cheetah Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 What surprised me more is that there are 3 9.6 Sig Series from 1940 - 1949 (and 1 9.4) I picked up one of those from a boardie. Awesome copy but its a shame that someone decided to have this signed. Yeah, it is certainly a point of contention for some folks. I think I would be turned off if it was a Stan Lee signature but the Gene Colon sig in gold pen and the yellow label really accentuate the book so I decided I was okay with it. I don't think I could have done it if I owned the book raw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I think the 9.4 is a Frazetta Famous Funnies. I think there are two of those but not sure of the grades on both. No idea on the others. Paratrooper had a couple of Wings or Fights that were SS but there are midgrade. The 9.4 FF should be post-1949 (they are: 1953) so they wouldn't be any of these Now I am curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! :thumbsup: Should have remembered this one. Know what the other two are? I think the 9.4 is a Frazetta Famous Funnies. I think there are two of those but not sure of the grades on both.

There's a 9.6 Church Frazetta sig series for Tally Ho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 1st thing i do , when i get to the shop! Ah yes,one of the benefits of your workplace/library. Here's another of my favorites.Check out Baron Gestapo! ` I really like those Montana covers. Did he continue do draw superheroes after he started working on Archie (and went off to WWII).

Electron Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I agree. I love the early Zip covers starting at around #8. Nice #13 Russ. Thanks Peter. I concur and think that # 8 is where the title really takes off as well,however issue 3 is the one earlier cover that is an exception for me.Just love it! Really wish someone would sell me one. Not Mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
