VintageComics Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Having held some San Fran books in hand in the raw, I can attest to the fact that they are scary nice in person. White and impeccable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timely Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 I am still gathering data on the San Francisco collection, but as of now, I have only been able to find San Francisco books from the few publishers listed below. I've also listed the number of San Francisco books I've found for each publisher. Pretty interesting data.

tb Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I am still gathering data on the San Francisco collection, but as of now, I have only been able to find San Francisco books from the few publishers listed below. I've also listed the number of San Francisco books I've found for each publisher. Pretty interesting data. CENTAUR: 1 DC: 117 FOX: 4 MLJ: 10 PRIZE: 4 QUALITY: 29 TIMELY: 75 FAWCETT: 2 TOTAL SAN FRANCISCO COPIES CURRENTLY KNOWN: 242 Beerbohm's master list had long runs of Dell comics, including what surely would have been the best existing run of Walt Disney's Comics and Stories from #1 up. At some point, I believe nearmint(?) brought up that no one had ever seen a Nedor from the San Francisco collection. As far as I remember, the general consensus of the discussion was that the list must have been incorrect. Looking at Timely's list, I find it puzzling that both Nedors and Dells are missing completely. Could the master list have been so wrong, or is it more likely that these groups were sold off as large lots early on and never surfaced on the market again? If this happened 35-40 years ago, perhaps we will know a definitive answer not so long from now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
