I stood and looked for a while and realized it was one thing my wife just wouldn’t let me hang up in the house. She is pretty permissive but that would be a no no. For that reason, and of course, the price, I just had to walk away. Later it was gone to some lucky collector. I still wonder where it is now. It lives in NYC now...see my post above.

When I had a “complete” EC collection, I was still missing 3 giveaways (that I knew of) and this was one of them. Pretty sure a couple of EC completists here are on the boards have one.

Was this the last one? As far as I know, "Educational Comics" published 8 promo books (all happen to be from the Reddy Kilowatt line) between 1956-1960 (inclusive), and that 1960 book that Hap (and I) posted up there is indeed the last one (and the only one from 1960).

OtherEric Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I believe reprints of the Reddy Kilowatt books continued into the 60's. Not certain EC actually gets credit for publishing this version, no publisher is listed that I can find. Just a copyright 1965 to Reddy Kilowatt. grendelbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sat for awhile before you grabbed it. I don’t own any moon girls and was just too indecisive about picking it up. my vote is to crack it open if you have never read it. that was my plan.

By the time I found it and checked my want list, it was gone. You snooze you lose… On the bright side, I was able to grab a Happy Houligans #1 (origin Moon Girl) and Gunfighter #6 (Moon Girl story) as well as a cool Prize Christmas cover so thanks!
