    Many of the younger fellows won't know who Frank Frazetta is, but there was a time when many of his comics sold for more than AF 15 and FF 1 …… GOD BLESS...

    Gorsh, that Buster is high on my want list. Very Nice.

  2. My first  Superhero book was purchased by my mom at Piggly Wiggly, TOS 98. Most of my purchases were off the rack. The 70s were a great time for collecting. I bought many a slurpy Marvel cup.  Then walked across the street to Highland Pharmacy, the only place in the neighborhood that carried Marvel Mags. My favorite was Monsters Unleashed. A used book store called Books Unlimited opened up close to My Grandmas House. This is where I bought my first Back Issue X men 35 for a whopping $3.00 I will regal more about these good times and stories of my hard core obsession and making a living selling comics starting in 1984 till this day, at a later time.

  3. I was a casual collector 60s and 70s mostly off the rack. By the 80s I had amassed a modest amount of a couple thousand. I lived in the poor part of San Antonio and believe it or not SA was a bass awkward City. About 10 years behind the times. I was lucky if store would have one small spinner rack. I remember one time we went to visit family in Dallas in the early 70s Went to a grocery Store and it had 3 full spinner Racks. Had 5 bucks for the whole trip. Under my Dads Protest I spent the whole fiver. I read everything back then, but it seems to me Harvey was my favorite.
