Catching up here; finally freed some device storage. The scrawl on the Man #1 is Alan Bellman's sig. I'm not usually an autograph guy but I made an exception for a tough book and a Timely bullpen original.

Love those Looney Tunes. Those early issues just don’t show up that often.

Thank you; they really don't! I traded some original edition, early number classics for them. The dealer/collector I traded with also has an 11 and 15, though the 11 is not quite as nice as the other three, but very close. I will be heading back with more firepower for the others.

These copies have some interesting notation inside from the original owner; I will create a separate thread with the insides to see whether anyone else has books from this person. My photos may not do them justice; they are remarkably well-preserved for a little girl's books from 1942.

Definitely would love to see the insides.  I have a #1 and have debated trying to pick up the 1st ten issues but they are tough

Just posted -- see "The Other Larson Collection" -- curious if others have her books, as they have her obvious initialing and signing and addressing in the same spots.

I've been in love with this cover since I first laid eyes on it.

Nice pick up Gene!

Thx JF! Me too; I've been on the watch for it, but they don't come up all that often. (Though Rick has a 7.0 in his current thread)

When this one popped as a new listing BIN on eBay I grabbed it fast.

I like many of the Doc Savage covers and I like Burns and Allen.  On the same cover, though?  Not so much. 

(Anybody else having trouble with PB's cropping function?  Assuming anyone is left who still uses PB!)

This unorthodox format comic book (35cm long) here brings a compilation of Secret Agent 9X drawn by Alex Raymond histories originally published in 1934. Released in 18/12/1935 in Brazil. In quite a bad shape, a nearly blank page is detached, the cover is very darkened due to exposure to dust and pollution, as the inner pages and the back cover, that has big crack on its hard cover. Plus the square bound spine is mostly gone. Yet, still like to look at it !

Very pretty Tony. I have very few Doc Savage comics. Always liked the Shadow ones better. I do have some of his premiums and a few pulps. This is one of my favorite ones.
