Just a reminder that Frank M. Young has just published a three volume bibliography of the comics work of John Stanley, the mastermind of Dell Comics' Little Lulu series from 1945 to 1959. These volumes offer a total of 470 pages of information and images.
Based on years of research, these three volumes purport to chronicle every comic book story John Stanley wrote (and sometimes drew). The cover of every comic book listed is reproduced in color, as are sample pages from stories, in-house ads and original art.
Here are some sample spreads from the three volumes:
Click on each image to enlarge it. Each book is 8 x 10 inches, professionally printed and bound in matte-finish softcover. Each book offers bonus materials. The 1940s and '60s books contain a selection of rare John Stanley stories--none of them ever presented here on Stanley Stories. Large images of Stanley's distinctive cover drawings grace the 1940s and 1950s books.
These books are the definitive resource for a study and appreciation of the work of John Stanley. They can be purchased from amazon.com.

For the 1950s edition, click HERE.
For the 1960s edition, click HERE.
You can look inside all three books on amazon, where they're affordably priced. Take a look! These could make a perfect holiday gift for the comics lover in your life--or for yourself!
