This ad struck me as funny. It's a dual purpose.... 1. looking for collectors to come join together, trade books and hang out and 2. warn the rest of the collecting community to watch out for this one guy and even giving his home address

Haven't cartoons always been violent? Old Bugs Bunny comes to mind

Great stuff Mike, a blast from the past. I wonder how many board members ads you could find?

I may have to pay old Buddy a house call one of these days.

Yea... there's a lot of history in these papers. If I came across an ad I knew was somebody around here I would definitely put it up.... like the Buddy Saunders one. I've seen Moondog ads too. It's great to hear stories from the dealers who know/knew each other in those days. I'm working on a cool Roy Thomas letter right now. It's pretty long and I'm trying to make it readable for any comics history buffs. It's full of..... CONTROVERSY !!

You better hurry. That ad was from 1973

I love it that anybody who wanted to could just motivate and do something for the comics community. It didn't seem to be so much about making money as it was doing something creative that dealt with comics.

 

The fanzine ads are cool. Somewhere out there are copies of these two items.

Here's an ad .... and there's the book. Only $6.50 back then

As I piece together the long letter from Roy Thomas, I can't help but wonder if anyone here knows this Brancatelli guy ....or remembers anything about this

Way cool. That Wrightson cover is just sick.

I've always thought fans were the enemies of the pros

Last post for tonight. Here is the Roy Thomas Open Letter to TBG. He talks about a lot of behind the scenes subjects as well as Kirby. I found it quite entertaining

 

Please excuse the patchwork look of it all and just adjust your eyes without complaint

Next up.... TBG 141. There's a large interview with Alan Light in this issue.... lots of pics too

I was surprised to see how much of his own art Gene had .... and WOW... too bad those prices are 40 years old

Wham-o giant comics. A cool book... but a shipping nightmare.
