Both up.  Thanks Darwin.  Sorry, I don't have a better cover scan for that St.John book.

Thanks also for all the unique scans you've been sharing lately.

A nice little treat for the weekend.  Thanks to all the scanners for the comics as of late



This one starts out with a fun Jack Kamen/ Al Feldstein story.  I love the inside front covers on the fox comics with a story splash.

Cheers,

Darwin

My Secret Marriage 008



Sigh, I know, I have sleazy taste in romance covers  ::)

Nice art in here!  The printer seems to have mauled this pretty good, but I'll keep my eye out for more superior romances.

Cheers,

Darwin

My scan, Icarus' edit.  Justice Traps the Guilty 007 from November 48.  Simon/Kirby crime.  Icarus turned out a very nice edit considering the wavy paper that was kind of bleeding a blueish color throughout.  Thanks for the edit, Icarus.  :)

Here's the Canadian edition of My Secret Affair 002 printed by Superior in Canada for Fox.  Would the American edition have a colored ifc where this one is black and white?  The batch of Canadian goldenage books I got that I listed back a page or two are something else.  They smell like they were kept in some sort of sweet-wooden trunk or something.  They've never been bagged and have some browning of the pages but haven't been molested much by human hands either.  I look forward to scanning them for sure.  I guess eventually we will want to have Canadian and American versions of all these, eh?   Overstreet says Wally Wood art in this one, but I haven't read it yet (tho Im gonna right now! ;D)

Love this cover, there's something so charming about the Fox brand of sleaze, I can't help but love it. 

Enjoy,

Darwin

Would the American edition have a colored ifc where this one is black and white? 


It was probably 2-color in the US edition.  With the exception of an early issue of Zoot, all the Fox books with story in the IFC that I've seen were black and one other color.

Looks like fun, and Wood art is often a treat.  (Sadly, it's not _always_ a treat.  Normally his earlier stuff is more consistent, though.)

Keen Teens 03 (1947-02.Magazine Enterprises)



I don't recognize the actor on the cover (Guy Madison) but think these early teen books with idols and musicians on the cover are pretty neat.  The cover girl is drawn by Craig Flessel when he was working for Vincent Sullivan at Magazine Enterprises.  I've heard that some of the early teen or romance comics were more like magazines, and this title seems to fit the bill.  There is illustrated fiction (including a couple neat Ogden Whitney illos.), cartoons, fashion, a bicycle maintainence checklist, screen gossip, Juke Janson comics, advice on etiquette, a survey for the readers and more.  Neat stuff from when comics for girls seemed like more of a possibility.

Enjoy,

Darwin

P.S.  I've got issue one of this (with Sinatra on the cover) buried in my pile which I will get to sometime, tho probably not anytime too soon.

Hey, Darwination,
That's WILD BILL HICKOCK on the cover of that Keen Teens. Don't you remember Andy Devine yelling "Hey, Wild Bill, wait for me!"?

ps. it's CrEig Flessel, not CrAig.
Don't ask me why it's spelled that way, but I'll bet he dealt with that mistake all of his life.

This is not my scan!  And I usually don't post covers of comics that I didn't scan but I gotta make an exception from time to time I suppose.  Teen-Age Romances 15, I so love the covers on this series:



I've been looking for this scan forever!  Mouse found it for me, and some kind soul gave it to him and some kind soul probably scanned it for that guy and now I'm kindly passing it along.  Yay!  Thank you to all involved in the chain of getting me this scan  ;D.  I've kind of been off in magazine and pulp land for a bit, but I will try and hop back on the goldenage horse asap.  Thanks to all of you that have been scanning up a storm and working on the JVJ project, it's a super time to be a golden age fan.

Cheers,

Darwin

Well I gave it to Mouse, but I have no recollection of who I got it from.  It was almost certainly ABPC though.

I found this one on ABPC a while back as well but didn't catch any scanner credit.
Lovely book too - lots of Baker or Baker like artwork in it.  Nice big scans too.

Young Romance 060 (v06n12)(1953-08.Prize)



I spent the morning in the golden age but will be spending the afternoon raking leaves on a chilly day.
Can't win em all.  ;D

A nice romance comic featuring Simon and Kirby art.  Enjoy,

Darwin
