samfromcalifornia Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 In the early 70's I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area and I remember buying reprints of early Spirit Sections. I'm not sure if they reprinted the whole section or just the Spirit story. They were black and white on a stiff grade of paper, each section printed separately, having(I believe) 10 consecutive sections in a plastic bag. I'm not sure if they were offered locally or nationally. I don't remember if they had an insert like yours, but it's certainly possible they did.

N e r V Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 No logic in picking up 3 of these now over the past 3 months other than I really dig this LB Cole cover. I have a copy of the Star Publications as well so this qualifies as obsessive behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpepx78 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I know this isn't GA but, I'm hoping one of you guys can help me with this. How was this distributed? Are there others? Was it packaged with something? It's just a single sheet folded in half. The back cover shows a 1973 copyright date. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! Front: Back: I believe samfromcalifornia is correct. What you have is one page from The Spirit black & white reprints that contained 10 stories with comments by Eisner in a plastic bag published in 1973. There were 4 different bags and I think that your page is from bag #4.

I love that cover as well, it just screams 1950s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
