disneyteddies (11/16/2009)
The first pic has three Action Comics #1's (if it's real). I found more info on the Boris Karloff picture.
If it is to be believed this is from the little girl in the picture with him.
"Hi! I just came across this blog... I am the little girl in the photo. I am Lynne White from Seattle. I lived in the Malibu Colony when I was little. The photo is taken when I was 5. My good friends father was a photographer and they needed a little girl to pose. It was taken at the Malibu Colony Drug store which is no longer around and has been replaced by a high end mall. I was looking for this photo because my 40th year High School reunion is coming up and someone asked me about it."
Pretty cool to have a follow up explanation decades later. The man with the twiggy little mustache is Bud Collyer, the voice of Superman on the radio at the time.
Boris Karloff bought her some EC comics when she was 5 and it didn't cause long-term mental damage?
What a rip-off

| No problem, more to come. I don't know who took any of these, I just (ahem) borrowed them from the internet. LoL.
I've got a brand new funny video for my collectibles research website, Part 2 of the "Gotham Growl" with Batman (the Dark Knight version). http://www.youcollectweconnect.com/Videos.html

Not to spoil the fun, but the very first picture is photoshopped. Can't remember where I read that, but it was along the first time I saw that picture.

I noticed in that pic that it looked like the scale of those action comics looked a little big compared to the man.But golden age books are a little on the bigger side I also noticed the same cover of certain books all over the stand that seamed weird .But even if it is photo shoped I still enjoyed it and all the other photo's .
