MM Mags & WDC&S pics

[tb]

If you see/know of better copies, I'd very much like to hear about it (will pay very well for issues that I need).

Good looking books, if I ever remember to look when I'm making my rounds I'll see if I can help you out.

Thanks, Brian. I've started adding my early WDC&S as well. Same holds for these.

Great scott those are some amazing covers! Even this precode horror collector loves 'em.

Those are some sweet books - thanks for showing them off!

Thanks for posting the pictures of the books. They are very nice copies of some great Disney comics. Have you ever seen the mailing envelope that was produced for subscriptions?

[tb]

No, I haven't. Do you have a picture?

 

[TomG]

I believe that I still have one. I will post a picture when I find it as it will be a few days till I get a chance to look.

Do you have any of the dairy giveways that predated the magazine or the Bibo & Lang book?

[Bronty]

Now THAT is a Disney collection! WOW.

I used to collect the two earlier series as well, but my interest faded as

I discovered that these have nothing in common with the 3rd series besides

the title. Whereas the 3rd series had beautiful artwork and an interesting

development, the first two are probably the least remarkable 1930s Disney

childrens books. The scan below shows two copies from Series 1, which

may well be the most impossible run of any Disney title to complete. Only

recommended for the very hardest of hard core collectors .

I worked at Disney and it freaked me out to see Mickey imprints in the cement walkway leading up to the door. I thought that was a little over the top. But this guy -- whoa.

Gosh - there's a whole other side to D. Dupcak that I never knew about! A kinder, more "animated" side...

 

Yikes!

[garthgantu]

HKP: Most impressive! That's a beatiful run... I'd love to see the rest of the WDC&S lineup when you've scanned it... at least the first 100 issues!

 

Do you have all the early Mickey and Donald appearances in Four Color as well ?

How humbling - makes me feel like crawling back under my sorry little mouseshaped rock...

 

Actually, as I think I've said before, I don't really like Disney. Like Joanna, I used to work for their movie division and wouldn't dream of going back. I've largely stopped bying Disney comics except for high grade MM Mags and early WDC&S (which are just too beautiful to let go of) and early Barks originals. Otherwise, I am moving into other GA titles (learning about these is what has kept me coming back to these forums every time I swore that I'd leave). My entire Disney collection fits easily into a small cabinet and I want to keep it like that. I do have nice copies of almost all the early WDC&S, though, which I want to add to the page when I get time. If other people have nice collections and want to help, I would very much like to hear from them.

There's a high grade run of WDC&S 1-16 on ebay. Really nice books.
