To this day people sometimes have issues getting the characters on-model. I've actually seen discussions where people point out where bootleg merchandise actually is more accurate than official; if you like the character enough to do a rip-off art you care more about the character than the people for who it is just a paycheck sometimes...

OtherEric Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 191 and County Fair 1-and-only: I'm guessing they replaced the Halloween issue with County Fair to try and improve the on-sale window of the book, but that's purely speculative. It's a neat oddity, in any case. My copy actually looks better in person; that scan shows every flaw to maximum detriment. It has the best spine I've ever seen on a Dell giant and amazing gloss.

OtherEric Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 (edited) It looks like these got lost somewhere in the edits, but it looks like NOW it's letting me fix it. 195 and 196 Edited April 12, 2017 by OtherEric Error with images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Last one was 195 and 196, it's not letting me edit to add text for some weird reason. Here's 197 and 198. Note the 198 is the 15c variant, the only one where I have that version: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've come full circle, ( and a cool rare Daffy cover from the era). Daffy will be 80 years old next Tuesday! That's a lot of burbon under the bridge baby! (I heard Sinatra say that once to Sammy Davis on a show biz milestone salute on TV some years ago). Just sounds bada** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 211 and 212 just above, I forgot to add the numbers. And now we wind up Vacation Funnies with #9, and 213 of the regular series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 214 and 215. 214 was one of my earliest issues, possibly even the third I got. The "Bugs sweeping stuff somewhere inappropriate" gag was used several times on covers, but this is my favorite variation on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
