BangZoom Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 This issue also had a Scrooge story and a Christmas subscription ad on the back. Dell Comics are so wonderful. I'm surprised they aren't collected by tons more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Those jo-joy's have been on my want list for ages. After seeing that back cover, it's time to step it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Dell Comics are so wonderful. I'm surprised they aren't collected by tons more people. The Christmas comics are particularly nice. These are some of my non-Duck favorites. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 This is a 1950 W.T. Grant Christmas giveaway. Jo-Joy was pretty entertaining. WT Grant also produced the Little Fir Tree Story. I also have a McCrory's Toy Story giveaway. I found the Chistmas Tree story at the flea market with a bunch of old children's books. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Every year I promise myself that I will complete my Christmas Parade run but by March I forget. I think I am missing at least a couple. I did get a discount copy of the first issue 10 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) DC made some nice Christmas covers. I like the Comic Cavalcade issues. Unfotunately I don't own any of these five comics and the scans were made by someone else. Edited December 18, 2008 by BB-Gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
