CentaurMan Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Nice!! Those early Peps are tremendous books. I've never seen that one before. Funny, the scans on this page are either too big or too small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shield Posted January 16, 2004 Author Share Posted January 16, 2004 I've owned the CGC VG 4.0 copy of this book for 2 years. If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for this book? It looks slightly better than my copy...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
143ksk Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 Sorry the scan is so small--I'm working on being able to post bigger ones. This book is CGC'd at F+ 6.5. I got it from one of Gerber's big auctions in the mid '80s. I'm pretty sure it was $75. (It was a looong time ago!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PUNYHUMAN Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Here's a classic Schomburg cover. It's one of my ALL time Favorites!!!!! It's only graded a VG+ I bought off of Harley Yee, but I love it anyway!!!! I figured I'd end the night with a BANG! So without further adu ...

ghoulaid Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Terrific books Punyhuman! Maybe it's just me but I think it would be helpful for people on dial-up connections if you could try reducing the size of your images. At about 3 MB each, they still haven't loaded after 15 minutes. On the previous page I reduced your Black Terror #8 and posted it for you (maybe you didn't see that). I'd like to see more of what you have but giant scans tend to kill threads (for me anyway). I don't know what kind of software you are using to scan and save but maybe try scanning at 150 dpi and save it at 50% or something. Just play around with it to find different results. Thanks!

Bonds25 Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Nice books! (anyway of making the scans smaller? they're HUGE now!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
143ksk Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 Great Pep 24. I've always liked that cover! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henson-migration Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 It was a different time back then... Some of the coolest covers, but the inside story and art never lived up to the covers... Let's Give! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
143ksk Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 I think in the case of some publishers (Nedor springs to mind) the covers were by far the best part. But many companies had some excellent interior work as well. I really like a lot of the work done in MLJ titles such as Pep and Hangman. There's some fabulous art by Bob Fuje and Harry Lucey (and others). If you haven't visited Shield's MLJ website, you should--lots of excellent stuff to download/peruse. And the early Archie stories behind those WWII Pep covers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
