Picked this up in a trade at the monthly Philly show this weekend

(worship) One of my all time favorite funny books, Pons. Jack Cole cover and four stories (over half the book is drawn by Cole). Magnificent! :cloud9:

 

I'm glad you were able to pick up a nice copy. :applause:

They probably haven't taken Down yet (shrug)

 

The main reason I asked is because the book was newly listed on ebay. Just curious.

While I didn't make it to SDCC this year, I did manage to win a long-time grail book last week... TARGET COMICS #8 (D I C K Winters copy, Sparkle City auction). This book is super-elusive, no doubt due in part to its cool grey-tone cover and candy like colors.

The book is also loaded with a great Funnies Inc. -type line up:

 

Burgos (White Streak):

Feels good to get this one in the collection... Been looking for this book for a LONG time now... ever since the Gerber guide came out.

 

Looks good next to my TARGET 7 Larson...

John, the ebay seller in the link, and I co-own a bunch of books we located in a collection a few months back. So, at the show a collector with the SS 7 approached John about trading for one of the books he and I co-own. Since I was at the show, we were able to make the trade for the SS 7. I've contemplated buying John out of his share of the book and keeping it, but he wanted to test the waters with it first. So, there you have it.
