143ksk Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 Those are very nice books, Jeff I especially love the Archie Comics title from this time period--most issues have awesome Harry Lucey work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotemo Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 That Jughead 28 reminds me of other favorite 1950s covers. The art was at its best during that period. Sorry if I've posted any of these before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotemo Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Here are some 1960s era issues: Some of the following are from the "Scrawled Publication Date" collection, a fairly high grade collection of Archie Giant size books identified by the scrawled publication date on the upper left corner of the cover. These turned up at my LCS about 12 years ago for $1 to $2 each. They are all in pretty sharp condition with glossy covers. Finally, this is a favorite B&V from 1962. It took a while to find a fairly high grade copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lotemo Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 Those are great Laugh covers. Are those both Harry Lucey? I would guess #88 is but I can't tell about #78. I took this week off from work so among other things, I've been purusing my Archie archives. I have to make sure that I pull them out to enjoy them from time to time so that I can justify having so much money invested in them. Here are the covers of Archie Comics, pre and post Comics Code. This is the final issue of Reggie from 1954. Archie's Joke Book picked up the Reggie numbering going forward. When Reggie was revived in the 1960s, the series continued with number 15 as well and with the same cover joke as #14. I don't have Reggie #15 scanned right now, so hopefully I can find it and add it to this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess #88 is but I can't tell about #78. #88 is definitely by Lucey, #78 Nice books--I really like the cover to Reggie 14. Obviously it was so good they used it twice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lotemo Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I think you missed page 5 though Page 5 is there. Did it not show up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
143ksk Posted December 29, 2005 Author Share Posted December 29, 2005 Is it only a 5 page story? It looked like a whole lot of stuff was missing between page 4 and the last page. Maybe weird editing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 143skk is your Archie collection complete? What are you missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
143ksk Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 143skk is your Archie collection complete? What are you missing? I still have around 150-200 issues to go (you can see I keep excellent records ). Nothing real major needed at this point--just mostly a bunch of '50s and '60s issues. I'm trying to get finished by the Chicago Comicon (OK, OK Wizard World)--we'll see if I can do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
