What do you mean by We?

Subtle cover, ain't it!

When sales slump, put a gorilla on the cover. Works every time. Jules S.

I had this book for 3 years. It's time to set it, as Spike Mulligan would say, "free, free, FREE!"

Very cool book. Let's see more insides.

Thank you Berni for what you meant to me. We will always have Swamp Thing and Frankenstein. And you started, like all of us, as a fan of comic books. Amazing! You were kind to me the times we talked at Apple Comics and San Diego. I'll always be a fan of your art.

A bit of history. I found this very issue on Ebay at auction and won it for 500. Sent it in for slabbing and it came back and a 7.5 Okajima pedigree. I was totally thrilled. Years later I put it up on, I think, HA. Great book and I hope it finds a nice home.

Berni, My thoughts are with you and your family.

He had those stairs custom made especially for these collection shots.

Same printer pull ding at the top. Action 63 brothers.

Action 6, 5.0 Ow/w and Action 24, 9.0 Rockford Ow. I'm totally jazzed. If I open the Rockford I'll show you the insides. First Jimmy Olsen and first mention of the Daily Planet in a comic book. Woof!

January 1940

I'll put up a Frazetta sales thingie in Mixed sales, maybe next week. Fritz rules.

Making it SlingShot Those are my recommendations.

Sweet book. A round of Punjabs to you.

It's nice to have a big book.

Great story. I would have robbed my babysitter to work up the scratch for a Action 1.

I was never a concert guy but was lucky enough to have gone to high school and college with one of Bruce Springsteen's cousin during the late seventies and early eighties when Bruce had hit it big. Bruce was from my hometown, Freehold, NJ and I remember him and his buddies playing for our grammar school class and then he really took off with the E Street band when I started high school. Anyway, my buddy got Bruce to send him tickets to a concert at Madison Square Garden with some manner of back stage pass. We had great seats on the floor and he played for four hours! It was an amazing show. The back stage passes basically got us into some kind of bar in the Garden where beers were $4-5 each which was way more than our college budgets could handle; so we split for some other place. I'm still friends with his cousin but we don't seem to go to concerts anymore although we still enjoy tilting back a beer and telling tales of our college days when we see each other. Great story.
