Hoarder Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Hi everyone, I just wanted to show off a little run that I've been collecting of Green Hornet Comics Schomburg (and War) covers. I think these covers are very underrated and a few of them are quite scarce in the marketplace. Anyway, they give me a lot of pleasure and the hunt was very fun so I thought I would share them. The first is #15....it's debatable whether or not Schomburg did this one, but it is a cool cover nonetheless Edited January 16, 2015 by Hoarder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarder Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Next is #16. I love this cover. Honestly, I bought this off Metro and am shocked that it came back Purple label. I guess it could always be unrestored if necessary. Edited January 16, 2015 by Hoarder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarder Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) #18 is also amazing...also tough to find. this copy is pretty low grade, but still has appeal to me. Edited January 17, 2015 by Hoarder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsp99 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Its a tough run, especially early issues. Most war time Harveys are tough in general. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I too love Green Hornet. I've got most from about #10-25. Schomburgs are my favorites except this one is better. A few cool premiums thrown in just for good measure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldCap Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I agree there are several great covers in the Green Hornet series. Some seem like a steal in price compared to Captain America Comics especially when you see how few there are on the census. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarder Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) Sorry, they are slightly out of order. #17 and highest graded i believe. Edited January 17, 2015 by Hoarder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarder Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 back to the correct order. #19. Very hard to find and a pretty shocking cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoarder Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 I have a better scan somewhere of my 21, but this will do for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarder Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 #22...also highest graded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoarder Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) 23 never did it for me. I don't know why, but the cover is a little murky. I know Schomburg didn't do #24, but this is just a great, great cover. Anyway, that's it. I just really enjoyed this little run and appreciate you guys checking it out.

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Fantastic! Any interior shots or house ads? I'm curious what these early Harvey's looked like inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Hi Hoarder. I didn't mean to crash your thread. I didn't know you were done. Looks like you saved the best for last! Spectacular run. Those make mine look like junk. Congrats on a beautiful run. Now go for some more. I love this title! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's one from GREEN HORNET #16. mm Thanks Marty; not a bad house ad! I have fond memories of the later Harvey house ads that Harvey produced for the kids books. Nice to see this earlier version.
