Pre-National TV Guides Are Always A Ratings Hit With Collectors Early television has produced a number of interesting collectibles. At the top of the list for many video collectors are the so-called “pre-national TV Guide” issues, which populated the nation’s newsstands from 1948 to 1953.

TeleVision Guide almost always heads the list. Founded by Lee Wagner, TeleVision Guide made its debut on June 14, 1948, with the title later shortened to simply TV Guide on March 18, 1950.

Walter Annenberg purchased New York City TV Guide in 1952, paying $1.5 million for the privilege.

founded by brothers Arthur and Irvin Borowsky, which published its first issue on November 7, 1948. The Local Televiser later underwent a name change on May 1, 1949, when it became TV Digest.

The Local Televiser issues are rare, with not a whole lot of documentation available as to cover subjects. Values for editions with common covers would probably begin at around $30.

TV Lifes would probably start at $10 to $15.

Another hot collector title is Chicago Television Forecast/TV Forecast, which ran from May 9, 1948 to May 27, 1953. For anyone interested in early Chicago television, these issues are a virtual goldmine of information.

Many of the early issues from 1948 and 1949 can sell in the $20 to $100 range, depending on cover subject. Some of the more valuable editions include the following: April 23, 1949, Milton Berle ($70); December 22, 1951, Walt Disney ($160); May 10, 1952, Lucille Ball ($200); May 24, 1952, Howdy Doody ($200); November 8, 1952, the Nelson Family ($100) and December 20, 1952, Howdy Doody/Captain Video/Mr. Wizard ($140).

The various pre-national TV Guides from the Los Angeles metropolitan area can keep diehard collectors salivating for years. The earliest L.A. prenational title is Radio-Television

New York City TeleVision Guide, September 3, 1949, with Kukla, Fran and Ollie cover.

Much more is known about Philadelphia TV Digest, whose final issue was March 27, 1953.

TV Digest produced an array of highly collectible editions as witnessed by these coveted issues and their approximate values: November 22, 1952, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz ($175); November 29, 1952, Hopalong Cassidy ($160); December 27, 1952, Buffalo Bob Smith and Howdy Doody ($200) and March 7, 1953, Groucho Marx and George Fenneman of You Bet Your Life ($40). TV Digest also affords collectors a chance to read up on such local TV personalities as Ernie Kovacs and Ed McMahon, both of whom later achieved national fame.

Also from Philadelphia is Ideal TV Life, which began its pre-national publishing odyssey very late in the game on May 23, 1953.

Sold at Acme Supermarkets and American Stores, Ideal TV Life apparently continued publishing until late 1953 when it folded under the onslaught of national TV Guide.

Worth TV Preview, October 17, 1953, Dinah Shore ($20).

Condition, rarity and cover subject play major roles in determining values. Regarding the latter, cartoon, kiddie and TV cowboy characters, space shows (Captain Video, Tom Corbett – Space Cadet), sports figures and such early TV icons as Milton Berle, Groucho Marx, Jackie Gleason and Lucille Ball/Desi Arnaz are always top draws.

TV Time began in June 1948 and continued publishing after the April 3, 1953, debut of national

Recor d-Setting $8.79 Million-Plus Heritage Auction Comics Event tions more than a decade ago, boggling 99.9 percent sellno comic auction had ever through rate by total value. All exceeded $2.2 million. We’ve prices below include 19.5 percent Buyer’s Premium.

The star of the auction was, without a doubt, the inimitable Billy Wright Collection, which realized $3.5 million by itself, led by Wright’s incredible CGC FN+ 6.5 copy of Detective Comics #27 (DC, 1939). The comic brought $522,813, the third-highest price the Heritage Comics category has realized for any comic book or piece of original art in the comic category’s history.

“The Wright copy of Detective #27 was emblematic of the incredible quality of the collection,” said Lon Allen, Managing Director of the Comics Category at Heritage.

“With just 345 comics in all, it featured fully 44 of the top 100 comics of all time, many in simply superb condition, which the uniformly great prices reflect.”

Other highlights from Billy now almost quadrupled that.”

All told, the auction realized $8.3 million-plus on 1,854 lots, translating into a mind-

Wright include Batman #1 (DC, 1940) CGC VF+ 8.5, which brought close to double the Overstreet Price Guide value when it finished the day at $274,850, All-American Comics #16 (DC, 1940) CGC VF 8.0, the first appearance of Green Lantern, which realized $203,150 on its way to becoming the most ever realized for any copy of this comic and Captain America Comics #2 (Timely, 1941) CGC NM 9.4, which became the rare nonmajor “Key” comic book to break the $100,000 mark when it realized $113,525.

The original comic art section of the auction was led by the incredibly rare Bill Watterson Calvin and Hobbes 1989-1990 Calendar Cover Watercolor Illustration Original Art, circa 1988, which brought $107,550 from a determined high-end collector.

“We knew that collectors would love this piece,” said (Continued on page 15)

Historic Price For Historic Soda Fountain!

The auction catalog showed a top assessed value of $125,000 for a soda fountain from 1893. But, as all collectors know, in an auction anything can happen. And it did... When bidding stopped, the price was $4.5 million! “I’m stunned,” said Larry Schmidt, organizer of the auction held by the Schmidt Museum of Coca-Cola Memorabilia of Elizabethtown, Kentucky.

“We thought that maybe it could go for as high as $1 million. But this is incredible.”

Who’s to say what a piece of history is worth? The soda fountain was built for the Columbian Exhibition at the World’s Fair in Chicago.

ture including fine illustrations often the priciest of all.

Students of juvenile literature are sometimes surprised to discover that just a couple of centuries ago books written for the enjoyment of kids were not available at all! Back in the 1600s children were encouraged to read, but only literature which was considered “instructive” was permitted. Of course, our parents like our books to deliver a helpful message, too. But the

Things got a little bit more interesting when John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress appeared in 1678. It was intended to teach “moral development,” but the hero, Christian, has some pretty neat adventures with a satisfying amount of gratuitous violence and children apparently found it entertaining.

It was English writer/philosopher John Locke who proposed the then-radical idea that perhaps children who could read should be provided with pleasant, easy books.

Further, he thought, if the books had pictures, the young readers might be encouraged to read even more. He recommended Aesop’s Fables as an appropriate selection for young readers.

Early in the 18th century two books written for adults - Robinson Crusoe and Gulliver’s Travels - were quickly embraced by children. In the mid-1700s John Newbury, an admirer of John Locke and a writer and publisher as well, began a brand new line of books written especially for children. A Pretty Little Pocket Book and History of Little Goody Two Shoes might not be very entertaining by today’s standards, but young readers of 1795 must have been delighted by the gilt-papered covers, the attractively decorated pages and the engaging stories and rhymes. Newbury’s success tipped off other publishers that perhaps there was a market for books written specifically for children.

Today the coveted Newbury Award given to the author of each year’s outstanding contribution to children’s literature is named for this marketing pioneer.

In the early 1800s in Germany brothers Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm, students of German folk talkes, put together a volume containing eighty-five stories, including such now-familiar titles as Cinderella, Hansel and (Continued on page 24)

STORYBOOKS (Continued from page 20)

Gretel and Little Red Riding Hood. A couple of years later a second edition was released, this one with illustrations by Ludwig Grimm, and in 1823 a translation was published in English under the title German Popular Stories. Since then hundreds of artists have illustrated the timetested tales - including Rumpelstiltskin and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Then in 1828 a young Dane named Hans Christian Andersen began to write down the stories and poems he made up for the amusement of neighborhood children, and he produced a new “fairy tale” book for his young fans every Christmas.

Lewis Carroll and Edwad Lear created landmarks in nonsense and fantasy, both considered proper fare for Victorian children. Here, for perhaps the first time, were stories written especially for children, devoid of lesson or moral. Delightful and absurd characters cavorted

through the pages purely to give pleasure to young readers.

Several 19th-century English artists had significant impact in the children’s book field. They were Kate Greenaway, Walter Crane and Randolph Caldecott.

Greenaway’s drawings reflected the happy days of childhood, with blossoming trees and primroses dotting the English landscape. Greenaway’s name, like

Caldecott’s, has been given to an award honoring distinguished achievement in the art of illustration. The Kate Greenaway medal is given each year to an outstanding British illustrator of children’s books. Walter Crane illustrated more than forty books.

Collectors sometimes note that his work reflects an appreciation of Japanese color prints.

Caldecott’s first endeavor was the 1878 The History of John Gilpin. His jolly depictions of robust characters have amused generations of book lovers.

At around the turn of the century, books about realistic situations began to appear.

Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn and Kate Douglas Wiggin’s Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm acquainted readers with new locales, and Louisa May Alcott’s stories of family life made readers feel that they knew the March family personally. Johanna Spyri’s Heidi, published in 1880 introduced another very real heroine to youngsters everywhere. A span of years, roughly between

children.” Well known artists including Winslow Homer, Maxfield Parrish and N. C. Wyeth illustrated the works of some of the country’s best writers.

Fortunately, some precious illustrated storybooks have survived the years, the grubby little fingers and the crayon marks, and have found their way into the safety of rare book collections or museums. But what about those of us who can’t spend $1,000 for a first edition of Little Women, or even $200 for a mint copy of Peter Rabbit - but who still want to build a

collection around that nostalgic world of children’s literature?

Some book dealers do a brisk side business in nicely matted illustrations from 19thand 20th-century children’s books. Such illustrations are readily available in what’s known as “reading copies” of old children’s books. These are the dog-eared copies, those which perhaps have worn covers - or sometimes no covers at all.

Maybe some of the illustrations have been torn or spoiled by baby’s crayoned artwork. But still, there are often charming, colorful illustrations intact and ready for matting and framing...a unique touch to the book lover’s décor whether hung

As with any collectible, you can spend a lot or a little in this field. An autographed mint condition copy of L. Frank Baum’s 1900 edition of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz might fetch upwards of $10,000, while a First edition of Tasha Tudor’s lovely 1954 A is For Annabelle is still a bargain at around $50.

framing will cost only a couple of dollars.

This is a wide open field for collectors. Perhaps soon at a show or sale you’ll find that special book or picture or story which holds wonderful childhood memories for you. If you plan to start collecting seriously, remember that condition is paramount. A dust jacket always adds to the value and the condition of the binding is important, too. Be sure that all the pages are intact and that none of the illustrations are missing! You might want to ask your librarian or bookseller for American Picture Books from Noah’s Ark to The Beast Within by Barbara Bader.
