CLASSIC covers NOT considered "CLASSIC" by CGC or OS

Some of these books may not be recognized as "classic" by OSPG or CGC, but anyone who has bid on them knows that the collecting community knows a classic cover when it sees it.

Nothing should need to be said here ......

 

 

clASSic

 

Beyond the obvious, the perspective on this cover is really kinda awesome.

I'm not sure if others would agree with me or not, but this one seems to have that classic look to me as well...

Love 'em both! The great thing about many of these early Dell comics is that many times the back cover is as interesting as the front. Love the Night Devils!

Simple, but classic I think:

Thanks Jimmy.

 

A few I can't believe are not listed as classic. (Maybe they forgot to label them...)

 

 

Yes, probably missed by CGC as both of these are clearly denoted as classic covers in the OS guide.

 

Same with many of the other covers posted here such as Daredevil #1, Venus #19, Jojo #8, etc.

Now there are quite a few MMC's that are considered to be, "Classic" by either OS or CGC and I agree but this particular issue didn't make the cut...I truly feel this one has got everything going for it from the artwork, the woman in peril about to be dipped into acid if not for our hero, the hooded Villain and his menacing minions, right down to the color palette...this cover all sorts of ROCKS IMHO!!

I'd never seen or noticed this before. The code approved pre-silver period is full of cool stuff. A classic for sure. I tend to think of the Atomic Age as an overlay that runs from the late forties to around 1960 so as to include books like this.

Gino, totally with you! The bones in the acid vat do it for me.

I like the menacing choir in the background, especially the one looking up. Love it, Gino.

It seems like a lot of the "classic" covers in Overstreet have a simple, elegant look to them. They're not always the most elaborate covers. I think this one sort of fits the bill.
