generic user Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 The Roy Rogers Annual, even though it has a Dell imprint, was actually printed by Wilson Publishing in Canada. It was available only in Canada as well. It is a reprint of the first 4 issues. Thanks to Dell4c who informed me when I thought it was a "missing" dell book from my checklists. reprint or rebound? color or b&w innards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 AFAIK, color innards. Dell4c said they were reprints of the first 4 issue, with a new cover wrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozentundraguy Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Pretty similar cover: Beautiful book. I may have to thin out some of my B.A. books and work on obtaining some early Four Color issues. I spotted a copy of #88 on E-Bay yesterday, currently going for around $26. It's nowhere near the condition of your copy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozentundraguy Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I was going through my Four Color issues yesterday and ran across #649. I know I did not buy this book, but must have traded for it or bought it from a friend in the early 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montrealfilmguy Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Would it be frowned upon if i post books that are about to become mine and not scans but really good cover pictures.I have about 70 but maybe i'd post 10 and theyre all 2nd series ones.

montrealfilmguy Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Ok,then let's try this shall we ? There are no Carl Barks or Disneys in my soon-to-be Four color collection. Most of it is Zorros,a few Wyatt Earps,a bunch of Mavericks,that kind of stuff. I've submitted a question in the Ask CGC section about how to send them to get them graded,i'm still waiting on the posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I concur. I was going to mention that you have some sharp looking books in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montrealfilmguy Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Happy you chaps are enjoying them. Here's 10 more for your viewing pleasure Look closely at the top and the Dell logos,some of them seem to have a closer cutoff like the rifleman cover,is that what they call a trim ? Officer FRANK DREBIN !! I'll really have to scan them when they're at my place,also get 'em bagged and boarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJD Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Since I was in Photobucket anyway, here's a couple of nice late run issues to bump this thread: I picked up one of the Peanuts issues today - shall post in due course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transplant Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I like it. Great little book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Montrealfilmguy: Your Dell books just look to have an uneven factory cut. It isn't unusual for the top edge to be a bit higher or lower than 'usual' due to printing. Here's a fun Four Color I picked up recently. I like the single bold colour with relatively simple artwork that a lot of Dells had: I'd love to find nice copies of the other Dell Peanuts issues if anyone has a lead on some.
