Not sure. My crossover books had been coming in lower until the last batch when a couple came in higher -- which is a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4GEMWORKS Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Missing Four Color 1339 I have been looking for this book everywhere in high grade. DTA collectibles had it in an auction at a nosebleed price. After it ended I was able to make a fair deal. I consider this one of the finest additions to my Four Color collection. It rarely even shows up on EBay and when it does it usually garbage. sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty Mann Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) While posting this image I remembered I have two copies of this issue. One of the early FLYING SAUCER comics Wrap-around cover with the FLYING SAUCERS on the back which I didn't notice when I first saw this issue. Might consider parting with one of them sometime.

Scrooge Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I have been slooooowly scanning my four color run and ran into this one. The cover is humdrum but if instead of being a wraparound, all had been in front it would have elevated the issue by so much - Marty Mann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Compare this to this Zorro cover which works equally well as a stand-alone front cover and a wrap-around - Marty Mann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Mann Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Now you got me going through my 4-colors for other wrap-around covers. Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Mann Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Not a wrap-around but a very interesting back cover. Get Marwood & I, Scrooge and AJD 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Yes! I saw that one last night. Very cool. The colors really pop in your scan. A couple of westerns also had some nice back covers - AJD and Marty Mann 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4GEMWORKS Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 It's not Four Color or Dell, but I was scanning all my EC and Gaines File copy related books and came across this. Nice wrap around cover and the first comic book.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Low grade, missing back cover... But I'm happy to be able to say I've got a book from FC series 1. Picked up at ECCC today for not very much money at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
