I haven't been pursuing Four Color Series I, but when I saw this issue pop up on ebay at a reasonable price, I decided to pick it up.

While I have almost half of the First Series, that is one that I have not filled in yet.  nice to see it

 

As I am going through my collection for the umpteenth time I noticed the Jacky's Diary and was thinking that I had not seen a followup.  Since this was usually a tryout series I was wondering what other attempts never got a second shot prior to the series demise? 

So we have the movie issues  as well as some of the later issues like the other two below.  Any other come to mind?

Johnny Jason did get a second issue, though not as a Four Color.

One that came immediately to mind is Four Color #309 with Betty Betz' Dollface and Her Gang.

Another is Four Color #518 with Rivets, though the character did get three issues from another publisher.

Another of the earliest one shots was I Met a Handsome Cowboy, but I dont have a scan handy

 

Here is the last slab from the recent transaction with MCS.  Guess the cost of working with them just went up as I saw they not charge Sales Tax for most of the country

What ever happened to Sqegg? He was quite active for awhile and then seemed to vanish.

No idea.  They haven't been active since September.

This was the version I developed a few years ago when the HAVE list exceeded 1100  and the wants dropped into the hundreds

 

I added the upgrade section later

Don't collect Dell but I picked up a collection with these #s. 907, 917, 934, 960, 986, 991, 992, 999, 1003, 1027, 1045, 1059, 1076, 1078, 1089, 1096, 1103, 1111, 1123, 1126, 1138, 1146, 1147, 1159, 1167, 1187, 1200, 1211, 1252, 1254, 1280, 1287, 1291, 1341.

Looks like the only one you need is 917. It's got a bit of curve, detached top staple at cf, some rust on staples but if you want it you can have it. PM me if you do.
