sagii Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) Great "mood" on this one with the walking dead RM, great show , super books, some i have either never seen, or noticed before. A great artist is a great artist, a great cover is a great cover, (though he has some coveted non romance stand outs- Phantom Lady, some select Crime covers) i can't understand why more of these are not as sought after or discussed at the same level of interest as his romance work. Love the war cover with the flame thrower too With this one (Living dead cover?) and some of the other covers you posted, he was on territory most covered by fellow golden age African American artist A.C. Hollingsworth (who could render a good girl or two himself, sometimes in 'Bakerish' fashion). Just cool examples. The Wild Boy 14 is a personal fave, i have upgraded copies a few times and now have a really nice example. Such detail on that one, and he signed it too Wild Boy 15 is also a fave ( i consider it the 'brother' cover to it's 'sister'(under water cover, human vs. animal action) Seven Seas 4. Thanks for posting (thumbs u (thumbs u (thumbs u (thumbs u Edited September 30, 2015 by Sagii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Thanks Corey. Hopefully this is what you had in mind. Being a horror head, I really love these. Too bad they are pretty tame inside. Ya know, I was so totally focused on St. John, I totally for got about Phantom Lady. Numbers 16 and 17 are my personal favorites. I've got most of them. Maybe somebody else will post some of his Fox work that I missed. I have another of your subset requests in the can for a future date. I am sure you will recognize it. I am open to suggestions to the rest of you people out there in comic book land if anyone has a request for a future subset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 I have a few old Superman and Betty Boop Sunday's as well as some Spirit sections but not much. That is one of the few areas I have never really explored. Sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 It's a "real photo" postcard. Just found it in the wild. I have seen it before I believe here on the boards. I'm guessing the kids are Chinese but don't really know much about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpepx78 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Interesting pic. Wonder what the story is behind it? Great photos robot man! The photo description from Corbis images is: Story-Teller Becomes Enchanted February 2, 1945 Stephen Schaeffer, New York City, becomes enchanted with his own story as he reads from a comic book to two hill-dwelling Kachin youngsters. A pile of the comic books, carried by liason personnel with the Chinese Army keeping the Japanese clear of the link between the Stilweel and Burma Roads, is between the threesome waiting to be read.

Robot Man Posted October 11, 2015 Author Share Posted October 11, 2015 The flea market gods were very good to me today. Got up early and scored some VERY nice condition pulps. The seller had 'em on the bay at pretty high prices and they didn't sell. So I was surprised to see a large stack in his booth for a 10 spot apiece. I love Finlay and Paul, the condition was spot on and cheap. Had to jump. I got out early though because it was close to 100 degrees here today. I bought a pretty good pile but these were my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
