Show me your Timely's and I'll show you mine. Have a Cigar... 30 30

[Silver Surfer]

Picture frame glory!

[G.A.tor]

Eureka!

 

when I first collected timely's, I had the entire superhero set except one comic... USA 5....

 

well, I sold my USA's back in 2009 having never completed that one timely hero run...

 

in 2012 I finally got a nice USA 5, so I decided to put a mini run of 5-13 back together, just so I could finally say "I owned them all at same time"...

 

3 years later, I had 5-7 and 9-13 but the 8 eluded me....until Heroes con when a friend traded me a copy...

 

so, finally, I have a complete, unbroken subset of 5-13...

 

[Straw-Man]

nicely done, buddy-boy.

I can't match Gator's juke box of stacked classics, but this SDCC acquisition was photographed on our Amtrak train heading back to Ft. Worth...

 

 

..And the train Kept-A'Rollin' all night long!!!

 

I'll do a proper scan back home.

VERY nice GAtor!!! Also, that is probably the most praise I've ever seen for a set of "top labels" ever before in my life!!!

[Frisco Larson]

Here's a group shot I took a few years ago (still have them all), just so ya know what we're expecting with those U.S.A."s GAtor

 

 

[Badger]

Wow! Fantastic accomplishment! I've been stuck at #9,13-17 for a while now. This might inspire me to go buy a USA comic.

 

Oh yeah, and...

[Badger]

Congrats, Cat! Looks like a great copy!

[Badger]

This was probably the original owner of that book.

I think cap 33 had an interesting Human Torch story.

and the splash on the right is from Cap 33 too, I think.
