rjpb Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 matewan - cool books. What do F.D.C. and S.N.D. stand for, are they distribution companies? If memory serves P.D.C. stands for Printed in the Dominion of Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If memory serves P.D.C. stands for Printed in the Dominion of Canada. I have no idea what those initials stand for. I'm not sure if I ever found that out when I was doing my research on these seven or eight years ago. I've always wondered how rare the Blazing Canadian edition is. The guy from whom I bought it said he believed it to be extremely rare, as he'd had it for years and years and had never found another copy. He said there might only a handful of copies, if that many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racnek63 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I bought this about 20 years ago. Anyone know what number it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stronguy Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Here's a copy of Amazing Mysteries #35 I just picked up this weekend. The cover is from AM #32 but the guts are AM #35 (crime stories). The inside front and back cover are blank and all of the mail-in coupons from the ads are blanked out.

comicnut Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 The number should be on the back cover! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racnek63 Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 The number should be on the back cover! You're right. It's Vol. 4, No. 11. Guess that's why I never became a detective. (Although in my defence it always had a backing board.) Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timulty Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I am glad you told him though. I collect Captain Marvels(Non Canadian) and that is an interesting tidbit of info to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicnut Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 No probs, I've owned about half of the Canadian Anglo American and Bells. As I recall there were 12 issues printed per volume for Captain Marvel (not so for all titles), so you have #47. Also, fighting back through the cobwebs, I would recall you add about 6 to the number to get the equivalent US edition. I've owned the Cdn version of #18 too! I should mention I buy all Cdn GA comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 The canadian reprints of US books suck, I agree, but I thought this thread was about canadian 'whites' (mostly original and very rare B&W GA cdn comics). I live in canada and although I haven't actively collected for a couple years, in the 15+ years of active collecting, attendance at cons, etc. I can only recall being offered one canadian white. I wasn't actively seeking them out, but still.... I looked at thousands upon thousands upon thousands of books at dozens and dozens of cons... and one copy of one issue (!) turns up??

CArchivist-migration Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 This is not one of the Canadian Whites, but it is a cool Canadian book nonetheless. The interior is the same as Blue Beetle #50 Don't suppose you could let us (or me :-) ) know the name of the Canadian publisher here? my best -Ray Bottorff Jr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
