It's a task to even find a USA 7.It very well may be in the top 20 classic GA covers.Just put aside 20 dollars a week and by the time you find one you should have a sizeable chunk saved.GOD BLESS...

Oh I forgot about the Action #2 I will eventually have to find. Maybe I can find that in some garage sale or something. Anyone feel up for some charity? 893crossfingers-thumb.gif

 

Tery-Toons 1 from Timely may be my favorite paratrooper cover. I could picture it right away but couldn't remember it exactly. Not as expensive as Action Comics 2, but I've heard that it's harder to find.

 

In case it's not obvious, I like "themed cover" hunts.

 

Good luck.

Ok my Photo Journal Guide to Comics finally arrived. Now I have been looking through both books for Paratrooper covers from the golden age, there are a lot more than I thought. I'll make a list when I have looked through all books, I'm on S now. So far I think my "grail" for this collection is going to be Action Comics #2. Anybody have one for sale?
