shiverbones Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 That's a fun book I have wanted for some time now. That & Donald and the Wheel. I am not sure why I find them so appealing, but I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Here is my little ducky. I'm glad you've posted that. I have a copy of the other, # 1198. Was this a reprint within the FC series? How many other instances of this was there. I think it did happen with Dumbo, are those it? Here's my copy of 1198 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 These are great books, I highly recommend them if your interest in comics goes beyond the simple story. Disney or Western was trying to make a run at the educational market with these and some of the other fifties books like those about Space. I have some great Disney soft bounds from the True Life Adventure series as well as the Space series that are pictorial educational books. I still refer to them today at times as they are so well done. Here is my little ducky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 At every show I go to I look to pick up a nice F-VF Comics and Stories from the mid forties for about $50. It is getting a little harder these days but I am usually successful. I usually poke around in the boxes of the book dealers who have the offhand box of comics. There is usually interesting stuff in there and quite often some old WDC&S. A great book to collect! I got turned onto these early Comics and Stories books by Gary Sassaman who had a table at a Seuling show in the early 70's and was selling early 50's Comics and Stories for $1. I picked up several and still have them. Gary is currently the program and communications director for Comic Con and a pretty talented guy. He also had a fanzine for awhile called Innocent Bystander.

HouseofComics.Com Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 That's a great name for a fanzine, IMO. I love your stories and look forward to meeting you at Wondercon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnat1000 Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Is anyone planning on grabbing some of the WDC&S that are on the heritage auction next week? A lot of 9.0+ books. Would love to get at least one but I know they will go for way over grade just like the last auction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Anyone else noticing how issues #38, 41 -46, 48 are becoming a lot tougher? I am not sure why exactly, but dealer lists are mostly out, and they are on ebay far less frequently. This is my favorite era (#31-51) so I have been paying a lot of attention & am really shocked at the dearth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
