"Violent Crimes" is a fake title, from the site The Artist Den.net, about the fake publisher Zig Zoosman and his "Zeus Comics" line. Geo's picture appears to be from that site.

It could be, I don't remember where I got it from as I didn't post it up right away.

Nice to have that mystery solved. Thanks!

I was perusing eBay for one of the last few missing Famous Funnies books and found this photo for sale. It shows a single Famous Funnies in a box on the right. I can't ID it from what's showing, but maybe if the pulp beside it could be ID'd you could narrow it down. Unfortunately, although Thrilling Adventures (the pulp) ran for almost 15 years only a single issue has been scanned so I doubt that issue could be easily ID'd.

Actually there are relatively few Famous Funnies covers with the 10 cents under the S and given the cover's light colored I would say it's probably #131 (June 1945).
I could not find any list of covers for Thrilling Adventures from 1945, (just random covers in no special order) so I couldn't really compare.
I thought that magazine with the Co on the cover might have been Colliers, but they had a smaller logo in a box.

The Colliers is October 3 http://www.amazon.com/Colliers-October-3-Mexicos-Communists-Farnsworth/dp/B008DS82RO
And the Famous Funnies is #27 Cover Oct 1936. You can see the guy's dark square shoulder, a blurry tree and a blurry speech bubble :)
O and behind is a Liberty Oct 3 with a cover ... um ... very much of its time!
