We loved to read them but the painted covers were always amazing to see! PopKulture and MrBedrock 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had that book since 1975 (part of 300 comics I bought from someone) and I've never read it...It's in really nice condition though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd highly recommend reading some of these; fun stories, great art and proof that, "Dell Comics are Good Comics!" Tri-Color Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Just found this upstairs in the bookcase with other digests. I forgot I had this. I believe I bought off the stands in the summer of 1973. Great way to get the original Turok stories on the cheap; but bring your reading glasses!!

Cobbledclam Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Going through storage the other day and found my vintage official unofficial all the Dells you need to know about Dells checklist non-4 color plus plus. First page pretty fun. I love old fanzines! It does have all of the four colors as well but I didn't scan them yet. Scrooge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should consider putting a link to this or re-posting in the Dell Four Color thread. I bought a collection of Don and Maggie's Beautiful Balloons mimeo fanzine years ago. They are an interesting study in the early days of comics fandom. Fun to see some of those names on the conributor's list. @Yellow Kid did you see this?

Yellow Kid Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 In the early days of the hobby, information was scarce on numbering and titles. Even the people who didn't like a price guide from Bob Overstreet bought a copy for the information. Just imagine that you collected early Dell Four Color comics and found the same number used more than once for different titles, it was very confusing. But dealers and/or stores starting printing price lists and the information from the various sources was integrated. The early price guides even listed the titles of the Mickey Mouse serials and in which issues of WDCS they appeared. 50YrsCollctngCmcs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
