Sweet Jungle Thrills book, Andy! Very nice!

 

Yeah, who knows on that Startling Terror #11. tongue.gif I've often thought the Startling Terror #11 (2nd) must be a difficult book to sell on ebay, because of buyers' disappointment when they click in and find that generic crime cover instead of the ultra-classic spider cover!

Hopefully I will have a copy of the good #11 soon. I have a chance at a nice looking, but low grade copy.

I know someone else who has one available -- maybe the same person. Is yours coming from SF?

Actually, it occurs to me that those of us who look out for Science Comics (Fox), Suspense Comics (1940s) and Mystic Comics (1940s) are all too familiar with that 0-60-0 rush... smirk.gif

Double guide?!? screwy.gif

 

I think the bidders confused this one with the first series number 11. A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.

 

Oh man... Somewhere someone's happy for the wrong reason...

 

Nice pics here guys. Keep 'em comin! All the pics I had went away when my comnputer crashed on Monday. frown.gif I'll see what I can do to get back up and runnin'!

Here's a Cole that doesn't get seen too often.

No car crashes, no blood, no zombies, no naked devil chicks, no mammon. Just the omnipresent threat of polar bears.

I scored this one off of the bay a few weeks ago. Excellent non-funny animal cover! And a cool story too! That's one of the reasons I like the VG-FN copies, I don't feel bad about actually READING them. wink.gif

If I remember correctly, that woman was there for some kind of photo shoot and some fool tries to rob them or something. It's funny because I think she has that yellow coat on that BARELY covers her legs at all. She'd be freezing anywhere polar bears lived, but of course it's no big deal. ....I love the golden age... wink.gif

Finally Had the time to scan a few Funny Animal Coles. All three are among the harder to find, please excuse the condition, I am a low grade collector when it comes to this stuff, I'm just happy to have it!

 

This is one of My Favorites, I love the balloon motif in the background:

This is of course high on my list for being a Halloween cover:

And a big thanks to fan4fan for picking this one up for me at no extra cost! Never saw it before!:
