This is a calandar that was given away when you mail ordered an Archie Annual. They ran from the early '50s to at least the '70s. If anyone has any, or knows of any, please PM me. 601302-archie%20pinup.jpg

Here's the cover to Little Archie #31. I'm not quite sure why, but many issues of Little Archie had very violent covers. The interior stories also were heavily slanted towards violence and peril (both physical and emotional). Topics that were rarely or never seen in the teen-age Archie books were commonplace in Little Archie. I think it's just a bit odd that the younger Archie books were so much more "adult" in theme... 608012-la31.jpg

well here are a few of the not-so-violent Little Archies that i bought as a kid; (except for the COUGAR story inset on issue #17, which shows little archie about to get his chewed by the big cat).

 

these books are well-read and well-loved........

I sent a copy of this off to be graded, and just called the other day to get the grade. 5.0 C/OW. frustrated.gif

 

I was sure it would be at least a 7.0 Well, good thing I'm not on one of the grading teams.

Yeah, that's happened to me once or twice, too... mad.gif

 

BTW, that's one of my favorite B&V covers. I bought the original art to it last year from Heritage.
