I only found out about these on Saturday when a store owner asked if I was interested in them and I told him that I didn't care about this two page preview that was oversized and not gradeable and had no clue what it was. Apparently, he gave away 3 to one of his workers and another two to a customer. I'm gonna to get one for free from the worker who got three. The owner has 13 left but hasn't advertised it and I doubt any other store has it. He definitely didn't get the full 25 and he doesn't remember ordering it.

@GACollectiblesYou still failed on the boards so @Ryan.is the current superior seller.

Like one of the posters stated above, pretty well any of the nice ones have remained with Pat for all these years. He stated to me that he wants to keep it for his two sons whatever that means. I figure it means that it'll get sold eventually at a much later date. I haven't seen any of the Golden Age issues in person but he did show some of the scans of the nicer books to me in the past. He did show me the actual graded movie related Dells from the 60s that the portion that the daughter collected. They were nice grades but the demand may not be there for most of those books. He did indicate that that portion of the collection was available for sale at the right price but I don't think that he's actively pursued selling any of them. An interesting tidbit is that when he first found the collection, he brought a few down to SDCC and showed Steve Borock and Mark Haspel and they wanted him to grade the collection with the then fledgeling CGC and they wanted to pedigree it at that time. He said that he didn't feel like they qualify as a true pedigree so he declined at that time. I know most of those books pictured in the articles were previously graded for years so they weren't recent gradings. @lou_finewould probably be the person with the most access to these books in the past so he can shed more light into the collection.

That's his cousin's store.

I can understand why some US clients may be wary as they normally get it sent back via USPS registered so it may cost more if it's insured for more but it you're using other return methods, why not?
