Now I envy you. Nice looking book. Badger, Larryw7 and comicjack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Larryw7 Posted December 5, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2017 I got this on the boards. I've been looking for a decent, affordable copy since the late eighties, when I foolishly sold a high grade copy.

Give me yours please. Until then, I'll have to console myself with the first Australian edition.

I've been looking for a decent, affordable copy since the late eighties, when I foolishly sold a high grade copy. I liked all of the early four color stories and have found an early run of WDCS with stories by Barks. I read the Mummy's Ring as a reprint back in the sixties and was thrilled by the art and the story. All of these were difficult to get in medium grades so I have to be happy with my low grades.

Unfortunately my brother wanted to kill me for cutting up his comic. Sorry Jimmy, this was done Photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, I've never seen a copy of one of these Dell books where kids were supposed to animate the cover where the cover was actually cut up. But I suppose doing so increased the chances that the book would be thrown away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What appears to be a stain in the upper left corner probably brought down what would otherwise have been a much higher grade. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
