Do we have any of the Fawcett XMAS COMICS?


I see that the first issue is a whopping 320 pages!!!


WOW!!!

Yoc:
Nope, none as far as I know but boy, we sure would love to see some shared here one day!

bminor:
It is expensive, but man I have never seen as  large a page count as that!

OtherEric:
I actually saw one issue at a local shop back in the 90’s, at a price I couldn’t afford then but would jump on now... I think around $150?


At least the book just has other issues, no new content as far as I know.


Biggest page count on a GA book I own is “only” 232 pages, so not too close...

Those massive Fawcett 'Gift' & 'Xmas' 324 pagers are unique. I always wanted one as a kid in the 1940s, but some how could never get the 50 cents to buy one. That was a lot of money then - probably around $10 today? I finally got one (Gift #1) by trading 10 of my ordinary comics for it. The ones I've seen since then seem to be bound very tightly with heavy staples. They would be hard to scan without damage because they don't  open flat and the picture panels are very close to the binding. None of the stories were new; the books were compilations of past Fawcett issues bound together as one at Christmas time. It would be interesting to know if each yearly issue had the same contents, or was bundled with different stories.
