I work with a guy from over there. He told me that if I were ever driving through and my car broke down, to leave the car and make a mad dash for the wooded areas and try to sneak my way back to the river hiding amongst the foliage. He said whatever you do, don't let anyone see you. :ohnoez:

We have a Brooklyn here on the East Side as well. Federal Marshalls just raided a couple of strip clubs there last Friday for drugs, prostitution, and human trafficking.

To be clear folks, East St. Louis is a separate city from St. Louis. It's across the river in Illinois and, provided you don't get lost, is nowhere near the con. Load in is tomorrow and I can't wait.

I have been busy the last several months buying several small and a couple of large collections. Mostly 60's and 70's with some 40's and 50's sprinkled in. Grades are all over the place.

 

Not very much in ways of Silver age #1's except low grade JLA and Sgt Fury as well as DD 1, Iron Man 1 and Surfer 1. A lot of Bronze #1's and keys with TOD 1, Werewolf 1, Iron Fist 1 & 14, Marvel Premiere 15, Swamp Thing 1, X-men 94, Forever People 1, GL 40, 59, 76 etc.

 

When going through my regular inventory boxes you will see low and high grades mixed in.

 

I have picked up collections from IL, KY, PA and TN in last 6 months. I will have 30 long boxes that have never seen a comic show (by me anyway). I have sold at a couple small mid-west 1 day shows this year but that was to blow out some $1 comics as well as some stale picked over inventory.

 

Some of my best bargains are my $3 and $5 comic boxes which have a lot of 10 & 12 cent comics. I will have 12 new boxes of this type stuff.

 

I will be at booths 521 and 523. Look for the Leroy Harper Comics banner. Troy Neely (local St Louisian) will have part of the end cap with me and will have his own wall display. He usually has a good looking set of wall books.

 

Stop by and say hello.

 

Thanks for reading.

 

Leroy

lol Yes, to be clear St. Louis is not much different than any other city, I agree. Come to the show and have fun! I'm looking forward to it!
