CAP Freak Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 When I was looking through old pulps for Schomburg illustrations, I stumbled across this ad for Marvel Comics #1. Uncanny Tales (November 1939) very nice Wow! Looks like they re-used the "Marvel" from Timely's Pulp line and the "Comics" from DC's books at the time.

BangZoom Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 This is an unusual cover. It pictures prisoners escaping from an internment camp in the U.S during WWII. The story identifies the camp as being near El Paso, Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 BZ, I enjoyed this WDCS story when I was a kid too. I bought it again 20 years ago. I don't have my original copy but I do have my brothers Uncle Scrooge collection. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deucedriver Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 This is an unusual cover. It pictures prisoners escaping from an internment camp in the U.S during WWII. The story identifies the camp as being near El Paso, Texas. Great cover. That's one that slipped my attention over the years. So what kind of politically incorrect story is it? How things have changed. I'll have to keep an eye out for that issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
