Stevemmg Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Congrats on the CSS #22 color guide! Certainly one of the most desirable to have, that's for sure. I was able to get eight of them from Russ's auctions myself, and have a couple of originals from the first time around in the '50's. I have to say, the later Cochran versions are the better ones to have from an artistic standpoint, as they are larger than the originals (those are actual comic size) and the watercolor detail on the later ones seems better overall. I've framed a few, and get a big kick out of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

october Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Glad you snagged one! I think mine is a file copy. Only 9.0 or better copy I have ever seen. This issue is also a Gerber no-show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

october Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Not new, but I never had a chance to show this one off when I bought it. The only copy I have ever seen with nice semi-uniform green across the cover. Most copies are dull and brownish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was looking at mine yesterday and consoling myself that it wasn't so much worse than yours. I was wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
