Hey Gang

After 2 years this mini run is over. This tittle sparked my interest back into golden age two years ago. Thank you to all the boardies for the support and friendship during this process. The goal is to upgrade as time continues and also will start the mission to put together my beloved fight run back like I did a 8 years ago. 

Holy bananas! That's *awesome*, Ivan! And strong colors on a lot of those puppies!

I just love the Rangers run. 2 years is an amazing accomplishment. Some tough and nearly impossible books in that run. Congrats! 

Thank you @Electron for the kind words. Really appreciate it

Thanks John. Yes, some of those have nice covers.

I love the Rangers title too. I don't have Ivan's killer run!, but I've got some pretty ones.

What a beautiful group! That #3 is so tough. I’ve just about given up trying to find that one...

[Point Five]

Thanks guys! The #13 and #19 here are particular gems. They were from that complete run of Rangers that was auctioned on ebay the winter before last... some of you here might remember. Quite the feeding frenzy!

Yep yep. I angsted over both of those but couldn't swing 'em. A fellow boardie did get the #3 and posted it.

As I recall, some books were undergraded, some had random flaws and were actually a bit overgraded, but the eye appeal/freshness on nearly all of them seemed pretty darn nice.

One step closer to have issue 1 to the big 5 FH tittles 😍

I remember those books as well. Still kicking myself for not getting the 2.

Awesome Wings 1, Ivan! Pretty under appreciated FH title in my opinion. Some very cool stuff inside those books! Congrats!!

Cool book Miami, congrats! Yeah, great WWII aviation content in that one. All the #1's from the big six huh? That will be a nice group. I have only two and most likely be as far as I get. Wouldn't mind a Planet #1 though. Never owned one. I've picked at the run for like forever and only have about 2/3rds of them. 

[Robot Man]

Some consolation though. I'm probably just one of a few members of the "Wings of America" club...

Very nice Jungle 1 RM! I just love the face Fine drew on that Lion.

These are great RM. I thought it was 5 tittles but you are most likely correct and I missed one

 

Planets are tough.  I had to sacrifice a lot to get my planet 1 and I'm still missing a few pages

 

That jungle one is so pretty

I didn't know this existed and I need it in my life

 

RM I assume these don't pop up often huh

Well now, it's right there on the lower left corner of your entombed funny book. Has a nice ad inside if you want to join. Seriously, I've had it for years. Probably got it in a Hakes auction. About the only place stuff like this turns up. I would imagine pretty scarce. How many people would relate it to the comic book unless you were a collector and knew to look for it?
