Title: Want to Obtain Golden Age Comics Scans of Obscure Funny Animal Series
Post by: Robb_K on October 20, 2019, 10:47:27 PM
Hi everyone,
I'm very happy to find this website.  I have a large collection of digital comics files, some of which are not up yet on Comic Book + .  I will offer those not here yet to your management, but many of my files are not complete books, as I generally remove the adverts and often the text-only stories.  I specialise mainly in late 1930s, 1940s and 1950s Funny Animal and cartoony art style Human character comedy, staying away from "realistically-drawn Human character driven series.

I am hoping to fill in what's missing in my collection, by swapping book files privately with other Funny Animal fans, so I can obtain what is not available to me from this website or DCM.

Below: I've attached my personal "Most Wanted List"  of  PD books below (updated 1/22/2019):

Non of those have been scanned, otherwise they would be on the site.

I removed the Super Ducks from the list of yours, only #1 is PD, all the others are NOT PD.

A lot of the ACG books have been scanned, they are just awaiting edits, along with some Sniffy the Pup and Supermoose.

Also, asking for Non-PD books to be sent privately was deleted from the message.

Thanks for uploading "Super Duck #1" from my list, plus several of the Nedor/Standard books I listed.  I hope you will be able to load all the Giggle and Ha Ha books I requested.  They are what I want most, and You have ALL The Giggles, and are missing only one Ha Ha (and I already have about a third of the pages in that particular book). I will post a second list after most of these are uploaded, with Fawcett, Four Star/Star/Ajax/Farrel, Fox Features, Harvey,Magazine Enterprises, and Quality books needed.

I am currently checking your most current "wanted for upload list", to see which books you still have unscanned, and don't have ready-to-scan, or ready-to-edit, that I can send scans to you for uploading.  I have a fair amount of scans of almost full books you are missing, but most of those have the full advertising pages missing, and also written on puzzle pages, and text story pages that don't have interesting, high-quality artwork on them.  I also have scans of many partial books from which you have NO pages.  But, as you upload partial books, often with only a small % of their original total pages, I assume you'll want these.  Some of my scans are .cbr and .cbz files, but, many are made up of just individual page .jpg files.  Will I need to convert those individual files, collected into comic book folders to usable zip files for your use?  If so, could you please tell me how to convert them to the type of file you want?  I use an I-Mac G5.  Thanks.

Thanks for uploading many of the Better/Nedor/Standard comics I had on my list.  But, I also saw your list of ACG/Creston comics (Giggle, HaHa, and Funny Films) you had that have already been scanned, but just need editing, and also those whose location is known, but need to be scanned. 

I wondered why you haven't uploaded any of those.  They are what I want most.  Is there any way I can help with the editing, or any other task, to help facilitate their being uploaded sooner?
