Robot Man Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 I think this is all the Baker Giant Comics Editions. This is #12. My favorite of the run and one of my top 10 favorite books in my whole collection. Very pretty girl and I love the blue/green background. No distractions.

Robot Man Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Alice Kelly? When I first got this I thought it was Shirley Temple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickamabob Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hey! It's Dollface Dimples! (aka Alice Kelley) I'm pretty sure this is a Dollface sighting that hasn't been noted before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickamabob Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Though this is a great cover, I am fairly certain it isn't by Matt Baker. Looks to me like Bob Lubbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 Yeah, you are right. I should have clarified. What I was trying to do was show all the Giant Comics Editions that wern't the Mighty Mouse or funny ones. I can dig them out too but I suspect most of you won't care. The #7 isn't a Baker cover either but all of these at least have Baker interior art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 A couple more bonus books for you today. I posted these over in the Atlas thread. I was asked by a few boardies to post everything here. They are cool enought to get a "double post". Love this title as well as Menace. Pretty gritty books.

Robot Man Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 Well, I'm feeling a little MAD again... Here are some early pre-MAD Alfred E. Neuman postcards. I have a ton of these but these are some of my favorites. There are so many weird variations. It is easy to see why MAD found him and adopted him.

Robot Man Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 These are late 1930's to early 1940's (notice dates) Alfred was used as a pawn for re-electing Roosevelt on many of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted April 24, 2015 Author Share Posted April 24, 2015 Now, this is a very cool book. One of the best books about MAD Magazine and a must have if you are a collector. Nothing special really as it is available any time you want it. But, not like this. This copy has a surprise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
