Remember Goober (The Andy Griffith Show). He wore one and it was around the same time period, also he always had a comic book rolled up in his back pocket, same as Gomer.

started scanning books I picked up at Austin Comic-Con. We'll start with the Archies
And this one I love because I'm a gambler and enjoy playing craps most of all.

Thanks! I don't think I started buying them off the rack until it was in the 40s or 50s.

Got some nice Silver Age DC/Marvel at the Long Beach Con:
1st Silver Age Two-Face:
This is the "Big One", I've put off getting this for years & now that I have it, the highest # of GL I need is now #13. I need 6 total issues to complete my GL run:
I had to find out why George Washington was screwing with Rip Hunter!
Working on my Animal Man run from Strange Adventures. That gorilla is a snappy dresser!
Wonderful Joe Kubert cover!
That crazy Superman!
Human Torch vs. Asbestos Man. I think is power is that you get cancer 30 years after fighting him.....

Awesome GL 76 bob! I'm working on that run, but not to the point of buying that book yet. I've read that it's the showcase 4 of the Bronze Age.

It is.
I think I'll end up paying less for GL #2
