Frisco Larson Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Nice! It's weird how in the ad that they used the drawing just as it was on the Tip Top #22 and on the Lil' Abner cover they reversed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts back then during the auction was I had to at least get a Larson and/or Centaur book (two factions of the hobby closely associated with Mr. Berk) from that auction. gino2paulus2 and Frisco Larson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't agree more, as I got 2 Larsons and 2 Centaurs (now sold) and an Ace book which I will likely sell in the near future to pursue other books. sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N e r V Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 They also were fresh images by S&K and not just an ad for issue #1 like Action Comics #1 in Detective comics. One in color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally was looking for a higher graded copy but this one popped up on Jimjum’s thread and presents so well I thought what the hell... I’ve owned several now but really wanted this issue back. Other than #23 which I got years ago from Gator now these issues of a Torch won’t be leaving anytime soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great looking copy for that grade! My last copy (I've had a few over the years) was a 6.0 with a small amount of reversible work. It's an easy book to find, even in nice shape, so I'll likely add it back in the future, just need to find the right copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, do you have any interest in the Super-Mystery? It's gonna be up for sale in a future thread or just outright to someone who wants it. Say the word and you got dibs.

Popular Post Robot Man Posted June 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2020 Just hit the mailbox. Not high grade or high demand but early ‘40’s Schomburg war covers for $10-15. each... who says GA is expensive? Not to mention, but these are interesting reads as well. Although #3 is obviously the “big dog”, there are several in this run with great covers.
