The Don Vernon Collection.

Are you sure it's actually Air Pirates?

I'm not sure if this link will work right but it looks like it's a big collection that's been made public: http://comics.ha.com/?type=-HERITAGECOMICAUCTIONS.COM

Yep, nothing to do with Air Pirates other than the image used was the image the Air Pirates swiped for the cover of Air Pirates #1. Here's the item offered in the Heritage auction:

OK, wasn't aware that the Air Pirates #1 was a swipe of an actual Mickey Mouse cover, thanks.

Isn't it from a big-little book called "The Mail Pilot" 1933 or 1935?  I forget which.

correct, the auction description says the BLB was from 1933.
