Notes:
This issue of Comic Reprints is an exact reprint of Comic Magazines’ Hit Comics #1 (July, 1940).
The only differences are:
- the entire issue, except for the color cover, is in black and white
- there is an ad for "OL' TIME RADIO in the form of ‘INSTANT LOAD’ CASSETTE" from "REMEMBER RADIO, INC." on the facing page is an ad for several Nostalgia, Inc. publications. These as are found between the “The Strange Twins” and the “Bob and Swab” stories.
- the back cover is an ad for Comic Reprints ([1] – [10])
Even the indicia are a reprint of the original. There is no mention of Nostalgia, Inc. as the publisher of this reprint in the issue. However, it definitely is an issue from the Comic Reprints series; it is advertised as such in the in-house ads in issues [8] – [11] and in the “NOTES FROM A COMIC BOOK FREAK” editorial in “The Best of…Captain Marvel”.
***There is no cover price on this comic except for the original 10 cents. The price was given as:
$3.00 or 3 for $8.00 or 6 for $15.00 or 9 for $24.00 in the in-house ads in [8] – [11] and in the editorial in “The Best of… Captain Marvel”.
