A handful of oddities unearthed!

in #comics5 years ago

I will post later about an amazing find, just now I'll show these three
babies that just came into my hands!

They are oddities, because of the size, and the condition. Although not pristine mint, they are great, taking into account that because of their size, they are difficult to keep in storage.

They are from 1955/1956 from a very obscure publishing house here in Mexico, Editorial ECA.

These are the three items I found!

I'm going to post the individual images for better appreciation:

This one is from Dec.1955:

This is a picture of one of these giants sitting along a copy of El Sorprendente Hombre Araña from La Prensa!

And finally, an image of a human being holding one of these beauties!

Hope you enjoy these minor oddities I'm showing you, and a sincere apology for the long absence!

Cheers!

No apologies needed, but it’s good to see you again! The scale of those comics was not at all apparent until those last couple photos. I can see how keeping them in good condition was a challenge!

That's right! And these are in great, great condition, @bryan-Imhoff!

wow, those are cool! Do you happen to have any more info on them? Like did that publisher do all this comics that size? was that size more common in Mexico at the time? (I think I remember Marvel did some special edition annuals roughly that size and there were some EC hard cover collections that were 11x17 inches)
