Thanks Russell Sometimes we get lucky & finding something this cool 5 miles away from my house was an unexpected treat (not as big a treat as thumbing up that FRISCO, but a treat nonetheless) Maybe he'll turn up some MORE good gold He certainly likes cash-paying customers .....

Frisco Larson Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Can I post this in here? I don't know where the platinum thread went. Got this out of Heritage a few weeks back. When my new supplies come in, this is coming out to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 From the last Heritage auction. I just thought it was pretty... ...pretty cheap. Great book! Strange what's happened to S&K. When I first started collecting in the 1960s, like a lot of people, I worked backward from Kirby's FF and Thor books to his Marvel/Atlas fantasy and then back to 1950s and 1940s S&K books. They were by far the most collectible GA artists. It would be hard to think of who would be in second place. For instance, I don't have a clear recollection of people making much distinction between the Timely covers Schomburg drew and those drawn by Shores or other artists. Perhaps others have different recollections. Nowadays, S&K books seem among the few GA books selling below guide. I've picked up some of their Harvey books very cheap lately. For the most part, the stories and art still appeal to me. Be interesting to see if at some point the wheel spins again and their number comes back up.

The cover colors on this are amazing! Everyone who's seen it (about a half dozen people) have thought it looks way better than a g/vg.
