jmg3637 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 There is no rush on emptying your cart scrooge. I probably wont have time to build and send them a box for trade until after my tax season in October. I enjoy searching their new in stock daily. The other day I added two books to my basket and by the next morning they had both been sold. Guess those (1102A and 1164 )might have been harder issues to locate. I hope to at least break 1200 issues by the end of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dell and Gold Key really rocked it with the painted covers over the years. The Turoks were a cover phenomenon unto themselves. My younger brother collected them and I read them but I used to drool over those early Dell issues which we used to pick up at garage sales for a nickel or ten cents. Them was the days! He sold them to my chagrin as I would love to have them now. Sqeggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Just now, BuscemasAvengers said: What? No love for an early Clint? I can dimly remember watching that show as a kid (maybe in reruns?). I remember it as being fun, but the few times I've watched 1950s/1960s Westerns in recent years, they really haven't held up. I watched an episode of Bonanza (probably the highest rated TV Western ever) a few years ago and I was struck by just how obvious it was that a lot of it was shot on a sound stage. Maybe I should track down an episode of Rawhide and watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were originally broadcast on much smaller and lower resolution screens which were much more forgiving. Plus the imagination was able to fill in a lot back then!! Good for the studios who can do reboots and remakes though! Hard to imagine that in another twenty years we'll look at the Potter and LOTR movies and think they look dated but I'm sure we will.
