A cascading cornucopia of cool comics, crazy cartoons, & classic collectables - plus other completely captivating & occasionally controversial contents. With nostalgic notions, sentimental sighings, wistful wonderings, remorseful ruminations, melancholy musings, rueful reflections, poignant ponderings, & yearnings for yesteryear. (And a few profound perplexities, puzzling paradoxes, & a bevy of big, beautiful, bedazzling, buxom Babes to round it all off.)

And another nice array of Timely covers. What spoiled some of the Timely strips for me was the joined-up handwriting for the lettering. It was hard work on the eyes and I had 20/20 vision back in'68!
And the fact that the reproduction of the Timely strips reprinted in Fantasy Masterpieces wasn't that great wouldn't have helped, JP. You should consider getting the Timely Collection book - it's a good read. See if your local library has it.
Man these are lovely ! Never seen these before, thanks for putting them up :)
Glad you enjoyed them, G. What did you think of the other covers?
Loved the whole collection of these covers
Good show. I liked them all myself.
I didn't actually notice the poor reproduction back in '68, but I do remember those stories being hard work on the eyes.
As I no longer have those FM's, a splash page gallery would be welcome, if you have them handy?
There were 11 issues of Fantasy Masterpieces, JP, before it changed to Marvel Superheroes with its 12th issue. (Not to be confused with the one-shot mag of the same name from 1966.) I have a few of them, but because they're 68 page square-bound Specials, it might be difficult to open them wide enough for scanning. I'll check them out and get back to you.
