Bought this from the for sale forum today. So it won't be here for a while. I'm thrilled to get it though, as I have a very personal connection to this book.

 

Ruben bought it from me years ago. Apparently he had it restored as it was from an original owner collection when I had obtained it.

 

I've been on the lookout over the years for a book from the collection and haven't found a single one until today.

 

I recognized it by the red grease pencil markings. Some of my old geek buddies might recognize it as well

 

:)

Same collection as the Action 1?

:applause: [font:Times New Roman]Nice pick-up, Bill.[/font]

(worship) [font:Times New Roman]Love that awesome Flessel 'Tec. When it arrives you should do a YouTube video cracking it out of prison.

 

Now, turning my attention to cheetah's latest acquisition, ...we need more CATnip![/font]

I stepped a bit outside my usual run of titles but have added this to my micro-sized collection of Denver peds.

sorry you let the hello pal 1 slip by now, aren't you?

 

very nice book, sir.

 

I was holding out for the 50% off sale on the Mile High copy at Metro.

 

No, that wont be until the next century. I love it when Metro offer a $50 discount on a $5000 book. It's such an incentive.

 

[font:Times New Roman]Great book, Jeff. High grade and nice PQ. :applause:

 

Below, my latest addition (alas, not the whole kitten kaboodle):

 

Just in the Cat-house, with many thanks to Vintage Roy & Danielle/Filter Comics...[/font]

^^

 

And in fact, same exact marking as the Action 1. The marking varied a little on some books. It would look like a 12 or a 13 from book to book. The one on the Detective #12 is a dead ringer for the one on the Action 1

:applause: [font:Times New Roman]Those are pretty books, Jeff. :headbang:

 

Here's a raw ungraded copy of Airboy that I've had for a half dozen years and just scanned (it may also be a pedigree). It's the first part of the classic two-part rat story.

 

This copy has a non-color breaking crease (lower right) that might press out. With a little luck it might come back dressed to the 9's by CGC if I ever get around to submitting it...[/font] :wishluck:

Congrats Bill. That's a great Flessel cover. :applause: More Fun collection, right?

Ho-LEE Crunk!

 

I've had plenty of sections over the years but never a TAB. I really REALLY want one now.... What areas were they distributed through, want papers?

 

The only ones I've seen are from the:Philadelphia Bulletin, Philadelphia Record and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Lucky Philly readers back in the day!

Thanks Peter.

 

But not the More Fun Collection. This book was in a collection I bought from an original owner in 1996 that contained a couple of hundred golden age books, included Action 1 - 10.
