Just finished going through my latest acquisitions, thought I'd post a few I liked the covers of.

 

Looks like Lucy Lane has treated Jimmy poorly for the last time - I'd love to see what the kids look like once you mix that green hair with Jimmy's red:

And in these next two, I always loved it when Jimmy got into something and had a strange transformation. May I present Giant Turtle-Man, and Colossal Jimmy:

Coincidentally I've been going through my JO books, too...Some of the early ones are tough to find

Yeah, I know what you mean. I don't have anything back that far, this is my oldest Jimmy Olsen:

The only books I have in the teens are a couple Lois Lane's. This is my oldest of her title, #15:

That LL 15 is one of the great covers of the Silver Age. I just love the "triple panel covers"; they are so cool.

Yeah, they do look pretty neat. I think we've talked about this one before, Superman #132:

I love those two covers, two of my favorites.

 

I have all the JO books, but most are lower grade, when I find another high grade one, I'll post it. I never paid much attention to grade when buying them, just bought what I could find, so they vary like all my books.

Well, Hep, should I post my J.O. #24...? Also, there is what appears to be a Cookeville copy of J.O. #1 on Ebay right now:

The 11 is much tougher to find than the 13.

 

Early Jimmys are so tough. I'm sure we all have copies to upgrade.

 

Well, be sure to let me know when you do - my collection consists of nothing else but stuff other people want to upgrade from. ;)

Been meaning to scan my Jimmy Olsens for some time,most mid to low grade but at least I am complete finally.

I made a start with scanning, then switched to photos as it was taking too long.

This would be 1-12 but 12 is a slab and missing from the shot :grin:
