Macsnafu's uploads
« on: August 20, 2012, 03:24:30 AM »

I didn't think I'd really have anything to upload, as most of my comics are from the 70's and 80's, and most likely not public domain.  However, one can find some suprising stuff online, where somebody's already done the scanning for you!

I just uploaded the third Adam Ames story from a blog site I found, and I'll be uploading the fourth story as soon as I can get them downloaded and zipped up.

This site has plenty of other comic strip stories online, if anyone else wants to go digging through it:

After all, I'm only one person, and I've got a day job I have to keep up with!

:P

That's Ger Apeldoorn's blog.  An excellent site.

Thanks for going to the trouble of gathering those strips into a file for CB+.

I've just uploaded the 4th Adam Ames comic strip story. 

BTW, could someone fix the name of the 3rd story so that it matches the others?  It was my first upload, and I didn't know exactly what to expect when filling in the upload information.

Thanks!

I've uploaded Charlie Chan Color Sundays 1938-10-30 to 1939-02-12 by Alfred Andriola to the comic strips category, as there's not a specific category for Charlie Chan.  There's several more to go.  I'm reading them as I download them.  Good mysteries!

I've just uploaded the fourth Charlie Chan comic strip story, 1939-10-08 to 1939-11-19.  It's a relatively short one.

Another upload of Charlie Chan Sunday strips
« Reply #10 on: August 22, 2012, 11:04:49 PM »

I've just added a 6th story from the Charlie Chan Sunday strips, this time for the dates 1940-01-21 to 1940-03-17. 

Funny thing about this one is that there seem to be some gaps in the story, although no Sunday strips seem to be missing.  I wonder if at this point the dailies and Sundays were telling the same story, and Andriola was careless about recapping the week's events on Sunday?

Sorry for the delay--I've had some personal issues to deal with.

Re: Macsnafu's uploads - More Charlie Chan Sunday strips
« Reply #15 on: October 20, 2012, 12:21:49 AM »

I've uploaded more Charlie Chan Sunday Color strips.  This time from 1940-09-01 to 1941-03-16.  Andriola stopped doing longer stories at this point, and did several shorter bits that were only 1, 2, or 3 strips long. 

I've been busy moving to a new house with my girlfriend, and getting settled in, but I haven't forgotten you guys.  There's still more Charlie Chan strips for me to upload.

Now I'm confused.  Jim Thorpe has uploaded several Charlie Chan strips, and may have covered all the rest that I haven't gotten to, although there does seem to be some overlap between our submissions.
I'll have to go over his submissions and see if there's anything not covered.

Mac,

If your's are different scans than upload anyway.  We have often picked up various different scans of the same books.

They seem to be from the same source, but he doesn't have them organized by story like I did. Just the collection of strips over a certain time period.
