Mistake with Name of Golden Age Artist

The Golden Age comic artist Jack Burnley is in the CPG data-base as Jack Burnley-Rarety.

I can find no reference to the hyphenated name except where it appears on CPG.

Thanks for sharing that! That was an interesting read, one that my searching hadn't turned up.

Insuring your collection

I personally recommend Collectibles Insurance. The prices seem reasonable for the coverage of their policies, the exclusions seem reasonable and they're easy to work with. A simple email with value amendments to the policy is all that's required to add items over 25k to the policy.
With that said, the real measure of any insurance company is how are they about paying a claim. Unfortunately I had a claim (different type of collectible) about 15 years ago. The loss occurred outside the home and exceeded the policy coverage. They did their due diligence to validate the claim and then promptly paid the covered amount. My fellow traveler had a significantly smaller loss, he filed his claim through his home owners policy and had a very difficult time getting paid. He went through a criminal type investigation before they would pay out. we had two very different experiences.

The cover image for War Heroes #5 by Dell shows the cover of War Stories #5.

The correct image is

Additionally, I don't believe there is an 11th issue of the series.

Any chance this title can get added to the database? I've got a few copies from this series that I'd like to include on my list.
Thanks!

Many of the Golden Age comics are missing the covers. Instead of the cover I'm seeing a ?.

For example; https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/startling-comics/phpui


This happened awhile ago and I figured they would reappear at some point.

That's the series. I didn't think to check other the country setting in the search parameters.
It's definitely a US published and printed comic.
