adamstrange Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 My curiosity about the scarcity of certain issues of Amazing Mystery Funnies was piqued after reading recent comments about the title. I was surprised to discover how few have been submitted to CGC for grading Here are the total numbers for each issue as listed in the census. I thought some of you might find the low numbers interesting. ISSUE - CENSUS COUNT #1 - (3) #2 - (1) #3 - (1) #4 - (0) v2#1 (1) v2#2 (0) v2#3 (2) v2#4 (0) v2#5 (3) v2#6 (1) v2#7 (11) v2#8 (1) v2#9 (5) v3#1 (2) #18 (1) #19 (2) #20 (4) #21 (1) #22 (1) #23 (0) #24 (2) The series has long been one of my favorites. Centaurman has posted his "Windex" ranking of scarcity and there are some tough issues in the series, except for 2/7 which seems to be common as dirt. Or at least as common as Centaurs get.

I noticed that Bedrock's Church copy (CGC 9.4) of Vol.2 No.10 is missing from this list. Maybe CGC hasn't updated it recently!!!! Anyway a lot of Centaur titles could be added to this list also as none graded!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flee-Marquette Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I had a few more scans available that I made earlier and I hoped someone could help me fix one of them. Lulu almost always wore a red dress but don't you think that she could have switched to green for this Christmas cover. Can someone fix that (Flee?) color arangement? Red background and Green dress perhaps?? I found a nice greeting card on the back of Bugs Bunny Christmas Parade 3. And a neat interior scan (usually requested by Jack). Merry Christmas again. Bruce Just now noticed this. Happy Holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 2/4 blew my mind!! (I'm sure Blind Owl wouldn't object... were you around for the first posting?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Flee, Thanks for working on the Lulu cover. It looks great. I had a few other left over Chrismas covers in my golden age box. I don't know if anyone posted the LB Cole Night Before Christmas cover or the first issue of Walt Kelly's Christmas with Mother Goose. But they deserve another look anyway and I hope you all have a Happy New Year. And to get the year started (a little early) with a bang. How about some Capt. Marvel Jr.? Issue 4 had an exciting cover. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
