but no where near a collection of the other publishers as DC. I have been focusing lately on upgrading as well as filling in the DC SA books. I went dormant on buying old comics during the late 80's to the late 90's. Focused on collecting a huge 1960's toy collection during that period. Otherwise I'd probably have a real impressive comic collection by now. I'm thinking about flipping the toys, models and other collectibles and buying more silver and gold comics. which is my first love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tb Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 When Trooper posted this one early in the thread, I was amazed by how clever, timeless, controversial, and funny it was. Among all the covers people have shared so far, this one ranks way above the rest in my book. If any cover ever were to deserve the status of "classic" from nothing more than a brilliant idea, this would be it. Edit: That "Frisky Fables" looks brand new, Mr. Strange. If it had been someone else who posted it, I would have asked them to repost it in the Modern forum instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front and back cover. I've done over 2000 books the past month. Warm weather is about back to stay and I won't be able to shoot as many as I like in a week. Too bad I did not decide to do this in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
