Those early Gold Key covers had multiple story taglines on multi panel covers but no word balloons. They did have square balloons inside though. There were some GK Donald Duck covers with dialogue... sort of. They had some interior panels reproduced on the cover. OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note the square word balloons!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Dell WDCS being one of the biggest sellers it would make sense he would have a subscription to keep tabs on what they were publishing.

I still need one of those but like to buy higher grade and don't really want to drop the change being asked for this book. It's by no means rare! Actually thought some of the Duck Four Colors went for reasonable money on Heritage last night. Maybe things are calming down? OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
