Just snagged this. A classic cover that still flies a little under the radar apparently. The Kurtzman covers that follow get more attention, though I'm not entirely sure this isn't his work as well. GCD credits it to Joe Gallagher, but with a ?. 

 

OMG CONSIDER ME ENVIOUS!!!!!! What a BOOK!!!!!!!! and a CLASSIC COVER NO DOUBT!!!!! Great pickup brother!!

GREAT PICKUPs J!!!!!

Thanks pal! I bid on SO many lots & was under bidder on MANY of them. When I hear the name Jon Berk, I think of Larsons & Centaurs, at least I managed a bit of both.

That's because you're comic collecting royalty by virtue of having attended the Geppi Vault Opening, the greatest event in comic collecting history.

Hold on a sec. Wasn't the Berk Auction the greatest event in comic collecting history?

Congrats!

I believe you will be pleased when you see this in person.  The colors are more intense than you might guess from that scan.

Here is my final line-up, in chronological bidding order. No Church or Centaurs, but some nice connections to some of Berk's favorite things (Larson, Lou Fine, Planet OA). Plus a Platinum newspaper sheet from January 1906.
