MARVEL TREASURY EDITIONS SELECTED COVER GALLERY...

Copyright MARVEL COMICS

I bought at least the first dozen of these titles as they came out, but I didn't always keep the previous one(s) until the next one, so I have only three actual issues of my original MARVEL TREASURY EDITIONs from the time of purchase back in the '70s.  However, I replaced some of them later, probably around 30-35 years ago, and others maybe around ten years after that.  One I got only recently (2001:  A SPACE ODYSSEY), and I'm currently waiting for #4, CONAN THE BARBARIAN, arriving anytime soon.  Then I'll get #5 (HULK), #6 (Dr. STRANGE), #7 (The AVENGERS), #9 (GIANT SUPERHERO TEAM-UP), and #10 (THOR), which will give me the first 12 numbered issues again.  (Incidentally, the friend I gave my original copy of #9 to (many, many years ago), says that he should still have it somewhere and that I can have it back if he ever finds it.)  

There were also one-shots, like the first GIANT SUPERHERO HOLIDAY GRAB-BAG (1974), which was labeled as a Marvel Treasury SPECIAL rather than an 'Edition', as was the Space Odyssey and CAPTAIN AMERICA BICENTENNIAL BATTLES issues.  I probably also bought an occasional later TE if the contents appealed to me , but the first 12 will suffice to complete my collection.  Truth to tell, I don't even need them as I already have the stories in other reprint collections, but I get a feeling of immense satisfaction from plugging the gaps.

One thing about the Treasury Editions that irked me was that the pages were resized and, sometimes, even abridged by having pages edited out. (FF #4 in TE #2 is one such example).  Although larger than a standard comicbook, the TEs weren't of the same proportions, so in order to fit the different dimensions, tiers of panels were cropped in places so that there wasn't too large a margin around the top, bottom, or sides.  Exactly like what was done in early issues of The MIGHTY WORLD Of MARVEL and SPIDER-MAN COMICS WEEKLY UK periodicals.

I'll update this post as I re-acquire the missing editions, but in the meantime, feel free to share your memories (if any) of these over-sized publications with your fellow Criv-ites.  Did you like them, or did you prefer the regular monthly isues?  'Fess up now, while I start scanning my DC COMICS equivalents - coming soon in an upcoming post.    

The MTEs were revived a couple of years back, so here are the front and back covers from a couple of them just in case you missed them at the time.
