Later, I'll post the Jungle, Jumbo, Ka'a'nga and Sheena books. Like I mentioned before, I still have another 20 Jungle/Jumbo books coming back from PGX. I'll post those when they arrive in a week or two.

I can hardly wait. Seeing the artist roster on some of those early Fiction House: Celardo, Lubbers, Renee, Anderson, Whitman, Evans, Baker makes not only my head spin but also makes my want lists grow longer. This is the best new thread over the last few months. Thank you.

Thanks Scrooge, but I should be the one thanking all of you guys for opening my eyes to these great GA comics. Three years ago, I had no idea there was anything beyond the D.C. and Timely books......boy, was I wrong!! The Golden Age forum has always been my favorite due to the extremely knowledgeable and polite posters on here.

Amazing that you've been able to put this collection together in just a few years! Very impressive work indeed. So far, that Wings #90 you recently posted is my favorite "new discovery." Killer, killer stuff!

Unfortunately, I have overpaid for a good number of these comics. If I sold these books tomorrow (which I won't) I'd definitely lose at least 20% of what I put into them. However, I figured that since I'd hopefully be keeping this collection for a long time, I could overpay slightly now and not worry about flipping them the next day.

 

It's just really frustrating to look for a book for a long time, and when a decent copy shows up, it's way overpriced. I have become a little more budget conscience these days and will probably take a break for a few months. There are only 2 more books that I consider must haves, and those are Phantom Lady #17 and Junior #14. Others on the back of my mind are Seven Seas #4 and 5, Phantom Lady #23, Planet Comics #30, Wings Comics #86 and #89, and a few others that I can't remember. Some of the horror and Timely titles have some great female covers, but I don't want to open up a whole new can of worms now.

O.K., here are some Sheena covers. Numbers 7, 8, 9 and 11 are temporarily on top of census:

The O.S. guide says Whitman.

 

I was a little inrigued with this cover as well since it looks it's been drawn in the 90's or something.

Here are some Jumbo Comics:

Whitman, or Whitney? I never heard of Whitman, but I know next to nothing about this genre. But looking at so many at one time, I definitely see the appeal. Its interesting to see how many ways they could stick a pinup posed babe in scifi, jungle, spy etc situations!!

Here are some Jungle Comics:

Plenty more Jumbo/Jungle Comics coming in a week or two, as I mentioned before.

 

Well, I'm dwindling down to the last 20 or 25 miscellaneous titles. Some of these books may not be classified as good girl art, but if it was created in the 40's and 50's, there's a "girl" on the cover, and she looks "good", then I'm posting it.

You should post just 2 or 3 a day so we can keep the thread going for a few more weeks. Awesome collection!

Darn twig. This is one for the taillight thread we never started. Oh and my favorite Planet you showed was # 56. Classic Sci-Fi image.
