| Updated. I can't keep doing this, as books seem to become geometrically more expensive the earlier they are. 
Anyways, from Feb. 1940, Marvel Mystery #4.

| This book isn't a comic so it doesn't quite qualify as my oldest book, but it's nevertheless a neat item.
From June 1936, Weird Tales vol. 27 #6, with a great Margaret Brundage vampire cover.

What's goin' on with her foot? If she's kicking his shin, I say "Good for you girl!"

| speedy - I don't know what the deal is with her foot. It looks to me that the original painting got smeared when it went in to be made into a cover. e - That's the first cover with Namor (and also is the second cover with a swastika).
