If you had scoured the earth for a decade building this high grade set, finding many copies raw, ebay copies in mixed lots and such, I would be much more excited for you.
That's exactly what she did and has been doing for sometime now. I can attest to that and also sold her one of my highly priced Whitman's. (thumbs u
I'm impressed with the collection and Bonnie's determination to bring it to fruition.
Why doesn't anyone commenting here understand that me not being impressed is my opinion. Period. Mine. It's how I feel. Why try to argue about that?
I find it interesting that the only people on here trying to argue with my opinion , which is pretty crazy in and of itself... are people that sold her books. Imagine that. I guess I wouldn't want to pizz off one of my customers either. touché eh?
Your absolutely entitled to your opinion and not be impressed. However, corresponding with Bonnie for months, I saw how passionate she was to achieve the 'Top Dog' status for Whitman's and I commend that.
Some collectors may want the entire ASM full run 1 -700, hers is Whitman's. Either way it's whatever motivates you as a collector. As a research scientist, if she has the 'dough' to buy these rare collectibles and price is not an issue, more power to her. (thumbs u
I know if it was a rare book I wanted bad enough (MPFW #1), I would do the same.
