  11. If you decide to sell, I'll buy it just for the cover. bb I can't sell this comic. When I was a little kid first getting into comics (circa 1969) my father would often tell me about a comic he had as a child (he collected comics during the 40s). He said it was the Golden Age Green Lantern with a swamp-type monster rising out of the swamps. He said it was his favorite comic book as a child. Well, at that time I had no idea about fandom and had no reference books of any kind except Steranko's History Of Comics and Jules Pfeiffe's The Great Comic Book Heroes. So I could only imagine what this comic was. Obviously years later I found out it was All-American Comics #61. And about 10 years ago I'm at a convention and some guy (not a professional dealer, just trying to unload some old comics) has this comic for sell and I'm able to get it for $25 even though it's missing the CF (affecting the Atom & Dr. Mid-Nite stories). Well, I give the All-American Comics #61 to my dad for Father's Day. He was so... I don't have the words... happy and in awe. It was like he was reunited with a treasured memento. The comic itself was in fine condition and the Green Lantern/Solomon Grundy story complete. That was enough for him. It's probably his favorite comic of all time. My dad got me into comics back in the late 60s. Though his collection from the 40s was given away to his cousins back in the 50s when he went into the army, he wanted me to enjoy collecting and reading comics like he did. He's 77 and still reads comics. His favorites being Ed Brubaker's Captain America and Jonah Hex. I have this great picture from Father's Day a couple of years ago my mom took of my dad holding his All-American Comics #61, me next to him holding my Avengers #4, and my son next to me holding his Deadpool #1. 3 generations of comic book collectors! great story! Post the pic of your dad and the AA 61 Please!
