Does Barney Baxter (1956) exist? It's not listed on Comics.org or on mycomicshop.com
Listed on Mile High but no scans and not in stock. Listed on CPG but no scans.

The Barney Baxter issues may not exist... there is an entry for them in Gerber but no pictures. I have been looking several years for them to no avail.

Hmmm....

I was actually reviewing Argo today, Earl....I even had all the titles written down with # of issues to post in here.  This time, though, I did a search first.  (We'll pretend that Fago thing never happened, 'k?)

I have spent the last hour or so trolling the internet, and I find plenty of mentions saying Argo published reprints of this strip, but no actual images, either.

I will keep looking.

I found this on Toonpedia.  It states that Argo published two reprint issues in 1956.

I found an article in Comicbook Marketplace that claims they are phantom issues.

Hey, I ran across your discussion of ARGO when searching for info on a rare pulp magazine.

STARTLING CRIMES published by ARGO PUBLISHING CO. which can be seen here...

http://www.philsp.com/data/images/s/startling_crimes_194505_ashcan.jpg

Possibly not the same publisher, but if anyone has any info, I'd gladly listen!

Thanks!
