Scrooge Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 :hail: :hail: :hail: :hail: Thank you sooo much for checking. Goes to show that this issue is like hen's teeth. I would notch it up as an Overstreet fake data ... if we didn't have a recorded scan of the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, but we know of several instances where a given period for a publisher has a dramatic increase in the rarity of books across the entire line. I'm curious if there is a similar instance here, or just randomness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Guys, Buttock's question is a question that has been on my mind for a few years now. Is this a phantom issue or not? Aside from that scan on the GCD, I have seen neither hide nor hair of this book. BUT, why would someone create a fake cover to upload on the GCD? I don't see that as reasonable so the book must exist; it's just rare. IMO, it's not part of the known Fawcett printing & paper stock issue that we're all aware that affects such in demand books as TMIH # 3 or The Man from Planet X (a.k.a. Fawcett Movie Comics # 15). Though the causality is not quite clear: are they tough to get b/c they are in demand or are they in demand b/c they are tough to find. Methinks (channeling my inner Bob), that's it's a case of the latter. I do have the only other 2 Youthful books from that month: Fantastic # 8 and Stamp Comics 3. I'll try to check where they were printed in the indicia and compare with the Fawcetts to see if they came from the same plant. That will shed some light on the issue.

adamstrange Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Fantastic 8 is not scarce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I agree. It's out there. I checked my Stamps Comics to my Bill Boyd Western and, of course, the printer is not listed. The cover stocks though felt different which, ultimately, is not helping us figure out why that issue of Redskin is impossible to find. The search goes on ...

Scrooge Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Let's get the thread back on track, FC 312 a.k.a. Tonto # 1. Still didn't have a copy so glad to get this one. Might not be a surprise to anyone but Dells still remain the bulk of my collection with ~2,000 Dell comics. They are good comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
