I love it when you post runs :cloud9: ...Hey, Michael.... do you still have that area set up with every title that was on the stands in a certain month and year ? If so, do you have a picture and could you tell me what the date was ? GOD BLESS....

Sadly, I do not have the same set up any more. I've repurposed the shelves to hold TPBs and HCs and other sundry reprints I've accumulated these past 10 years so the comics are boxed. I still have all of them though.

This is what the March 1952 collection looked like when on display -

So my buddy and I were BOTH wrong..... we had a friendly 5 dollar wager, he said 1956 and I thought 1954 …..   GOD BLESS....

That is one of the most epic comic rooms I've ever seen. Man, I could have fun with those display cases!

Here's a few pages from Bible Tales For Young Folk # 1 ……. the first two are by a personal favorite artist that doesn't have the notoriety that some of the others enjoy, Sam Kweskin. GOD BLESS...

...while these may not excite many of you, I just snagged upgrades of three issues in my Bible Tales for Young Folks. I spent two years searching eBay every day to put together my first run..... the number 5 was easily the most difficult to find and the only one left that I need to find a VG/F copy of for my permanent run. For those not familiar with these, obviously they contain Bible stories.... but each one is drawn by the best of the best in the Atlas stable … Everett, Colan, Heath, Kweskin, Anderson, Robinson, Maneely, and more :cloud9: GOD BLESS...

Metro had a raw VF of #2 that a boardie now owns..... I almost went for it, but figured it would seem out of place in my lower grade run. Like you, it always seemed to me that pursuing them in high grade would be an exercise in futility …. GOD BLESS....

Thanks to the great boardie above, this cool Bill Everett covered book just arrived in my mailbox. Who says you have to have deep pockets to collect GA?

The Bill Everett covers in the jungle genre are some of my favorites that he ever did :cloud9: GOD BLESS...
