When the Comic Promotional Ad Gets You Salivating More Than The Book You Own!

This back cover is from December 1941

 

From:

Marvel Mystery Comics #26 & Mystic Comics #7

 

Was it used as a generic back cover for other Timely's of the same month ?

Here's an ad for the 1st Archie from Top Notch Laugh 31's Percy story.

That is so cool

Durden, that pic gives me chills, I love it... very historical. awesome !!

Maybe an interesting item: I thumbed through the More Fun 32 and checked out the Dr. Occult story (by Siegel & Shuster). The last page of the story says "To Be Continued". However it never was, as Overstreet lists this issue as Dr. Occults last GA appearance.

 

I suppose Siegel & Shuster were taken off this book to work on Action Comics #1 which debuted that same month.
