Give-A-Show Friday: The Updated Checklist!

Notes: When Give-A-Show was first produced, the slides were printed on plastic and mounted on cardboard frames. These frames had a single color of ink printed on them with the character, story name, copyright date, and two pictures of the character. Through the 1960s, this was the format, and so I've taken to using the color and year to distinguish each release from the other.

Sometime after 1970, Kenner decided to change how their Give-A-Show slides were listed. Since I haven't collected many post-1970 sets so far, I'm not sure if color is still a designator (the 1974 slides I have use blue printing, while the 1976 slides have kind of a purplish printing on them). The frame also has the corners beveled, which I presume made them easier to insert in the projectors.

Notes: Either in 1977 or 1978, Kenner changed the slides again. Gone were the cardboard frames; instead, the entire slide strip was a single piece of plastic with solid black print for frames. I'm beginning to suspect that this was a contributing factor to fewer 1970s slides being available for collectors today!

Give-A-Show Friday: Better Late Than Never!

Geez, I completely forgot last night about Give-A-Show Friday! Well, here's a multiple-feature installment!

First up, Andy Panda!











Next, it's Baby Huey!











BONUS #1! "The Haunted Mine"











BONUS #2! Roy Rogers!

I'm not sure what happened to my scan of the full frame...









Next week, it's back to a double-feature, leading off with Captain Kangaroo!

Heroes World #1, Pages 16-19!

Let's continue with the Heroes World Catalog, shall we?



Here's page 16, featuring Mego's Micronauts! Rather than post a bunch of Micronauts pictures, let me point you to this link, which should take you to a slideshow of all the Micronauts photos I've grabbed off of eBay!



On to page 17, with a whole bunch of superhero cars! Since I hardly have any of these, I won't share any photos of them... I should say, since I hardly have photos of any of these, there doesn't seem to be much point in posting the few I've got!



And on to page 18, featuring the Energized Super-Heroes from Remco! Let's see how many of these I have photos of, shall we?



Ah, there's Batman... no Bat-Copter so far, however!



And Captain America, who's not even mentioned, I think...



A loose Spider-Man, of course...



The Spider-Copter...



Superman...



Ah, there's the Green Goblin... I knew I had a pic of him!



The Energized Hulk! That's all of the ones I have... well, at least one of each! Stick with this blog long enough, you'll likely see more!

Those radio-controlled cars were produced by AHI...



And there's the Spider-Mobile...



...and here's one of my photos of the R/C Batmobile!

Lots of AHI stuff yet to be posted here, too... they did Batman and Spidey stuff, plus monsters, Planet of the Apes, and more!



And I'll leave you here with page 19, which as a lot of very cool stuff, but my photo files aren't quite organized well enough to let me dig up photos... but they'll show up sometime in a "Found on eBay" post, I promise!

Found on eBay: Original Comic Art!

Figured I'd throw in a bonus post for you guys tonight... here's some more original Comic Book Art... Found on eBay! Many of these may currently be offered on eBay! Most of these, if you click on them, will let you see them at a larger size.



From Avengers 81, here's page 5, art by John Buscema. I believe this is the tale that introduced the modern-day Red Wolf. Notice that Clint Barton's using the Goliath identity here!



Next up is this nice Bob Brown page from Batman #248. This would be page 12 of the story, which I have to confess I don't recognize.



This Irv Novick splash page from Batman 317 is another story I don't recall... and you'd think with a Riddler appearance, if I'd ever read it, I'd remember it! Novick's long been one of my favorite 1970s Batman artists, although I didn't really think his style was so appropriate on The Flash.



Next up is the artwork for the Batman daily comic strip! This one was published on 7/7/1945, and is credited to Bob Kane. Who knows if he really did the work or not?



I'm guessing this Dick Sprang Batman sketch is of fairly recent vintage.



Next is Nick Cardy's awesome cover for The Brave and the Bold 98, featuring Batman and Wildcat!



Here's a rare Charlton cover offered on eBay... it's by Jose Delbo, and is the cover for Billy The Kid #106, an issue I used to have! As you can see, the logo and other pasted-on items are long gone. When I've come across artwork like this, I'm always tempted to "restore" the artwork by copying and pasting the missing logos and so forth!

It's a really nice cover... in many ways, it's better than some of the stuff Delbo would later do for DC Comics!



Next is the cover for Harvey's Black Cat Western #16, art by Lee Elias. Well, I think his first name was Lee... I could be misremembering! But a quick check at the Grand Comics Database shows I'm right! This is another piece of artwork where the pasted-on items are long-gone... and it's a very nice piece of work! Elias deserves a lot more recognition than he's received.



This cover is Elias' work for Black Cat #23, and it's also a very nice piece of work that still has one line of text still there!

I'm pretty sure that if I could ever afford to buy any of this artwork, I'd prepare some kind of overlay with the missing items re-created for displaying.



From the same series, but retitled "Black Cat Mystery" and no longer featuring Linda Turner's alter-ego, here's Warren Kremler's cover for #37! Kremler's another underrated comics talent, if you ask me.



This rather grotesque cover for Black Cat Mystery #40 is by Joe Simon! By the way, both the Black Cat Mystery covers can be viewed at a HUGE size by clicking on them!



Black Cat Mystic isn't a later iteration of Black Cat Mystery. This is issue 60's cover, which the seller says is by Jack Kirby. I can't find any listing for this book in the Grand Comics Database, so it may have been prepared for something that wasn't published. It's not even listed in Overstreet!



On the other hand, this cover for The Black Panther #12 is absolutely, positively Kirby all the way!



And we wrap up this installment with page 15 of The Brave and the Bold #116 (I think... my file name says #16, but I know that's not right, so I either left a digit out or something else is wrong!) by Jim Aparo, featuring the Spectre! The GCD says B&B 116 featured a Batman-Spectre team-up, so I'd say that's where this is from!

Next time, we start off with a Neal Adams B&B cover, and go on from there!
