Considering it was given out as a subscription premium in 1953, you are probably right.

Somewhere I have an irradiated dime they were giving out at the NY World's Fair in '64 or '65!! It was in a nice little plastic holder emblazoned with the nuclear symbol. Imagine trying to hand those out today!!

I have had one of those at one time. Yeah, a different time. Kind of like old Vaseline Glass objects that have radioactive material that makes the rim glow. Just couldn’t do that now days.

I have “accumulated” a lot of these encapsulated cents over the years. Advertising promotional items.

Other than the Dell Comics one, here is the only other comic related one I have come across. This is from the Pioneer Co that made items for boys in 1946. Featured Superman and Lone Ranger. I actually have a beautiful Superman box lid for socks from this company.

That has got to be a hard book to find in decent shape. That looks like a nice copy. Congratulations!

Thanks.  It's a nice vg copy with everything securely attached.  It definitely doesn't seem to show up very often so I was happy to get it.

So, my regular comic shop offered me the first shot at a stack of over 40 Dells, at roughly $5 a book if I grabbed them all.  About half WDC&S and half Raggedy Ann and Andy.  I was of course interested in all of those, for the Kelly, Barks, and Stanley stories.  Oddly enough, what interested me least was the Raggedy Ann & Andy 4C's, but even then at $5 each they're definitely books I wanted to grab:

I really dislike threads like this sometimes.  Someone posted a Target: The Corruptors awhile back, and thought it looked like it was a 60s TV show so I looked at Youtube.  Now I've wasted 6 hours watching 6 episodes...and I'm not done yet.  :facepalm: :whatthe: lol

I think I was the last person to post that one.  Sorry, not sorry. :kidaround:
