Finally got around to snapping some interior shots of the Smash I picked up a couple weeks ago.

 

Really fun stuff inside :)

 

A title I've always wanted to collect, but never quite gotten around to it.

 

Have a local buddy who is a big fan of those Smashs books - quality indeed!

I've considered it for some time too. Perhaps I'll pick up an issue here and there, or pick a subset to collect. I really enjoyed reading this one

Thanks, guys! I've wanted a Keen Detective Funnies 20 since I saw the cover in a book called The Golden Age of Comic Books by Richard O'Brien when I was a kid. Really glad to have it. :luhv:

It is a great book.

I need to get another copy, I misplaced my old one years ago.

Ditto... for a while I was trying to collect covers represented in that book (still have a few left). Just a mind blowing volume for a little kid to get for a Christmas present back in the late 70's!! It warped me for life.

 

Nice KDF 20 Doiby... I approve! (thumbs u

I didn't have one as a kid but I took it off the shelf earlier this week and am in the middle or re-reading it. Given that O'Brien didn't have the Gerber Guide he sure picked an excellent set of issues to picture in his book!

I learned so much from that book. I only knew DC and Marvel. It was the first I ever heard of Comic House/Lev Gleason, Centaur(:cloud9:) and many other lesser known publishers.
