50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Where can I find this poster? I think you clip the order coupon from the bottom of the book and send it in with a silver certificate dollar. Then they will send you a poster and 12 issues of Walt Disney's Comics and Stories. Quite a deal, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30sFlashGordon-migration Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 (edited) I meant where could you find it today. Not in 1949 has anyone seen any of these posters advertised on the back of WDC&S in recent years?

AJD Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I can't recall ever seeing one for sale. I checked the Heritage archives and, assuming that 'walt poster' and a few similar terms would have found it, they haven't sold one. Given the popularity of WDC&s though, there's bound to be some out there...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJD Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I have been steadily upgrading my Scrooge collection. My focus is the original Barks books (1-71). I've just got some new early ones, and I really like the way the collection is coming along. I have been trying to work out how to take a mega group shot, but I think I'll do it in lots of 10. Here's the first: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 It's been a good week at my mailbox. As well as some beautiful early Scrooges, I got four more 1964 Australian Mobil giveaways. There are 24 of these. I bought my first in early 2004, now I have 22 of them. Looking for #9 and 10... Here's the new ones. And I wanted to show this panel (which in this size comic is a full page). The Australian colouring went through several changes. In the first half of the 1960s it was at its best (IMHO) - and I think this panel is sensational. Enjoy.

HeyMoe Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Were these the ones I saw on EBAY recently? It's been a good week at my mailbox.

I've tried some dealers and always look in antiques/collectable shops, but never see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the first: Now that shot consists of ten of the best stories in all comics! OK, I exagerrate a bit, issue #3 (495) isn't that great but the rest are downright genius.

Scrooge Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 How come no one is mentioning the Walt Kelly cover of WDCS 45 on the upcoming Heritage auction? Has this been sold elsewhere recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MstrTech Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hey Scrooge, It sold last year in the Feb. Auction for $28,680. My dad was thinking about it then not so much now. Been busy since the Nov. Sig. Auction w/ the Uncle Scrooge books and finally made it to the top of the Registry. Dad received a big box of Ducks today so here goes. Don't have scans of the US books that got him over the hump yet. (thumbs u Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MstrTech Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Really like the covers on the 120 & 134. (thumbs u Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MstrTech Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Got a chance to scan these this weekend. The US 15 was enough to get my dad to that #1 spot on the Registry. Lots of good books in the coming weeks, too many to choose from. Enjoy. (thumbs u Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of good books in the coming weeks, too many to choose from. Enjoy. (thumbs u Andrew Nice books and congrats on the #1 spot! The Uncle Scrooge 15 is tough in high grade. The census shows three file copies in 9.4, a 9.0 and then it's your 7.5 and 3 at 7.0 - and that's it. There are twice as many 14s and 16s in corresponding grades. I had to wait quite a while to find a decent raw copy - and it's a 6.5/7.0 Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Is there a nicer run of forty in comicdom? I think these covers are classics. There's a few here I'll upgrade at some stage, but the run is looking good. (Apologies for running the first pic again, but I thought they would look nice together.) I'll do the rest of the Barks originals next time (#41-71). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffman_Comics Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 Way to go, Andrew! Have you finished the run yet, and if so, what's next? WDC&S? Respectfully, The person who has benefited so much from your undercopies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
