cheetah Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I want that! I'm not 100% sure I even own it anymore. If I do, I think we could work out a trade or something. I do still need a Jumbo 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd owe you a lot more than a measly little Jumbo 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 If I was made of money, I would love to get a Pogo run together. I can barely afford what I do collect though; so, I guess I will just have covet what you post! If you're not too picky on condition, Pogo and Animal Comics are relatively affordable and easy to find. Mind you, in the case of the early 40's issues "relative" is a key word. But I think Animal Comics in general may have set some sort of record for how LITTLE the price has gone up the past few decades on a 40's book with a big name Artist/ Character combo on it.

People look at you sideways if you collect anything but superhero, sci-fi, and horror titles. I have to admit, I'm not immune to the effects. For example, a month or two ago, the Mile High Church copy of the Little Orphan Annie Feature Book sold in one of the Heritage auctions. It was a gorgeous, early example from that pedigree. Twenty years ago, I might have bid, but I stayed away like everyone else. To make a long story short, it sold for peanuts.

Not exactly peanuts but it did go to a good home where it's history is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely true. There was a time when Kelly, from a collectibility standpoint, was considered near the pinnacle of artists. Over time the number of collectors of Kelly in general, and Pogo in particular, has fallen way off. So the books are available and the prices are definitely negotiable. Now is a great time to be collecting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
