Somewhere between seventeen and fifty.

I believe danchi03 got his bid in under the wire but am waiting on the official time stamps.

I understand. It's not a big deal but I made it a personal project and was disappointed when I couldn't nail it down. I had been hoping to get the town to recognize the houses or at least add the two of them to the list of famous people who lied there. They make a big to do about Will Rodgers livlng there and ignore the creators of Captain America. I moved west about five years ago and no longer have family there. Is there no justice in this world?

Book is slightly miswrapped, but is a strong fine. Photos to follow in a few minutes

The problem is there are six or eight houses that are identical. There is a photo of Jack and your Grandfather in front of his house, and they are pretty much unchanged since then. I'm not sure which book the photo is in, but it might be your fathers.

Ten Minute Warning!

Welcome to the boards. I used to live in Mineola and know your Grandfather and Jack Kirby lived on Brown Street, and from photos managed to narrow it down to about a half dozen houses, but would love to know exactly which houses they lived in. I was able to find Mr Kirby's house when he moved around the corner to East Willston but couldn't square away the description of the house your Grandfather moved to. Is there any chance your father would know the Brown Street address? I'd love to add photos of the house to my collection.

If you lower your expectations enough, and don't look at the slabs very closely, you too may be satisfied.

Would an Omnibus of Fantastic Four 1-30 be a modern book or would it be listed in the SA forum?

The grader notes say it was pressed in 2003? Iv'e never seen anything like that. Something is wrong here.

One and only 24 hour alert. Still plenty of meat on those bones.

Strangest place I've found comics was in a bar in New Orleans. About 1984 or so, I'm in the French Quarter investigating dive bars early one morning when I stumble into one of the more wretched places and the bartender is reading a Strange Tales 101. I assume it is a reprint but he shows me and its not. He says he mentioned to a customer that he liked the X-Men and the guy said he had some old comics that a former roommate had left behind. He shows me the stack and its a bunch of Atlas/Marvel from the ten cent era and a few twelve cent ones. Bartender says he reads new comics and these are boring. He gladly takes $20 for the bunch. Now I'm sitting in a raunchy bar, with a few drunks, with my unbagged trove of comics. I walk about two blocks to a gift shop and ask if I can have a bag, which they happily sold me for a quarter. I take them back to my hotel a few blocks away and spend the morning reading pre-hero Marvel short stories when I was supposed to be hitting the diviest bars in Nawlins. It wasn't a tremendous score at the time, as Strange Tales were a slow mover, and the pre-hero phase was a good decade away. I still have the 101 and I'd call it a weak Very Good, the others are most likely long gone. I fell in love with the 107 cover- Torch vs Namor but that was pretty low grade as I recall.These had been well read before I got them. There was a 111 and a 114, which surprised me as I was not aware of a Captain America appearance before Avengers 4. The one I really wanted - Strange Tales with Fin Fang Foom wasn't there either. Now that I'm thinking about, that $20 might have been put to better use if I'd stuck to my original plan.
