Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. All in Color for a Dime; edited by Dick Lupoff & Don Thompson; Arlington House, New Rochelle, NY, 1970. From the blurb The comic book must have been the greatest bargain in the world. For 10c, you got 64 pages of colorful adventure and an array of tales more outlandish and more exciting than those in the Thousand and One Nights. You met a swell bunch of fellows upright guardians of liberty and justice and freedom for all. And for a little while, you also were a masked, caped, fearless Hero. The dime comic book is no longer with us. But now you have a chance once more to fight crime along side your favorite Caped Crusader, shiver at the thought of those demonic bad guys, whisper those terrific magic formulas, and relive the long afternoons of your childhood. Just leaf through the pages of this book the gloriously illustrated, funny, fascinating, time-stopping saga of the Super Heroes on the comic book. Eleven collectors, captained by Dick Lupoff and Don Thompson, have banded together to tell you how it was in the Golden Days of the Comic Hero. Result: the most delicious treat since the banana was split. These misty-eyed excursions into nostalgia of rare comic books, collectors' items costing, in some cases, up to $250 an issue. You'll drool over these glorious pictures: 15 of them in full, rich color. Others are in black & white, sprinkled through the book like prizes in a whole truckload of Crackerjacks. As you turn the pages of this book, you'll meet 100 comic book heroes. But you'll also meet yourself, as a kid growing up in a time when you could get all the excitement you could handle, in color, for only a dime. This book, 263 pages, is in fine condition. The dust jacket is in near-fine condition and is now in a protective mylar wrap. An early book on the collectability of comic books.
