Glad to see this great thread resurrected.  These books have been in high demand over the last few years.  143ksk, what are you collecting these days?

Mostly original art. Still picking away at runs of Tip Top, Sparkler and other titles that contain Ernie Bushmiller work. And, pre-Petrine Russian coinage.

An honorable mention for early Archie appearances should be given to Special Comics #1 which has an ad page for Jackpot #4. This wasn't a typical ad page with just the cover presented with an on sale date. All of the characters are introducing themselves and interacting, and Archie and Jughead are prominently featured.
