By the way is that your Vette? If so it looks like a beut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to find that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. lol. I have time though, one will find me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also a believer in cars finding their new owners! Tell me what was that '74 like with the 454? Curious if that motor was too heavy for the car.

Popular Post AJD Posted May 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2020 $6,300... Wow - that is a lot! I'm grateful for my much lower grade copy. It's pretty enough for me and I can open and read it. telerites, dikran, Yellow Kid and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometime back in the late nineties there was a great selection of very early WDCS from an original owner at San Diego. I mulled over lots of those including the book above but finally pulled the trigger on #13 for somewhere in the $800 range as I recall. Seemed like a lot at the time but they aren't too easy to find in decent shape. Wonder how many people are putting a high grade run together? No easy task. I'll stick with decent sub 9.0 books!!

I don't collect ducks or really funny animal so there are so many I hadn't seen. This one is crazy and so NPC in today's realm. Young uns' smoking cigars and the use of the word midget. Wild. Is that date stamp Sep 9 or Sep 19? Just curious because my daughter's b-day is 9-19. Cool book and looks real sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gadzukes Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Not a comic book, but I picked it up on a whim the other day (price was right). 1944 telerites, tth2, Robot Man and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gadzukes Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 These are all very low grade (and a couple are incomplete), but I'm glad I've picked them up through the years. I think my favorite is the Mickey Mouse Magazine "transition" comic in the lower right which came out 1 month before WDC&S 1 telerites, OtherEric and AJD 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes Disney would go into fits if someone proposed publishing a book like this today!! Different world!

Badger Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Nice! I'm still paying off a grail or I would have taken a run at that FC #16. Mickey, especially by Gottfredson, is an honorary Duck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be honest, I never thought I'd win it (especially at that price!) thanks for not bidding Now if only I could find a cheap Pirate Gold and WDCS 31...

Robot Man Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Mailman brought me this cool boards purchase today. Can't remember last time I bought a WDCS. I thought I'd seen them all but this one was a bit of a surprise when I saw it. Nice, early Barks issue. I also collect holiday covers. Happy to get it. Even like the WWII slant on the back cover subscription pitch. It also reminds me that I will probably have to wait until then to hopefully walk the streets without a hazmat suit... tth2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
