I think he only did one of each cover. 

I just looked up the original ad by Overstreet and Bruce Hamilton in Overstreet 11 and it didn't mention anything specific about whether there would only be one re-creation of each cover, so perhaps someone else knows one way or another. 

I do think it's notable, since I couldn't help but steal a glance, that the Top 50 Books included (in the top 10 no less!) Motion Picture Funnies Weekly, Captain Marvel Adventures 1, Wow Comics 1 and Double Action Comics 1. Pretty amazing when you consider in tandem the Duck books from a few years before that. The hierarchy has definitely changed since then to include numerous classic covers and the like!! (Marvel 1 was first, btw).

That was very cool...thanks for sharing!

Since he's a self-described completist, I wonder what runs of books he has to go along with those two mega-keys?

A run of grails only?

When you're star with AC#1 AND DC #1, I guess the sky is the limit 🤯

Guy seems pretty chill.  I bet you Rueben Blades would have never started a "Wheels are in Motion" thread if he couldn't get the last book he needed.

@greggy would have never started such a thread either.

That clip was really cool to see. I'm ashamed to admit my initial response at those purple labels was "awwww that too bad" then I came back to reality and remembered what the issues were. Unbelievable stuff.
