What's the DC slug doing at the upper right and the 20 cent price at the upper left? Did they do this on any other issues???

I was wondering the same thing! I can tell you there are no other Action issues to do this, I also know there are no Detective Comics issues to do this either.

Awesome thread. I have a copy of Batman 234 with the complete banner showing with space to spare. That was REALLY hard to find! This cover sports not only the whole 20 cent circle, but Lings complete left foot as well.

 

Great eye Randall! Beautiful cover with everything intact! I can imagine how hard it must have been to search this out.

Add these to the first issues list:

 

Black Magic 1

Boy Commandos 1

Champion Sports 1

Four Star Battle Tales 1

GI War Tales 1

Johnny Thunder 1

Laurel & Hardy 1

Legion Of SuperHeroes 1

Secret Origins 1

Strange Sports Stories 1

Trigger Twins 1

I can't think of any keys to add. Seems most of what would be a "key" came earlier in the decade.

 

Thanks for the additions! You're right about the keys, the ones I thought I remembered being 20-cents were actually the 15-cent covers and 52 Page Giants.
