Ok, so technically my Hyper-Mystery #2 isn't "classic". That's what I get for posting on a thread early and misinterpreting the mandate.

 

I'll replace that selection with this one, which I think better fits the theme:

Hey Showcase4, I am impressed! BCM50 is definately top 2 or 3 covers of all time in my book!

 

classic per overstreet, and I agree....

 

 

One of My favorite Disney covers, SHOULD be a classic....

 

 

And a recognized disney classic (Though many will have a nicer copy then me...)

I really like that WDCS v4#9, with Donald and the Dwarfs, especially the oddly evil looking duck head on the bass Happy is playing. I've never seen that one before. Very nice!

Designated by Overstreet as a "Classic Biro hanging & hatchet cover"

Thanks CentaurMan! Great colors, "Evil duck Bass" gag, composition, its really got everything going for it. One of Walt Kelly's Best out of dozens of gems.

 

Really Like that Crime Does Not Pay Matt, and you have a great looking copy!

[shiverbones]

Dang, everytime I See that phantom lady It knocks me out, what a cover!

[CentaurMan]

Designated by Overstreet as a "Classic Biro hanging & hatchet cover"

 

Yes, it's definitely much better than the typical Biro hanging & hatchet cover.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again: Sweet books Alton. Hard to top your Supes 14 & 24, especially in such nice shape.

 

I just realized I dont think I have any books in my collection that Overstreet officially labels as "classic". I would say this book is the closest one I have to being recognized by many as classic:

 

 

There's no doubt that's a classic cover.

OH, and CentaurMan, that All American is my favorite DC cover from the GA, it just screams classic! One day, I will own one, that is a promise! I guess its technically a halloween cover judging by content and publication month, so it should be on My Halloween covers list....

my fault for nor clarifying the definition of "classic cover"....this is a beautiful book, and I don't care what any Guide says........sure looks like a "Classic" to me. Thanks for posting this gem!

If anyone knows where to find an unrestored VF copy of this book with nice eye appeal, I think it would bring $8-10,000 at auction (I'd pay this myself, more for higher grades). Mentioning this in case some long term owners haven't been following the market recently.

Here's Batman #17...classic war bonds/eagle cover...

classic photo cover

 

[showcase4]

fortunately this qualifies as a Classic Cover, so we should admire it for many hours.....
