Not sure this belongs here, not being in the 1-10 or #50 range, but I figure it will just about pass muster. szav, Cliff R., BriD. and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked a couple of other Australian collectors and they've never seen it. Until I scanned this it wasn't in the GCD or Ausreprints. So I don't think they're plentiful!

It’s my favorite cover and the last book I’d ever sell is my Archie 50. ThothAmon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been hilarious if it was a Reggie comic with Reggie in the Photo (now that we know the Aussies edited the artwork for some of the covers) Edited May 25, 2018 by gadzukes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BriD. Posted May 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2018 Hi! I stumbled upon this group yesterday and thought i would join the party. My first purchase here on the boards was this Archie 50 . The hunt for it is what actually brought me here. I picked up the #8 a couple months ago raw. archiecomicscollector, pmpknface, Badger and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJD Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I thought I'd ask here, while Australian Archies were almost still topical. I picked this up on the weekend, completely because of the excellent GGA cover. I can't find a corresponding American edition with this cover, and I looked at Archie, Pep and Reggie on the GCD. Anyone able to place it? Ricksneatstuff, Sqeggs, Badger and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gadzukes Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) I love finding this kind of thing..... Here is a closeup of Archie 47 cover, and then a closeup of Wilbur 35 cover. Anything look familiar. Edited June 1, 2018 by gadzukes Badger, Point Five and Junkdrawer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that there's no US equivalent of that Reggie cover although a similar picture frame joke was used on the cover of Laugh #60 but not in a beach scene. The artwork isn't usually consistent with the Archie house style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post archiecomicscollector Posted June 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2018 I'm relatively new to CGC (and first time posting!), but I'm a HUGE Archie fan! I started collecting Archie comics 20 years ago, when I was just 10 years old. I have nearly 2000 comics (including digests) and over 100 associated toys (i.e. dolls, lunch boxes, puzzles) in my collection. A glimpse of my collection can be found on Instagram under @archiecomicscollector. Badger, Cliff R., AJD and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
