ciorac Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 (edited) Maybe the A-Man is an unidentified Ped? That would be cool but there is no way to tell at this point. It has no identifying markings (or smell) that relate to any known pedigrees. It is just really pretty and solid. And the cover is awfully cool too! Both books are awesome Richard, but that Amazing Man is simply, well....AMAZING! Edited December 29, 2008 by ciorac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciorac Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 WOW, those are amazing:) Here are a few more from my *other* friend named Richard...thank you, to Richard! What a score!

BB-Gun Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I was so very excited for this comic, I love it so much! I like the early Top Notch issues. They seem a little classier than the later MLJ which became almost slap stick. Or at least they were imitating Simon and Kirby's Capt. America. And The Wizard has a nifty car. bb Above is Streak Chandler from Top Notch 6 and below is the Wizard splash from Top Notch 1. Edd Ashe's art reminds me of Guardineer.

BB-Gun Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 This Bob Phantom splash reminds me of Matt Baker. Art by Bernard Klein according to the GCD And Montana did terrific work on the St. Louis Kid. Mistakenly assigned to Streeter in the GCD. Both splashes are scans from Top Notch 21 provided by GA.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both splashes are scans from Top Notch 21 provided by GA.uk PLEASE report errors like this to GCD with the "If you believe any of this data to be incorrect, please let us know." link at the bottom of each page. The form is easy to use. I fixed this one. Thanks, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omigosh. Golden Age writers really liked radium, but they just made up stuff about it! Those are some bizarre properties! Thanks for the scan. Jack (The Palace of the Gas Men.

It has no identifying markings (or smell) that relate to any known pedigrees. It is just really pretty and solid. And the cover is awfully cool too! Richard brought the book to show-n-tell at RHGs and it is really, really pretty but not of any identifiable pedigree. The only disappointing aspect is that it wasn't mine.

Here is the first page I forgot about that incredible splash. Wonderful work in there and definitely an upside to owning a coverless book. No reason to ever slab it.
