Centaur Comics 19 19

[october]

 

The red on the 18 is so bright it leaves and after-image!

 

I pity the fools who don't frequent the golden age forum.

[Silver Surfer]

Those are some cool covers.

[TheEyeSees]

HOT STUFF Steve~! Dang, those are some nice books. Lucky for you I didn't find that KDF 20 first... that is a beaut.

 

That 18 is nothing to sneeze at as well!! I love that EYE cover!!

That is kind of a fun book Jon. I like the Evel Knievel suits!

[selegue]

Am I supposed to think, "Three Stooges"?

Look at the eye-poke on the left.

 

Jack

"Pick two"

As threatened - uh, I mean promised - here come the Larson copies of Keen Detective Funnies 18 through 22. Enjoy...

 

Steve, what happened to the magic camera? Those Larsons look great, but it's not the same without the blinding reflective shine on the covers from the flash, along with the requisite blue carpet background.

 

Here is another Stars and Stripes, which I don't think has been posted yet:

NICE!!!!!

[TheEyeSees]

 

This thread is too good to leave untouched for very long!

 

This just arrived... it was a banner week for GA!! From Comic Heaven ... a long wait, but worth it. The Cosmic Aeroplane copy (whats the story behind this pedigree?)

 

Love the cover!! does anyone know if this is Tarpe Mills only golden age cover? I don't think she actually did any of the Miss Fury covers for Timely...

What a great cover!!

 

The ape looks like he's wondering which of his cousins were sacrificed to make that woman's crazy bikini...

[adamstrange]

Very nice!

 

Cosmic Aeroplane was named after the store that sold the books. They came from an art instructor so you'll occasionally see flecks of paint on the cover. The speculation is that the checks on the cover and interior pages mark panels of particular interest. There should be more information on Matt Nelson's site.

Thanks AS! That clears up the question I forgot to ask.. that is, what up with all the numbering and check marks inside? That is so cool they came form an art instructor's collection... myself being a commercial artist.

 

I'll check out Matt's site! Thanks again.

 

(Point Five made a funny!)

I'm not an artist but I'll admit that I think the check marks are cool!

Nice book & an Amazing-Man cover too..........I WANT ONE!!!

[JJBEE2001]

Sweet - I've never seen that one before.

My bad - I got lazy and didn't take the books out of the mylar.

Hey! Hey YOU! Is that the Larson copy??

Cosmic Aeroplane, not Larson. And it's available.

[CentaurMan]

Finally, I can cross this Keen Detective Funnies off my want list! Not as nice as the pedigrees shown in this thread, but as a completionist that doesn't bother me too much.

 

 

Only a couple of very early KDF issues left and I'm done with the whole run.

[The Black Hand ®]

I love thos KDF covers but I've never read one. How are the stories?
