Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 I guess there's no Zeppelin lovers. Maybe I should just stick to comics... Here is my Monday subset. Shark covers! I love these and there seem to be so many. I had to put a lot back when I was shooting these. Here are some of my favorites. Submariner #18 Sharks are not prominent but a great action filled Schomburg cover and a green titled Timely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Sharks are also not too prominent on this Danger #1 but the title says it all. Best of all, this book has a nice Frazetta story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 He Man #2 Now we're talking. This is a nasty looking shark! Kinda reminds me of one of those "sweat magazine" covers. This is one weird title. Only ran 2 issues and the cover on #1 with a strange gorilla cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Wow what a way to go on this Lawbreakers Suspensestories #14. This doesn not end well for this guy. The story is pretty gory too. #11 gets all the love but this is a real good title for a Charlton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 A big favorite. Seven Seas #4. Matt Bakers' hairlipped shark. Oh, there's a shark in the picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Annother favorite. Love the colors on this Exciting #60. Nothing like a Schomburg cutie fighting a big fish... I really gotta upgrade this one some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Now we are getting a bit terrifying. Bad enough stuck on a rubber raft out in the middle of the ocean with no food, water or comics to read and you have to contend with this! Real Life #11. One of the better covers in this run. Cheapest Schomburg stuff you can get and pretty good reads (if you actually do that anymore) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Last one for today is Whiz #19. Bought this from Redbeard at WonderCon years ago. Couldn't whip out my wallet fast enough. What a beautiful cover. The composition, color, cute girl and the way the tail even breaks the title. Maybe my favorite Fawcett GA comic. At least top 3 for sure. These are so under rated.

Toys, models, postcards, stamps, trains, and the list goes on and on. The Zepps are great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat-Man_America Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I used to have a big collection of Zeppelin stuff. Sold it all off in a moment of weakness. Have always liked them. A few years ago in one of the Brimfield fields I found this nice large Metal Craft one from the '30's. It was just parts in a box. It apeared pretty complete so I chanced $25. on it and took it home. Had a lot of fun re-building it and to my surprise, found it complete except for the end tip piece. Love the "steam punk", art deco look and the colors. I used to have lots of Zeppelin stuff too, ...including a few bootlegs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
