The funny thing is that I don't usually like photo covers, but this one is a classic and the girl is gorgeous. Plus who can refuse a pretty girl who gives boys the green light? Um, actually, apparently Baker could! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Xeno1997 Posted November 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2018 This is my first post on the golden age threads! I absolutely love golden age Timleys! Here is a extremely tough Timely that never comes up, Stan Lees first super hero! The mighty Destroyer in Mystic comics 10, the last issue with a extremely low print run!! Anything with Destroyer i immediately fall in love with! He's such an awesome golden age character! My favorite Timely super hero by far, and also like i earlier mentioned, Stan Lees first superhero creation along side with Jack binder! which most people don't even know about. I had to have CGC change the label on my mystic comics 6 which is destroyers first appearance! comicnoir, Ltpink2002, Sqeggs and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Just bought the cover to marry with a coverless I already had. That usually gives me more satisfaction than buying a higher grade one. I always lived the yellowsonthe cover. I think having them in the title too really makes it pop. Larryw7, Spyder! and Knightsofold 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted November 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) So I was surprised this morning to see this post come through on a Facebook group. A long time collector had some extra time and decided to sort his books on his kitchen table this weekend. That's some sorting! It just goes to show that there are still plenty of raw gems out there destined to come for sale someday!!

I was a LOT younger than he was. Through a couple of much older friends, I did get to go over to his house once. The books on the bed that the cat was walking on were his "under copies". He had quite the collection. He was one of the first deep pocket collectors. I think Yellow Kid knew him pretty well.
