Scrooge Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I see that Monte is still on top of this thread as the spreadsheets are already updated I was at the Baltimore Con yesterday hanging out with Comics_n_erb but found time to raid A-1's Four Color offerings among others. Went home with a stack of 30. Only 3 have not been posted. See below. I also scanned the Three Little Pigs as it is one of my favorite pick-ups from yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Son, next time I catch you in the hemp field, I'll kick your butt from here to next Tuesday! Jack More ... I believe I have a Chilly Willy that's missing. I'll have to dig it out later to scan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 ... and last, Diver Dan - Bizarre! I had to look the show up on wikipedia. 1960, live action with puppet fish, filmed through an aquarium for aquatic effects. The fish with a cigarette (Trigger) cracks me up. There's a second issue featuring his mermaid friend. Diver Dan 2 Has anyone here ever seen the show? It looks like a precursor of Krofft shows like H. R. Pufnstuf.

Scrooge Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Never noticed the steed on the FC 11. Cool Did you get good deals on the FC at the Mound City auction? So, how many FC completionists do we really have here? I count: Montezuma - Done Einheri (sp?) - Almost Done, if not Done by now Bullet (?) - Still working on the high grade run jmg5783 - Getting there? Transplant - You're not going for the complete run though, right? Selegue - Slowly accumulating them all, correct? Scrooge - 300 issues away anyone else I forgot to mention?

Transplant Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I thought the books were purchased at very fair prices, low even. But I am definitely not going for the full run. Too many of the later covers that I have no interest in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Too many of the later covers that I have no interest in I should scan the Morty Meekle I got from Shark the other day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montezuma Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I've got a complete set, but I still need 126 issues that have comics on the back cover instead of ad's. I don't plan on getting all the issues with ads, but it's be nice to have a complete set of the comic pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 When did the variation start? Can you show us an example of two versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montezuma Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 The earliest ad back cover in my collection is 653, I have both versions, so they go back at least that far. I'll see if I can get some scans up. In most cases it's the back cover, and in some cases both the inside covers. I've come across some with blank inside covers as well, and have been told they're Canadian, however I also have Canadian copies without blank covers, so I'm not sure about that.

Scrooge Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Here are the both back covers for Perri 4C 847 Thanks! I love the Perri issue. Pulled mine out and I have the ad back cover Worst is I probably have had one or two dupes along the way and never checked for the back cover difference. Should have known better. Sorry I should have added you to the Completist List, right? I don't believe you are done but I believe you are close to done, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dell4c Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Well I'm sort of on the completest list _ I'm scanning or getting scans of every Dell issue - need 2 and a bit 4 colors and 508 more Dells in total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
