Here's my most recent purchase - I agree on the Mr. B. comment. Great looking Western Fighters. That's also a great scene with the kid on the Jimmy Wakely. All the Toth stories inside don't hurt either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should make your wife feel better. I haven't seen that Little Miss Sunbeam before and those are the definition of sharp corners. Very pretty book.

Dr. Love Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) Here's another non-western western, which are kinda fun. Harley had it sitting in a box at Wonder Con. Never heard of the title, but a gorgeous book and the brand emblem, the "Double A" (Anglo-American) looked a bit like a real brand, like from a branding iron, and that was that.

Dr. Love Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 and the real thing. Some Sherman covers I'd crawl over broken glass for, others strike me as meh. Thankfully I don't feel the need to be a completist with this stuff. As if I could! I dig the heck out of this cover. The size of the arrows and the immediate perspective they create, the coloring of the scattered rifle blast, and especially the white dust churned up by the (red!) wagon. Too cool.

I haven't seen the Three Aces before and that's a great looking copy. Though they're just begging to be robbed with that box labeled "gold" showing on an open cart. The WC #11 is one of my favorite covers of the series and you summed it up perfectly... "Too cool". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusterMark Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Great Western 11 !! The 3 Aces is a Canadian book. Not a Canadian edition/version of an American book, but an actual Canadian book. Also known as a "Canadian White" and also as a "WECA" book. This particular issue is towards the very end of the Canadian Whites era (soon after the end of WWII, and I believe was also distributed within the US to a limited extent.) i have owned other Western themed books from this late portion of the Anglo-American titles of Canadian Whites. If I get the chance, I'll post a pic later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
