it does not look like we will get anywhere close to all of them in the year. I am sure that we will get to 900 and maybe up to 1000

Keep on postin'!

According to Jerry Bails' Who's Who, this cover is probably by Al Hubbard.

Does that seem right? I don't think of him as drawing girlie covers! Nice, simple gag cover, whoever it is.

beautiful books there Monty, thanks for sharing them.

 

I just got another shipment in from the high grade source. I had gotten a bunch about 5 months ago and those were among the first I posted. I will likely not get to processing those until late in the year. In the meantime here is antoher installment.

next installment.

 

Since I have all of the great supplies from Comic Supply available I am able to finish rebagging the books to get them all in some level of mylar. once that is done I can get another couple of boxes ready for scanning. even crappy books look much better in mylar

I picked up a couple of random ones last week too. First 2 early-ish cowboys and then an Uncle Wiggily because Jack always seem to be fond of that series. It sure seems like those animals can throw a party in the page I scanned -

Here are a couple I have scanned, just tried them on ebay, no interest in either. The No Time For Sergeants is out of a lot of VERY pretty FC's I picked up last spring.

Thanks! Nice, bright cover art.

(Just what I need. Attracting Scrooge's attention to FC issues that I don't have!)

 

I do like Uncle Wiggily comics, including the great Kelly issues, notably the cover of FC 179.

(Odd that he's not listed on the feature at Jerry B's Who's Who.)

 

I like all the action on that scanned page. The chickens look like Warner Bros and the fawn looks like Disney! Who's Who suggests Lynn Karp, Bill Weaver or Bill Wright artwork. I have a gut feeling that Karp might be right, based on some help with previously attempted IDs at GCD.

 

Sort of macabre, the chickens happily boiling and coloring their eggs. Sorta like steers having a burger barbecue.

Very nice -- is your ebay ID the same as your ID here? I don't browse for Four Colors very often, but I'm looking for a bunch.Paratrooper might be interested in No Time For Sergeants if he doesn't have it already (parachute cover).Jack
