Popular Post JoeRock Posted October 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2020 Saw this awhile back in a blog about Mary Marvel, so when it was listed on the bay, I instantly recognized what it was. I’m a sucker for promo items. 1942 newsstand promotional display for Mary. Very happy to have this Marty Mann, Scrooge, sagii and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Was looking for my copy of The Maltese Falcon comic book to share interiors with Robot Man and instead found my copy of this book. It was in a box labeled Misc. Juvenile Comics. I need to get better organized. Still, happy to have this one. Seems like it went up in price recently. Back cover looks better than the front cover. - adamstrange, Randall Dowling, PopKulture and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back cover looks better than the front cover. - A book that cool I don't think I would mis-file, but it is tough organizing golden age. For silver, that's easy: it goes by company, then alphabetically, until I have enough to break out into a title's own box like ASM or Superman. For GA, it's by genre with some exceptions, such as I like to have all my Fiction House books together. The genres get a bit blurry sometimes: there are westerns, there are romance books - so does that mean I have to keep western-romance books between the two genres??

I have my books by major publishers and genres. Some times I end up putting a book like Mr District Attorney by DC in my crime boxes though. I often have to look in two boxes. I also have one box of pedigrees. I often forget I have a ped of a book and forget it. So, three boxes... Marty Mann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, my first instinct was to look in my "literary adaptations that are not Classics Illustrated" box ... but it wasn't there. So, I went to look at the box that might have my Smash, Crack, and Hit books. In there, instead of finding any Smash or Crack, I only found some Hits and this Marvel Family So, now not only can't I find the Maltese Falcon (ironically) but I wonder where my Smash are ... I do keep all my Atlas and all my Fiction House together and I won't admit to how many Dell boxes I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many possibilities and crossovers. Must be nice to be one of those people who just collects one title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of Hillman books reside together, too. It sounds like a lot of publishers broken out, but not when you consider the number of publishers in the 50's especially. And as far as the Dell boxes go, I have plenty of those as well. For one, they're so affordable, and a box with say Bugs or Donald in it is bound to have a dozen or more Dell Giants and those things take up a LOT of room in the boxes. So worth it, though, as great examples of Americana!! (Oh, and then there is that nasty complication of some books being in mylar and residing in magazine boxes while the poly-bagged (egads, I know!) books can still fit in a massaged short box.)

Robot Man Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I never thought of putting all my Atlas books all together. That would be quite the task. There are SO many genres. I file them by genre. I like seeing them with their counterparts. And then, there is breaking up titles like Submariner and Human Torch. They stay in my Timely boxes. SA is easy. There is Marvel, DC and the rest. I do have my “key” Marvel and DCs in separate boxes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
