Blind Owl Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I don't think I've posted a Guardineer story in a few days. For those of you in withdrawal, here's an interesting one. You'll remember it's basically the same plot as a previous one and it's not much of one at that. Me ... I don't care since it gives us the chance to see Guardineer's vision of Borneo, same as the previous one gave us the chance to see Guardineer's vision of Russia - Some incredible scans being posted here in the last few days!!! Thanks to all for posting these for all of us to see. Scrooge I especially enjoyed the Boomerang story as I've never seen it before! GREAT STUFF!!!

selegue Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I love paging through Golden Age comics. There's always good odds of stumbling across unusual stories. Sweet Lucy!! "...weird creatures moving on giant suction-cupped wheels.." Yes, I think the odds are good. Thanks for the pages. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Here's the rest of the story. Wow! That was one weeeeiiiiird Dr. Fung story. Thank you for posting that one. I will say that the 2 posters you showed are quite unusual. Is there any special interest / feature to the film they portray or are they desirable simply for their rarity?

adamstrange Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Here are two rare Martin Johnson movie posters from 1918. Incredible! From IMDB: Documentary of an expedition by Martin E. Johnson and his wife into the native habitats of the Solomon and New Hebrides Islands in the South Pacific. The Johnsons travelled 18,000 miles by schooner, whaleboat, and native canoe to shoot footage of tribes previously unseen outside their native lands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(thumbs u I remembered that Wolverton's Rockman and Jack Frost were in issue 1,and thought(incorrectly)that Wolverton did the art on the 1st issue only.I have never owned a USA 1 or 2,but I do have a small batch that starts at 6.
