ASM 15 has not been confirmed. You're right about 30 .

Also TTA 67, forgot that one.

Fantastic Four #67 also exists, though I haven't owned it for 33 years.
It's from 1967 and is twice-up.

If you have a dream about out-posting me, you better wake up and apologize.

Also FF 55

I do think that a lot of these covers are out and buried in collections or closets. The majority of twice up Romita ASM are accounted for and the 49 just surfaced last year after hanging on an elderly lady's wall for over three decades. More will surface.

from memory, only these few pre 1965 covers have surfaced...

ASM 11 and 28
Avengers 16
FF 40
X Men 10 unpublished
Thor Ann 1
JIM 122 and 123

That leaves a lot unaccounted for.


Daredevil # 5, from 1964 and #s 8, 9 and 10 from 1965.

ff 55 and 67 are later than 1965.

I was just talking about 1965 or earlier. Those DD covers count though.

FACT if I stop posting, trillions and trillions of transistors would be out of work.

I would settle for someone to post a couple of great covers, just so I could drool over them.


Hardly in the big league (though, to my mind the Subby cover, as an image, is up there with the best of 'em), here are my three remaining large art 1960s Marvel covers:





These are all great covers and I thank you for showing them.
Anyone else got anymore tucked away.

I have a humble blog where I like to post some key pieces and rarities that I find in CAF, art dealers sites or whatever. I think that proper credit and a link to the source is also necessary, so I include it when possible.

A very well known collector asked me many months ago to remove his name from a couple key Kirby covers because he got sick about people trying to buy them, so he chose to remove them from his CAF Gallery.

With the lack of fresh stuff reaching the open market, I wonder if this has caused that collectors with the need of his regular shot are becoming more agressive in their inquires to other collectors.

I wonder if this fact not only prevents collectors to display for first time their pieces in CAF but it push other people to remove them from CAF, which would be a sad loss.

In other hand, the site Whatifkirby.com shows many interesting pieces by Kirby, and many of them are uncredited. This is a way for many collectors to show part of their collection without the hassle to get people making annoying inquires.

Since many art dealers contribute with their Kirby pieces at Cons, this site also allows to enjoy forever those pieces that sometimes get buried in collectors vaults.

If someone doesn't know that site, it's a must for any Kirby fan! It has a zoom tool that allows to enjoy till the smallest detail thanks to the hires high quality scans. Highly recommended!!! \(thumbs u

Strange Tales # 138, November 1965 also exists.

Interstingly, I always considered that a Severin cover. It's a Kirby inked by Severin.
