There is also to say that the printed quality (paper+print) of 1940s comic books, up to the early 1970s I would say, is a lot better than what has come afterwards. For example, there are Doctor Strange stories drawn by Rudy Nebres (I have a Rudy Nebres original) or Tom Sutton, which were drawn and inked with high detail, a wonderful rendition which got almost completely "massacred" by the bad printed quality of 1970s.
Said this, Marie Severin is simply great. ;)

Sidenote-- I emailed N. Chris Couch who works with Jerry Robinson about my London Scans, Jerry does not have any of these issues, but according to Chris, DarkHorse might do a London VOlume, So be sure to hold on to the raw 300dpi tiffs of the London story in issue 8. It would be great if the DCM could help Jerry put this volume together!!

I have never been a Batman reader, but as we were talking about this, I see Jerry Robinson just passed away, and I’m very sad. :'(
Jeff, now it would be really great if we could help in that reprint. Do you know how long the "London" feature lasted? I have not looked at all the early digital Daredevils yet.

While I've seen plenty of miserably printed comics from the Golden Age (were Charlton's ever decently printed?) I suspect you're right that comic book printing had deteriorated by the 1970s. Much of that I would probably blame on the cost-cutting introduction of plastic printing plates at the time.
Still, it was that "high detail" work that was exactly the kind of thing Kubert was telling us not too get too enamored with as it would be the first thing lost in the comic book printing process.
Best

Heartbreaking news on so many levels... Robinson was one of the greatest class acts in the history of the medium. London went from issues 2-9 I believe.
