Item Description
Lot of 16 measuring between 2-3/4x4-1/4 and 3x4-1/2. This lot is comprised of all the Popeye specific (no Wimpy, Jeep, Olive, etc.) titles we have seen. All c. 1930s. Titles include “Popeye In Steppin’ Out, Popeye The Hypnotist, Popeye In Posies, Popeye In Pink Passion, Popeye The Iron Prick Man, Popeye and Miss Olive Oil, Popeye The Sailor Man!, Popeye The Sailor Gets His Ashes Hauled, Popeye The Sailor In Snatch Snatcher, Popeye The Sailor In Rowing In The Ocean, Popeye The Sailor In A Russian Hard On.” Additional title reads “Popeye The Sailor In” with no specific title. Additional four 8-pagers are titled simply “Popeye.” All deal with Popeye in various incredulous sexual exploits. Scattered wear, 3 having more noticeable creasing/aging to covers and are VG. Rest are mostly VF. Many scarce titles. Popeye had the most 8-pagers produced for any one character. An instant collection.
