  2. why thank you bill (thumbs u I'm going to "ask bill" in "ask gator's" thread ... Bill, other than the Action 1-10 run from the ole lady around the corner, did any other major books walk in through your doors at More Fun? I love that story.
  3. Must be a thrill to find ones you forgot about for so long.Great stuff as always sir!
  4. I remember seeing a can of soda dropped on a pile of books at a con. I believe most were sa keys your all star 3 incident still makes me cringe The worst thing I ever saw was at a Philly con in the 80s. Jay Maybruck was particularly sniffly that day (which seemed odd to me as a teenager who was watching Miami Vice) and in an angry mood. He bumped into his wall of books and most of them came tumbling down. I remember not feeling very sorry for him but expecting a huge explosion of anger. He was pretty mad. When Greg Buls first put the Circle 8 collection out for sale at a San Diego show in the early '90s I pulled an entire long box of DCs, Quality and Archie comics. Beautiful runs of mid to late '50s of titles like Plastic Man, Black Hawk, House of Mystery and Archie. He had just purchased the collection and most of the books had not been bagged yet, much less priced. He priced the books that night and the next morning they were ready for me. The total was north of $10K, which was fair for over two hundred beautiful pedigree condition comics. But as he was getting ready for the day he accidentally dumped a whole Big Gulp size drink off of the edge of his table into the box! Almost all of the comics were soaked. We were able to salvage about fifteen books. It was a huge bummer all around. Well at least it was the DC's that were ruined. This story makes me cry. When Greg walked over and told me the news he was stunned and ashen. I think he cried later. Don't blame him. I think I'm going to cry...
