I see this book every once and awhile on ebay. Anyone know anything about it? I didn't see it listed in the Guide. Is this Bernard Bailey art?

Nice group of promos, AA - I like 'em a lot!

[ArAich]

Thanks...they usually go pretty cheap and I can't seem to stop buying them...

Me too, although I haven't bought any for a while.

There are a zilllion variants because they revised and reprinted them year after year.

 

What are the numbers (probably all APG-17-something since they're all Adventures in Science Series, not the earlier Adventure Series) and years on the ones you just posted, if you don't mind my asking?

Inside the Atom has some of the best interior pages, and Adventures in Jet Power may have the most variants.

 

Thanks,

Jack

Supergear, the rarest DC of them all. I've seen two in thirty years. Warning, big scan, that's why I'm linking it.

Speaking of DC, anyone know what's up with the DC Comic Cavalcade (1944) promo?

 

A dealer had three ( ) of them at Wizard L.A., and I've seen yet another on another private sales list.

Never thought they were all that rare, Steve. I've had one for 20 years and actually passed on a small stack of them once.

 

 

[esquirecomics]

This one you don't see often.

I don't have this one. I have "Cooperative."

Just curious - I like the book, but it is expensive in the Guide and I worry.

 

Haven't seen the 1945 version before.

This 1945 version is the only copy I've ever seen. I bought it from Motor City about 2 or 3 years ago at the SD Con.

Does anyone else own a copy of this book?
