  1. Another small contribution of recent upgrades and purchases to my collection:
  2. Where did he get that costume, the Pope??? !
  3. At least they drew the black sailor like a real human being. That was very unusual for the time...
  4. BZ, all we can say is WOW! I can probably speak for many in that I have sold so many awesome Golden Age comics over the last 35 years to pay mortgages, dance classes, braces, settle divorces... But you kept them all together! You must have an awesome wife and tell her we love her, too! PLady69
  5. I always hated what they did to the Spectre series at the end of the More Fun run. Percival Popp; what a joke! I wished they would have just cancelled the strip. Sorta of like Streak the Freakin' Wonder Dog in Green Lantern and of course Dolby Dickles. Please!!!!!
  6. Yes, me too! Your books are a treat to behold since most of us will never be able to afford them at today's prices. Glad I kept a few funny books when I started collecting in 1962...
  7. #61 qualified 8.5 (chip replacement on right corner & center right; tear sealing lower staple; light name penciled on fc; creamy pages with tanned edges; flat spine; bright colors) (1st Solomon Grundy)
  8. Thanks gator. It is restored but sold to me as vf/nm and I agree.
  9. Gabby always was an "" and now I know why...!
  10. Wow, you guys sound like children! I was really enjoying this post from BZ and all his awesome books but this snipping is really BS. If you have nothing to add to these boards, why say anything at all? Can't you snipe at each other through PMs? GIVE IT A REST!
  11. My ultimate regret story. When I was living in New Jersey back in the early 70's I used to go the Milltown Flea Market and met a guy that had a bunch of Golden Age books (think he was a dentist and they were his Dad's). Every week I would go back and buy more and ended up with this AWESOME run of Marvel Mystery from around #60-88. I ended up selling them in the pages of TBG (pre-CBG for you youngsters) for $10. apiece! To this day I can't look at a scan of a Marvel Mystery...
  12. Shout out to bcc for a great trade that we worked out. Thanks again dude...
  13. Just wanted to give a shout out to Tommorrow's Treasures and Richard Muchin. Since I found his website via this post, I bought two great Golden Age DC's I've been looking for for years. Great service and packaging. Anyone know if Donald Puff from NY is still around?
  14. Thanks, nice to share these with you'all! I contributed all the Phantom Lady info to the first Overstreet and then Bill Black and I wrote an index in 1978. The book in the one photo is Robert Knigthers(sp) "Writing for the Comic Books". My Phantom Lady #23 is vf/nm bouth from a long-time TBG dealer...
  15. Thanks dude. The All-American #61 is restored, but is a vf/nm otherwise. Matt Nelson also did my More Fun #55 which was a real dog before hand. Here's some more stuff from my collectionfor you GGA collectors: http://home.cfl.rr.com/funnybooks/plady.jpg http://home.cfl.rr.com/funnybooks/bphantom.jpg
