selegue Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Wasn't this one of the contenders for top Golden Age cover a few years ago? It wasn't on the ballot list, i.e., no one nominated it even though quite a few Fairy Tale Parade issues made the cut. The highest placed one was Fairy Tale Parade # 7 at # 28 after the final tally, which you voted second place in your ballot, right behind your top vote for Four Color # 69 which itself ended ranked # 65 ... if any one cares to know. Strictly from memory, right? Yeah, I remember having trouble deciding which covers to nominate because I didn't want to dilute the Kelly votes too much. FC 50 may have been the last one I knocked off my nominations list -- just about as good as the other two. I have to admit that at the time I had no idea that I would own FC 50 and 69 a few years later. Not a single Fairy Tale Parade though.

skypinkblu Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 A new arrival to my slowly growing Black Cat run Great book, Bill...and if you had TOLD me, you might have gotten it for less, ..I think I was the under bidder. I'm glad you won it, I'll take your lower grade left overs, please;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerKid Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 My other "big" recent purchase, this one from CLink. I'm not a fan of this cover, but I am thrilled with this copy. The major flaws are around the edges and make the book affordable, but the cover has bright colors and great gloss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerKid Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 This thrill bid book is cool, but I'll probably be unloading it pretty quick (no playing cards. I need to keep repeating to myself "Stop buying books not in your niche".) Cheap Mile Highs are fun though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Cap's cherub-like face was part of it - in addition to the Biro-esque balloon filled cover (except I usually like Biro covers). Golden Girl is welcome on a cover any time.
