Popular Post Robot Man Posted June 8, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) SOLD! OK, flea Market weirdness time. This is the kind of stuff, I usually have in my booth at the monthly antique flea. New find and never been out. Alfred E Neuman (pre-MAD) pot metal Wall Plaque Most folks think MAD created this character but they didn't... They "borrowed" him from many different sources from way back to the turn of the century. This is an exceptionally early piece. Dated 1928. Bronze/gold painted relief with the trademark "Me Worry?" on it. The piece is 6" tall x 3-1/2" wide. Excellent condition. Rare is a very misused term but I think this qualifies. Find another one... $75. Edited June 9, 2022 by Robot Man Larryw7, ender, Pitboss and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted June 8, 2022 Author Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) War Stories #5 (#2) 1942 Western Pubs Great WWII cover and violent WWII content. Origin the Whistler kind of an Unknown Soldier type character. VERY violent and racist stuff! Both covers are neatly split and detached. Otherwise a very nice presenting copy.

Robot Man Posted June 8, 2022 Author Share Posted June 8, 2022 Witty Comics #2 1945 Chicago Nite Life News Pubs The cover says it all. Love the surprised look on the kid and even the dog looks shocked! Esoteric is putting it mildly. I forgot I had this. I paid dearly for Jon Berk's copy when it came up because I have always loved this one. Centerfold is missing and preceding 3 centerfold are very neatly detached. You really aren't missing much believe me. This one is mostly for the cover... Back cover has a couple ink pulls. $50. or I just hang on to it Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Balls Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I think GI in Battle is darker, the background (assuming it's the same background you shot the back cover on) is a different hue of blue than the front. But - cool cover. And my wife was an ER nurse, so it goes into the 'nurse cover' collection. elibowman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
