And not to totally kill the value of this Classic Cover book.

 

But I have to wonder just how many kids were honked off when they read the story..only to find out the Red Bee never stabbed the stoopid fish!!

 

He bends over so the big killer fish can cut the ropes around his wrists?

 

And the fish swims away.

 

I want my 10 cents back!!

 

:censored:

 

Does he then sink to the bottom and drown thanks to the massive weights chained to his legs?

Looking at the page Kenny posted it seems the weights were to make the cover image more suspenseful. (:

Since this book obviously was misrepresented. I will keep it for you, and save you future pain and anguish.

 

Nice guy that I am.

Thanks guys, I haven't been able to post much of my recent work lately. But this book was for Haspel, who don't care about sharing "before/afters"

 

Here is the interior for those who have asked.

 

Was not washed, just the outer two wraps leaf casted, and pressed.

Since many have asked offline. Yes, the badly tape damaged paper on the spine was removed, and then I leaf casted in that missing area. This is due to the damaged paper being unstable, even after stain removal...so its better to just get back to stable paper, and leaf cast next to that.

 

If this was a 1 of a kind Historical document, then you never remove anything original before casting. But, this is a comic book..so I have a little wiggle room.

I assume all the cast-away paper is bottled as WonderWorld Comics #6 paper chips. ;)
