Always showcasing cool unique items RM! Collecting "outside the comic book realm" is a natural extension! My most exciting recent purchases, beside the comics, are WW2 leaflet and propaganda papers. And surely Robot is an inspiration in this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget to notify me with an @ please. I have so many things to sort out, and as far as comics goes it’s time consuming to scan european journals, as they require to be scanned in two parts, they do not fit the scanner’s bed. I post just a small thing that I believe in some way fits in Robot's thread with its "patriotic theme": this one has been trampled by various boots and shoes, but managed to survive in Italy.

Always showcasing cool unique items RM! Glad to be an inspiration Corey. I'm just trying to say, I love my comic books first and foremost but the other stuff is fun and challenging to find as well. Just a tip, Hakes is great for the rare stuff but so many pinbacks go sooooo cheap on ebay these days. Do some seaches on a regular basis. LOTS of deals. A Capt. Marvel Shazam pin went for $465. in the CC auction that is common at $50. all the time. Get the Hakes premium book to see what is out there and go for it!

Just a thought on this one, I can see the cover artist, having been assigned a flag illustration, slapping his forehead and muttering "flag cover - that's 48 bloody stars!" "Hmm. It's just for little kids, most of them can't count - I'll squib it with an "artistic license reduction". If the editor complains, I'll shove a few more stars in the margins".

I probably would have posted it but don't have a photo of my copy. It wouldn't compare of course, to your beautiful Crowley checking copy. Speaking of Jr... I forgot this was in my bucket. I like this one a lot with the war theme and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
