Sometime back, I ran across some info at Google Books, "Adapting Poe: Re-Imaginings in Popular Culture", that mentioned "The Gold Bug" had been serialized in David C. Cook's "SUNDAY PIX" weekly comic-book. This is the same series that featured "THE BIBLE", as illustrated by Andre LeBlanc (I have the collection of the Old Testament, which is terrific, although the size of the art has been reduced... grrrr).
Because I'd read of instances where weekly serials had later been collected into "Classics"-- Gilberton and Pendulum and even Bruguera did this early-on-- I wasn't sure if this might be the same version seen in Gilberton.
IT'S NOT. Yes, the "CLASSICS ILLUSTRATED" version is AT LEAST version 2 !!!
Someone at the Comic Book Plus site scanned in and posted an entire issue of the series from 1964.
However, many (far from all) of the FRONT pages have been scanned & posted-- rather small size-- at the GCD. Good grief!
As a result of this, I now have rather small scans of 13 of the 14 pages. Only missing page 1....
Of course, I could use MUCH BIGGER scans...... Can anybody out there help?
I need only the 1st pages of SUNDAY PIX Vol.1 #1-14, May 1 - July 31, 1949.
