But this one is considered a classic cover by me................ This is a "Great" cover by Gross in my book, but I don't think any OG pulp collector would consider a single Detective Book cover as "classic", only us crime mag guys.

I'm not allergic to this paper ('pulps' become 'slicks'!). Would the originals of these be considered classic covers I wonder? I'll post a few, let the jury decide! Girasol reprinted a ton of "Great" covers. "Batman" i'd call "classic" jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course those collectors were rather old. These terms, however, replaced "The Bees-Knees cover art" employed by the prior generation.

ThothAmon Posted Sunday at 02:18 PM Share Posted Sunday at 02:18 PM This is classic, I’d assume CGC would agree. jimjum12 and Flex Mentallo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarg Posted Sunday at 06:08 PM Share Posted Sunday at 06:08 PM At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if CGC declared that "The Wicked Flea" cover of Weird Tales (October, 1925) was classic. The designation is now meaningless. ThothAmon, PopKulture and waaaghboss 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question to the CGC upper management...could there possibly be an online vote by collectors as to what pulp/comic issues we believe are actually classic and get that put on the label? jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No promises but, it can't hurt to try. Thank you so much Mike for passing this along. As some members mentioned here, there are certain covers that the collecting community have considered classic which have not been recognized by CGC and it would be great public relations if the collecting community would be allowed to have a say.
