Never seen that cover before, and it is AWESOME.

My plan is working!  Soon everyone will want Little Dot 119!  Bwahahahahahahahahaha.

People already do. Ebayer, Blissard has been auctioning file copies of these and they always sell for stronger prices than surrounding Little Dot comics.

It’s not just a cover, it’s a great story!

In it, we encounter a much grimmer Dot, on a manhunt thru Bonnie Dell. See, if  you don’t love dots, then you’re L-7, Daddio!

Dot has come to hunt squares and chew bubble gum, and she’s all outta bubble gum!

I'm going to take a modicum of credit for this cover being a break-out. Many years ago, I had this one featured on flickr and it was one of a few postings that had the most views by far. That was back when flickr was relevant and a post of anything from a certain mid-century magazine or an old postcard would drive people over to the Bay, much like the Boards do now for certain genres. Dumb things is, I didn't bother to buy a minty copy first. I guess I'm no Hunt brother...  (shrug)

Since threads dealing with "classic covers" invariably veer off into people's favored covers, I'm offering up these examples with a grain of salt:

Can't leave out that bastion of good taste, Charlton:

Romita goodness with a non-superhero bent:

Heath magic:

Gotta have some love for the cartoons of the 60's (even if you call this 15c bronze):

This Cardy Aquaman cover deserves an honorable mention for a great layout:

And one of my all-time favorite silver age covers:

eBay guy refunded me!

Someone must have offered him more after I hit his BIN. He says he damaged it. Rassafrassin’ sidewinder!

Man I just can't get enough of those DC grey-tone covers! Any one of them is an instant classic cover.
