" The pain, the pain...."

[the_Greatest]

 

I was going through some old stuff I had saved, and I came across the only two pages I had saved of my old MVS collection. Now mind you I was ten years old when they started in March of 1974 ( December of '73?). Marvel Value Stamps Anyway, I can actually still recall my mother telling me how stupid it was to cut them out of my comics, ( you were right Mom) and I remember to the spot in our house where the conversation happened. So I do a Google on MVS's today, and I find the page that lists which books each stamp appeared in, and I see that two of the stamps I still have today could only possibly have been cut out of Hulk 181 and 182( I didn't own the other books). So if you are one of the people out there holding a MVS 'less copy of one of these books, your debt of gratitude should be directed to....the Greatest.

I just spent a half hours looking at every pag of that site!

amazing! I was reading and collecting back then but just never felt the urge to cut them out. I guess mostly because , as a completist, sinec I was only buying a few Marvels a month I knew Id never get them all!! Lucky me! Except that I had stopped reading Hulk at issue 150!!

It is amazing to me that after 30 years, I can recognize the five to ten that I had never seen before. I am very happy that I have no urge to start the process over again, and I think my ( current ) Hulk 181 just breathed a sigh of relief.
