Post your Goodman Red Circle ⭕️ Pulps 0

[Primetime]

I picked up a MSS #2 (Nov, 1938 - Frank R. Paul cover) today at a local show. Here’s my 1-3 run @Ameri

This isn’t an official red circle but I’ll park it here. Manvis Publications (which was still a Goodman production), April - 1941 one shot. It has wonderful Kirby and Schomburg interior sketches. Somewhat of a common later pulp…but this 1st season (episode 29) of Star Trek reminds me of the creatures on the cover of the Uncanny Stories @Ameri

This arrived today. 

Marvel Stories (Nov, 1940) 

-JW Scott cover 

- on the stands roughly same time as Marvel Mystery Comics #13 

- interior sketch credited to Simon & Kirby 

- nice skinny house ad for Marvel (Mystery) Comics  

- Carl Burgos Human Torch comic strip which advertises Marvel (Mystery) Comics. Goodman was already excelling in cross marketing amongst his products - something he would rampantly do in the Marvel silver age. There are at least two other westerns that have the Burgos Torch strip, and these are both cheaper than the Marvel Stories (but may be a little more difficult to locate): 

Two- Gun Western Novels (Oct 1940)

Best Western (October, 1940) 

The sidebar along the spine was becoming a Goodman trademark. The Marvel Stories sidebar text reminds me of Marvel Mystery Comics 9 (July, 1940) @Ameri
