Centaur Comics 19 19

[G.A.tor]

I am thankful that more folks have not "discovered" the joy and challenge in centaur collecting (whew)

 

[G.A.tor]

Everett, Gustavson (my personal fav), Biro, Ryan, Mills, etc, etc....all precursory and captive in their own respects....

 

rick hits the nail on the head here.

 

And let's not forget Fred Guardineer - I was reading some of the early Star Comics last night, and they are just loaded with material from him. I tend to focus on the amazing work he rendered on the Dan Hastings strip, but wow...he did so much more.

 

Guardineer was indeed as prolific as he was talented.

 

Here are samples from Star Comics 9 (January, 1938):

 

yes, ,FG should not have been relegated to "etc, etc".... a stud among early chesler/centaur/dc artists, no doubt!

Steve's wonderful acquisitions made me look into the old comicbox and see what centaurs are not usually seen....so here you go.....

[G.A.tor]

not "rarely", how about "almost never" (I guess that is rarely )

[G.A.tor]

first appearance of the Arrow by Gustavson!...and, ow/white paper too...

courtesy of mr danker (monster coll)...thank you good sir!!

 

[G.A.tor]

if you are going to own a book with foxing, make sure it was once owned by a guy named Larson

[G.A.tor]

and, if this isn't the prettiest 4.0, ow/white paged beauty you have ever seen (I guess the little 1" spine split lowered it from a 6.0??), well then, it is because you made your mortgage payment for the last few months

again, thanks to Ken D!

Rick's just too easy to deal with. Sold 3 books that had not seen the light of day in years with no probs what so ever. Thanks for a very easy deal, Rick.

I concur...ken's reputation preceeded him, but always better to experience in person (thumbs u

Some terrific books poppin' up on the Boards of late!

 

Continuing the collection parade, here are two of my new favorites - I don't think it's going too far out on a limb to call them "rare" (Larson copy on the right):
