The Vacation Funnies is the glossiest book I've had to date, almost need shades to block the reflection. My old Man used to have a copy of this book that I'd read when visiting his old room at my grandma's house. He would have been eleven when he bought it of the rack. I would have been about same age when I read thru it. The Bug's #28 in keeping with my new obsession for football covers. Your Dad had great tastes in cartoon characters. Why oh why don't my fellow Boardies utilize the 'Looney Tunes' Thread more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 No taste is my guess. The focus of the vast majority of Golden Age comic collectors these days is limited to the superhero and horror genres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Because I'm down to 32 books to go for my Looney Tunes run, and I often don't feel like scanning my older books? With that said, there was ECCC last weekend, so a few holes did get filled... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 And a couple more: One of these days I'll get bored and post the 170 consecutive issue run I've got. This is not that day, however. :-) aardvark88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admittedly i cherry picked most of my LTMM run (War, Holiday, just plain cool, Early, etc, )plus i've got giants, FC, March of Comics, Super Book of Comics, and Foreign editions also. This will make a nice group shot when you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 And just to mix it up a little, with another ECCC snag... I want to say dollar bin, might have been $3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'm specifically trying for the Mary Jane & Sniffles stories, but if that's your project there's no reason to look for 238 issues of Looney Tunes but skip the last 8. I've also got the full run of Giants, as they all have MJ & S stories, but other than a few odd books here and there I haven't bothered with the other titles and spin-offs. I should look into the MJ & S text stories in Porky Pig one of these years, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 (edited) Here's a book I picked up at Terry's Yorba Linda Show for $5. I read it today and it contained some great stories and I'm not even a Western guy. Check these out if you get a chance; it's a great run.

This title was so popular that a high quality copy of it was made that looks nearly perfect. And try and find a copy of Hi-Spot #2, it is a very rare E. R. Burroughs title.
