Comichut - Thanks for sharing those pages A man of few words but oh boy not only your copies are WOW but you present us with books we have never seen - a true connoisseur. Actually puts me to shame trying to put this one in this thread (+ it is out of jon's imposed time range) but it is another (and my only) Zolne cover

You just be as "esoteric" as you want to, Jon; It's what makes your posts all the more interesting!

Great books everybody

 

This is the copy that was featured in the Gerber PhotoJournal. Most of the other Peps pictured in the PhotoJournal are from the Church collection, but a few are not. Anyone know where the missing Church Peps are?

 

Sorry it's so dark, I'm not sure what my scanner's issue was.

A 7.5 Pep #24? It's official, I hate you 143ksk. My copy that took forever to find had a completely taped spine and a MAJOR spine roll.

 

Green with envy,

Nearmint, that book looks too nice to be a non-pedigree copy.

I use to have the 1-5.....they wound up with Steve G. in 1999 when i 'traded' them to Alex Acevedo....the rest of them could have been picked up for a song in the second (?) Sotheby auction.....jon

 

oh...bye the bye....great book....

It's from the Charles Strong collection. He was an editor for Nedor, and kept a single copy of every comic he edited. His books are definitely pedigree quality, but the collection probably wasn't large enough to achieve pedigree status. The Thrilling #33 & 38 posted earlier in the thread are from the same collection, as is my Exciting #30. I suspect my America's Best #6 is also from the same collection, but don't know for sure. I wish I'd purchased more!

Hey Jon:

 

Do you know what the latest number Pep was in the Larson collection? The only Larson Pep I ever owned was number 7--bought straight from Joe Tricarichi many years ago.
