This book finally arrived yesterday after a couple weeks of Homeland Security red tape. Now that I have it in hand here is a scan with no filter that represents the actual colors better than the previous one I posted.

Not in hand yet but in route.  Glad to have one of the three mini-puzzles off the list.  I don't know if the puzzles are complete or not but for the price, I couldn't go wrong.

Wow, very cool. Kind of gets a little lost on the same page as one of the coolest comics ever published. These multi puzzles are so tough to find. Hope it turns out complete for you. I wouldn't care either. Just landing one at all is an achievement. A while back, I saw a boxed 6 puzzle example. Only one I've ever seen. 

When it comes, build them and post the results...

Definitely. I figure I couldn’t lose since it cost $15 including shipping   :whatthe:

This is indeed interesting...how the heck did they tack that sign onto a brick wall?  :|

not a recent purchase but one I have been searching many of my boxes for, since I had already scanned the cover :) Reprints Little Eva #4, Fightin Texan #17 and Wartime Romances #10.

Excellent.  As you probably know, some copies have Baker reprints and some don't.  You got one of the good ones.

Baker!

The funny thing is that I don't usually like photo covers, but this one is a classic and the girl is gorgeous. Plus who can refuse a pretty girl who gives boys the green light?

Such a great cover, by the great Bob Powell. Oddly he doesn’t seem to have received the high praise and adulation that many of his artist peers have. Maybe because he was never associated with one particular title or superhero?

  He is one of the greats, and not just for clever cover images but for the general clarity and fluidity of his story telling.  He also fairly early in his career hired assistants, obscuring what was really his and, in many cases, diluting the impact of his art.

If you found the pieces elsewhere would they be considered "married"?
