While I have almost half of the First Series, that is one that I have not filled in yet. nice to see it As I am going through my collection for the umpteenth time I noticed the Jacky's Diary and was thinking that I had not seen a followup. Since this was usually a tryout series I was wondering what other attempts never got a second shot prior to the series demise? So we have the movie issues as well as some of the later issues like the other two below. Any other come to mind? Badger and kaculler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One that came immediately to mind is Four Color #309 with Betty Betz' Dollface and Her Gang. Another is Four Color #518 with Rivets, though the character did get three issues from another publisher.

jmg3637 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Another of the earliest one shots was I Met a Handsome Cowboy, but I dont have a scan handy Here is the last slab from the recent transaction with MCS. Guess the cost of working with them just went up as I saw they not charge Sales Tax for most of the country kaculler and Badger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jmg3637 Posted January 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2020 I have been working on refining my tracking system to include as much information as possible In the last month I have quick graded all of my collection and entered that data in a new section of my tracking sheet. I have also added another new section for value at time of trade (i.e.cost basis)where that information was available With the 1/2 dozen books on the way I am now down to just 109 issues missing and just over 200 that are in serious need of an upgrade I am now only one book (673) away from completing all of the 600's my first completed column Here are some of the First series issues, no idea when I posted them last. I am sure that many of them are on the "to be Upgraded" list, just not likely to happen for a long time Badger, AJD, PopKulture and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jmg3637 Posted February 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2020 Now that I have grades and costs in the RAW data section of my Spreadsheet I figured it was time to start really working with the DATA. I built a Query sheet where all I have to do is enter an issue number and I can see if the book is missing, or if I have it what grade and price info I have for my copy.. It is setup to permit many multiple queries on the same page. Really a useful tool when looking to fill holes and upgrade issues in a very compact manner. I plan on transfering the Thank You data from the Word Documnet into this sheet and would like to add the Title for each issue. as an aid. I was wondering if anyone here has list of titles in some kind of word doc, or spreadsheet the I can cut into mine? kaculler, Marty Mann, PopKulture and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmg3637 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 This was the version I developed a few years ago when the HAVE list exceeded 1100 and the wants dropped into the hundreds I added the upgrade section later MrBedrock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the only one you need is 917. It's got a bit of curve, detached top staple at cf, some rust on staples but if you want it you can have it. PM me if you do.
