I know this crosses the 10 cent line a little, but I hope you guys will be okay with that.

 

I just picked up this nice Action 270, which gives me 28 consecutives issues from 261 to 298. I need 260 and 299 to have 250-414!

 

Some really nice covers in this mini run!

 

Another cool thing is the transition in the pricing fonts from the classic 10 cent one to what became the classic 12 cent one.

I love this period in Action. When I was a kid I got some of them and they really made me a Superman family fan. All kinds of minor keys in there and early Legion appearances.

FrontierFighters5.jpg Here's Frontier Fighters #5, agaiin, DC"S attempt to exploit Crockett Mania in the mid fifties. This title lasted only eight issues and are tough to fight in grade.

 

Very nice. I only have a couple of Frontier Fighters. I do have 1-8 of the Legend of Daniel Boone though.

 

Here's a fairly nice FF that I do have

From a couple pages back, but here's my Frontier Fighters 1

I was recently de-slabbing this nice Superboy 67:

and while browsing through it, saw this house ad:

 

bizarro.jpg

 

This is pretty interesting because it marks the first appearance of Bizarro, also, his design changed from this house ad to the one used in Superboy 68, it never had a "B" on the chest, and....it marks the first time (to my knowledge) that an issue of Superboy did a "coming next issue" kinda blurb.

 

I love finding stuff like this :banana:
