thunsicker Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 12 minutes ago, Robot Man said: Cool, signed Alex Schomburg cover. Most of these are by him but very few are actually signed. I personally believe the Billy West is more likely than not a Schomburg as well. 5 and 6 look more like his signed covers to 7 and 8 than Celardo's previous covers.

Robot Man Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) Laugh #139 1962 Archie Pubs Scarce 15 cent variant. Archie very briefly tried out the market on their titles for a month or two in 1962. There were regular 12 cent versions and a limited test market 15 cent variations. Obviously, it didn't fly. Probably only the first one I've ever had. A nice, clean, bright complete copy. Bottom staple is popped. Tiny tip off bottom right corner. No tears, creases, splits or missing pieces. Just minor wear. Was $45. Now $35. Edited February 16, 2020 by Robot Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
