Pep Comics 48 May 1944. Perhaps the bizarrest of the Pep covers--the "Archiefish!"

Thanks for posting these. Early Archies are extraorindarily undeervalued,compared to other esoteric books. With the early Peps especially, you have great art,stories, pretty women,superheroes, humor, funny animals and WW 2 era nostalgia -- all still selling for tiny percentages of books that have much less going for them, and which outside the hobby would not be recognized,let alone understood,by even a small fraction of one percent of the people who would know about Archie and gang.

Hey 143ksk, I've already got these scanned through 1948, I could post! (Unless your waiting to get your copies up here!)

 

How about I just finish 1944, you tell me if I should continue...

Great thread that I just found!

 

Did you ever know a guy named John Iavarone? He was a big MLJ collector in RBCC and Stan's Weekly Express in the 70's.

 

I'm sure he completed his collection at some point!
