tth2 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Tim, that is one nice book. I nominate you as chairman of the club. Do I hear a second? Second. I can`t be chairman of the club. I`m one of those collectors who actually doesn`t like the cover very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know him personally, but we did meet him at the auction. He actually purchased the 28, 29, & 30. My dad had a short chat w/ him. But I think he was a private collecter and the books will probably not see the light of day for a long time. He also doesn't participate in the Reg. since I still have the books in my inventory. Nice guy, they went to a good home. (thumbs u (thumbs u Andrew The Trifecta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnT Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 I think of the three I might like the cover to issue 30 the best. It's hard for me to get past the emotional attachment I feel for the 28, but if I could I think I'd like the 29 best. Hard to beat a purple background.

(thumbs u Rick Rick, I think it`s a disgrace and an insult to all JLA collectors everywhere that you don`t own a B&B 28. Please sell off your JLA collection immediately.

tth2 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) I hate to say it, but I think your dad's cooler than my dad. Actually, shouldn`t the credit go to Andrew`s grandparents, particularly grandmother, for letting his father spend his money on comics and then not throwing them away like so many other moms did?

tth2 Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 So that`s it, there are only THREE current members of the club, and 2 former members? Maybe I should sell my B&B and get me one of those SC 22s so I can go over to where the cool kids are hanging out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
