Also there is a promo book Cocomalt from 1938 which I consider a Centaur even though I guess it's officially a Chesler book, but he was at/with Centaur at the time of publication.

 

Someone correct me if this is incorrect!!!!

Ooops. I think I just re-replaced it because the old scan was still showing up at the site. The mysterious "change graphic server" button needed to be hit. The replacement should show now. The cover image was about 550 pixels wide, so it looks good enough.

 

Anyone have a good scan of V3#6?

 

Thanks,

Jack

I know. In the recently uploaded section, the thumbnail was the correct new scan but the blow-up version was still the old pixelated version. Thanks for fixing that.

Centaur books started cover dated March 1938---the other books- with some continuation of titles- were published by Chesler or Ultem or Comic Magazine Co. I know folks want to lump these all as "Centaurs", but they are not. Are they 'related'- of course. Do you want to consider these "cousins" and make them part of the "Centaur Quest" is up to you.

 

Centaur with the Funnies Inc shop (which went onto be the foundation of Timely-) and Uncle Joe Hardie were the force behind these "pre-Timely" books.....
