Popular Post Yorick Posted August 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2021 Red Book would also fall within this thread, correct? I seek some info on a couple 1925 issues if anyone here can help. I've been too focused on Blue Book.

waaaghboss Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 (edited) My first Mundy story, The Adventures of El-Kerak. I think I might just read it online, as this book feels pretty fragile. Were staples not used in this series in the early 20s? Book is firmly held to the binding, but I cant find the staples to save my life.

Adventure and other titles from Ridgway were cut on both sides (no signatures). The spine side was glued to a piece of cloth that looks like a strip from an old school white bandage and the cover was glued on to the cloth. Advantage: No rusty staples. Disadvantage: Like vintage paperbacks, suspectible to spine cracks if handled roughly. IIRC, the title switched to staple-bound when it was taken over by Popular Publications. I could be wrong about this, but definitely early 30s issues were bound in the way i just described. waaaghboss and rjpb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
