Montezuma,

I went through all 161 pages as well over the past few days, marking down the ones that I saw, though I may have missed a few where I couldn't read the number.  I came up with 63 issues not shown which is similar to your list, though I didn't include the 'missing number' issues.  I went through the ones I had close at hand and photographed 37 of the 63 which I'll post in subsequent posts.

Here are the ones that are left which I didn't see:

 

8 Tillie the Toiler

13 Mr. District Attorney

52 Little Orphan Annie

65 Smitty

294 Little Beaver

340 King/Royal

398 Brownies

469 Beetle Bailey

509 Pluto

706 Bongo and Lumpjaw

740 Chilly Willy

743 Daisy Duck’s Diary

746 Dotty Dripple and Taffy

750 The Great Cat Family

938 Elmer Fudd

965 Grandma Duck’s Farm Friends

979 Oswald

1197 The Aquanauts

1201 Goofy

1206 Lolly and Pepper

1245 Sherlock Holmes

1246 Mickey Mouse Album

1271 Yogi Bear Birthday Party

1332 Bachelor Father

1333 Short RIbs

1337 Dr. Kildare

Quite an amazing amount of work my both Montezuma and kaculler

I wonder if we ever actually had all of the images up at one time or had some dropped off  prior to the final ones being posted.

With all the kaculler  filled in  I am guessing that we can finish this list off by the end of March

I can add quite a few more now, but I have many sources to search for the scans  until I finish organizing those.  

While I have most of the missing  I know that I do not have a 13 District Attorney

 

398, 509, 706, 743, and 746

I am nearly done with the renaming of 750+ books  in the early part of my Four Color collecting (and trusting them to photobucket)

Next on to the second phase of my naming conventions.After fixing those  I can begin to integrate.  I don't think that there will be too many duplicates  as I  did not start actively seeking upgrades to the low grade books until the last 5 or so years.

 

I still have all of the newer scans  that are on this computer  but never uploaded to work with  for a fully organized scan collection

Here are the last two that I can cross off the list  from this portion of my collection.  If my count is correct that only leaves  14 more issues  to have them all available in this thread.  not including Missing issues and maybe  First Series

The first series is complete in this thread so we're good on that.  I count 14 left as well, though my list was slightly different from Montezuma's list so I've started going through to check any discrepancies.  He has Tillie the Toiler #8 as being posted so I may have missed that one.

I think that most of the discrepancies have actually been posted in the thread, but it is easy to miss them in 162 pages.  Here are the others that he didn't have marked off which I did.  I listed the date when the picture appears in the thread for the ones I've located so far.

Such beautiful books  that Glen  had  in his collection.  U am placing bids on most of them, but mostly for purposes of tracking.   Bidding more agressively  on the few  that I do not have at all.  If I am lucky enough to win one I am sure it will NEVER need an upgrade.

Here are the few  from  set two
