I thought the same thing when I first saw this book. Part of the reason though why I’ve pursued copies of it. Looking up the inside story she actually has a gun so I’d guess 1) The cover artist wasn’t aware of the dialogue and didn’t know she was supposed to be holding a gun 2) unlikely as it seems they censored it. Probably the longest shot since this is a pre code book 3) my guess the artist just plain forgot and it’s a mistake. Might have been a busy week when he drew it. As the jokes after I posted it prove it’s a great little novelty… vaultkeeper, Larryw7, Mr. Lady Luck and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Larryw7 Posted August 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2023 I always wanted this, but the more I look at that cover the more mean spirited I think it is. But I'm sure the stories will be good. badback83, Raze, adamstrange and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dr. Balls Posted August 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) Unboxed my CLink wins yesterday. Picked up a restored Marvel Tales 94 in a competitor slab as well. Spotlight comics was just a neat cover I didn't want to pass up.

I just noticed how washed out my early scans were on those 2 recent CGC submissions of Gangsters and the All American.They look way better in hand now so here’s an updated look at both books with better scans. I guess I should wait next time before posting instead of using preliminary scans… Jayman, Larryw7, Raze and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should wait next time before posting instead of using preliminary scans… Very nice. I have multiple copies of Gangsters Can't Win #1 even a graded one in 9.2, but can't post here as they frown upon CBCS graded books posted here. I also have multiple Pay-off #1's in high grade. Again can't post here. I collect/collected all obscure #1's in higher grade. So, over the years if I saw and extra high grade copy of a #1, I'd pick it up. About 20 years ago when everyone was starting to focusing on key Marvel or DC books they were given these obscure esoteric books away for pennies. I decided to buy up whatever I came across. I couldn't afford to put this collection together today. I have hundreds and hundreds of high grade obscure esoteric #1's, #nn's, promos, giveaways, 3-D, and Dell file copies. Love your books. Looking forward to morre DS type posts from you. Inaflash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
