I love things from before my time Michael!! Even things from when I was only a year old, like this 1966 Gibson Melody Maker that I recently picked up!! Please forgive my posting it .... it's mostly for Ricky and Cat
  4. Bob, Jim Elsenpeter here, Hey I was wondering at what point Bob Selvig came into the picture with the Reilly books. I was able to purchase a few books (not Reilly copies), from him a year or two ago at a show (yeah, he still sets up sometimes!). I've heard it said that he doesn't like to discuss that collection, so I didn't engage it with him, but he certainly brought many Reilly copies to the Twin Cities area and some are still here to this day. For whatever reason. I have it in my head that he was involved with a third of the books with a few other partners, is that the case? Additionally, did you or anyone else get any pictures of the collection back when you bought it? I've not seen anyone ask about this, so I figure it's worth asking about. I'm not asking to see proof of anything, just that it would be cool to see photos of stacks of old high grade funnybooks!!! Finally, while I understand that the books are said to have never been in San Francisco, that's the name this beautiful collection has been associated with for decades and I'm pretty sure that the name is gonna stick. You might be happy to know that many of us refer to them as "Reilly copies" as well. Conclusively, while many seem to be content to make fun at your expense, there are many of us that appreciate any bits of helpful knowledge that you can give and at the very least, thank you for your honest efforts. I also would like to add my best wishes for your daughters recovery!! Those of us who have children have our hearts go out to you and any other parents dealing with the illness of their children. God Bless.
