LucyBop Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Of Course, Monster movies were also the rage in the 50s and 60s, Archie comics followed suit.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyBop Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Another one I was looking for CGC to give me a nine on... oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyBop Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 I also do Suzie....This Stunner is so close to mint.... I was concerned about the upper left top corner, you can see a big defect that really killed the grade on this one, but considering its age (1950)and that it was a bokk I owned for over twenty years, I was happy.

RedRaven Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 I LOVE this thread! Never been a big fan o' Archies but the period covers are awesome! Might have to look into picking up a few of the Monster theme covers! Lucy, got any Dracula/wolfman covers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

143ksk Posted January 20, 2004 Author Share Posted January 20, 2004 (edited) Don't have a scan of one, but I've always considered Archie's Pals 'n Gals #1 to be one of the classic Archie covers of all time. Beautiful cover showing the love triangle between Archie, Veronica, and Betty in solid bold red and blue colours. Also consider this to be one of the more undervalued Archies since it is an #1 issue from the early 50's which is extremely tough to find in grade. Squarebound 120 page book which is still valued at only $850 in the OS guide. Anybody have a copy which they can scan in for me.

143ksk Posted January 20, 2004 Author Share Posted January 20, 2004 (edited) Here's another of my favorite covers: I'm thinking Betty and Veronica are probably the best choices, but then again, I'm not an alien!
