It reprints Weird Horrors 1, Strange Terrors 1, & Authentic Police Cases 8. Indicia states, "St. John Publishing". That is a great book!

Likely return copies that St John reused similar to those Giant Comics Editions. I'm sure you're correct, and my error in referring to them as reprints. They are likely "remaindered" returns, stripped of their partial covers, and the interiors used in the giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PVILLE23 Posted January 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2023 As promised from my post back on Nov 24th 2022 with my Superman #2 3.5 that I told you all to stay tuned. Well it has finally been payed off and I now have it in hand so after a few months I give you…… Superman #3 5.0🔥🇺🇸 Came out Winter of 1939/1940 Written by Jerry Siegel Cover & Art by Dennis Neville, Joe Shuster and Paul Cassidy Beyond excited to add #3 to go along with #2. It may not be a #1 but it is pretty damn close and I’m ok with that. Appreciate the look 😉 Yorick, Frisco Larson, Point Five and 19 others 19 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post adamwfish Posted February 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) BOY'S RANCH #1-6 1950/1951 There isn't much not to love about this title-- personally, it's my favorite Simon + Kirby work-- though it was short-lived at 6 issues, it makes you double down your appreciation for the wacky adventures of the Kid Cowboys-- scooped the entire run from an original owner collection!

GREAT set of books right here!!!! As far as the "personal collection" label, is that a little Godzilla holding that label?

Popular Post Robot Man Posted February 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2023 Way back when I was very actively seeking out GA giants and annuals, I saw this one. Over the years, it kept eluding me. Finally landed one. Interesting contents. Remaindered St John books. In addition to Audrey, there are 2 Kubert adventure stories, Three Stooger (possibly #1), and a bunch of Mopsy which I always look for anyway. The fact that a coupon is missing from an ad/text page only, made this very affordable. This is one thick fattie!

Popular Post Hap Hazard Posted February 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2023 A Fox Annual thats been on my Want List, Found one that was graded poor for missing the first page, I was pretty sure this was not the case as a Fox books often had page one printed on the inside of the cover. So sure enough every remaindered ( covers removed) in the annual started with page two. Included in this Annual: Hoot Gibson 3 with a nice Wood story Crimes Inc. 12 (1) Pedro 18 (1) Early Wood Art Famous Crimes 17 Larryw7, comicjack, adamwfish and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I hope he did. He is still reeling over his cool new TOT Annual #1. He had to part with a lot of cool books to get it. I know because I saw them on the dealer’s wall that bought them. But as cool as they were, he made a wise choice. As he said, this was his opportunity. Might be his only chance.
