Comics-n-ERB Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Wow, David, cool stuff! What are the contents of the Superman HC? Is it a novel with pictures? The Tarzan book and the letter are amazing. Congrats on a great find! Hey Todd, thought you might like the Superman book It was published in 1942 by Random House. Written by George Lowther. It has illustrations and painted page spreads in it by Joe Shuster. It was published with a Dust Jacket which I don't have. Really neat item. I've not read it yet but plan to.

Comics-n-ERB Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Here is a really neat item. It's a Dime Action Book. I've never seen the Capt. Marvel one before so I grabbed it up. That is cool! Never seen it before. What year is it? Hey Mark! I had never seen one either! It was published in 1941 and is like a big little book in that it has illustrations on the right and text on the left.

Senormac Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) Just because also perfect "press out that spine roll" candidate (thumbs u I wonder I think its a printing misalignment ( maybe the same thing ? ) The cover is smooth to the very edge of the spine. Isn't spine roll because of multiple readings w/ cover fold back usually being the culpret ? If the book was "rolled" back to the edge of the staples and pressed .... the right edge of the book would pull back also and expose a good bit of the first page. At least thats what I'm thinkin. Its cut perfectly straight on the right edge...not staggered Edited July 27, 2011 by Senormac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Had a great time visiting with my buddy David (comics-n-erb) who happened to be in town on business. We did some comic horse trading and I was able to pick up some nice low grade comic goodness Bill, thats a photo cover.....isn't it ? It looks like art and photo mixed I think it is mixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Ahhh, the infamous The Conqueror. Isn't that considered the worst film the Duke made (not counting some of his early oaters)? Edit - Well, it has a fantastic 3.1 ratings on IMDB ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senormac Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Since we're showing old Four Colors, this one in yesterday. I love how these old fc's start right at the front and end in the last panel of the back cover. Not one single ad in the entire book.

Weird Paper Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Ahhh, the infamous The Conqueror. Isn't that considered the worst film the Duke made (not counting some of his early oaters)? Edit - Well, it has a fantastic 3.1 ratings on IMDB ... It was filmed too close to some nuclear testing facilities -- a disproportionate number of the cast and crew ended up dying of cancer, including Wayne, director Powell, Agnes Morehead, and Susan Hayward. Coincidence? I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coincidence? I dunno. Was it shot there? I seem to recall that that location was a very popular spot for shooting at the time, no? Still, John Wayne as Ghenkis Khan is a stretch anyway you want to look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
