Theagenes Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Posted this in the pulp thread but I don't think anyone ever visits it anymore. This is the very rare Flash Gordon Strange Adventures Magazine No.1 pulp from 1936. According to some sources it was not licensed by King Features, which probably accounts for its scarceness as well as the fact that the second issue promised in an ad was never published.

I've only ever seen three or four for sale. Heritage sold a restored one a couple of years ago. Steve/Shocase had one for sale a while back. i think I've seen one other one on ebay a couple of years ago. I'll defintely post some interior pics when I get the chance.

Sardo Numspar Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 GA Signature Series - it doesn't get much cooler than that! I agree. Bellman is a cool guy (and Facebook friend ). He lives near me and always goes to the local cons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold it to a fellow in Japan, he sold it on eBay shortly after that. I'd say it's about a Gerber 8 in scarcity (more scarce than rare).
