skypinkblu Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Great thread, Tim:) I was all excited, I thought I had your missing book, but I didn't realize you needed the regular one. I'm pretty sure I only have the Whitman version. I've always picked up Whitman versions, I figured they were a little different. I've never, however, seen those wonderful boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormboy Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Not Whitman related, but a cool UK ad. Nice! I'll change the thread title to remove Whitman, maybe more people can contribute? I love how they didn't use the Marvel trade ads, but had to do something completely different with the ads. Maybe the U.S. style was just too bombastic?

wormboy Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Here are the In-Store retail posters for both Superman/Spider-Man books. This one is framed on my wall. The 'window-facing' stickers are still on the piece, under the frame. This one I haven't framed yet - still in shrink wrap! bikesnbuses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormboy Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 I had the opportunity to pick up a few Don Rosa Treasuries from Steve Wyatt a long time ago - thanks Steve! I had never seen a Treasury with a Pedigree before (or since now that I think about it). They are stunning examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HouseofComics.Com Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Whoa! That's wild. And since you posted this one - have you all ever seen this before? Key Comics was selling it on eBay not too long ago. I had never heard of this before, but it's cool! Joe Kubert drew the first, rejected, unpublished version of the cover to this Treasury! Thanks to eBay and Key Comics for the images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormboy Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 More fun facts. Many of you may have seen the two Oz Treasuries - the first a DC/Marvel Production, the second Marvel alone. There was a third book planned that was never printed! Here is the cover by John Buscema (thanks to sorcerorsskull.blogspot.com for the image and story).

wormboy Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Found another. Great copy. It is my opinion that the Whitman version of this book was much more plentiful than the regular version. I had a harder time finding the regular version in High Grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
