The Unofficial Underground Comix thread... 14 14

[00comics]

According to Fogel's guide -

 

1st, w/glasses, says printing 7654321 c=.75

2nd, w/glasses, says printing 765432 c=1

3rd, w/glasses, says printing 76543 c=1

 

I have a 3rd, but with no glasses.... SIGH

[Toz]

Thanks 00,I've got the third print but it did have the glasses with it.Nice shape but a wrinkle on the back.Seen the cover many times and always loved it.

 

Here's the scan and be glad you DON"T have the glasses.It'll really screw with your brain.It's worse than some of the 3D I've seen from the 1950's.

Dan Fogel is working on the second edition of his guide, scheduled to come out late this year. This time, he is going to do a limited hardcover editon of approximately 100 copies. In the next day or two, I will post pre-ordering information for those of you interested in reserving a copy for yourselves.

Fogel is taking pre-orders. The prime benefit is that you will get free shipping & be guaranted a copy (and a low number for the S & N copy if that is your thing).

 

P.S. I have nothing to do with this sale, just doing this as a service to those of you that might have interest in this. But I did pre-order a limited edition copy for myself.

 

Per Fogel, it is not going to be published until around the end of 2012.

Dan just told me that the total run will be 3000 copies, 2900 of the regular edition & 100 of the limited signed edition.

I think I made a mistake before in calling the limited edition a hardcover, sorry.

I have a Zap 2 fifty cent cover. What does heavy cover stock mean. Are we talking baxter paper? Graphic Novel? What's the real trick with this one.

If you can scan the front cover and post it, there are a few "tells" other than cover stock that should help to identify which one it is.

Looking around some more, looks like the inner pages need to have tiny margins to be a 1st print, which mine does not have.

Here are my latest two Underground SS books, signed by Joyce Farmer, a pioneer Wimmen's Libber in comix and William Stout, who became a very famous straight artist doing dinosaur illustrations.

Just met W. Stout yesterday at WonderCon.

Both Spain Rodriguez and S. Clay Wilson canceled appearances last year. I am hoping to pick them up and get Larry Todd on a high grade Dr. Atomic #1, and also hopefully pick up a Ted Richard this year.

 

I've gotten bitten by the underground bug pretty hard.

One of the best parts of collecting Undergrounds is learning the printings so you can discover how to pick up early prints on the sly...

 

For example, last week I purchased a nice Zap Comix #0 (1st print) for $35 because it was listed as a 3rd print but description stated NUMBERED PAGES.
