Very cool.  Any idea what year it's from?

1940

 

Wow. I'm actually surprised it was produced that relatively soon after publication of Action 1.  I would have guessed it was made in 1950 or later.  Interesting! Thanks.

Is it ok to sell something like this in the Sales Thread or is this a no no?

[Robot Man]

Probably not, but I love looking at it anyway.

Thanks Robot Man.  How many of these puzzles do you have in your "junk" collection?

[Robot Man]

I have the one you have with a couple of "improvements" and about 5 or 6 others. They come in 300 piece and 500 piece versions plus one I don't have with 3 in one box. All are based on early Action covers. Real popular with Superman collectors.

Here's a recent pick up. The only other one I have a photo of.

Is that a legit Siegel and Shuster sig?

I used to have this puzzle as a kid, but it was mounted on wood and used as a play mat.

Really? Do you think I would post it if it wern't?

Yes, both were obtained by myself at the San Diego Con many years ago. (two different years)

Those sigs are sweet.

I was able to sell my puzzle for $650 on the Bay which shows these puzzles have some nice value.  I'm sure your signed puzzle would value well above $1000.

I can't imagine there would be a problem.  I think I've seen people sell them here before.

I sold it on the Bay.  These are cool puzzles, I might start keeping my eye out for them.

One more off the want list. 9 to go!

Great book! And dare I say, looks "improvable"
