In 1981 I used to walk to the local collector shop that sold back issues. They got this paper every week and after they read it would sell it to me for a dime. I wish I would have kept all of them.

 

I have been trying to get these again and have a small stack already. it is great to read through the articles and see how much people were selling their comics for back then.

 

Here is the oldest one that I have.

It may be irrational, but I've always HATED Howard the Duck. It was the first book I can remember thinking did not stand on its own merits, but had the media hype machine working at trying to convince people it was something great :facepalm:

Back in the '70's everybody who wanted to contributed to the hobby. It might cost you 50 cents to find out what they contributed but people contributed

I can see kids asking their parents to take them to the "comic show" and the parents saying.... "Ok.... I'll take you if you get a haircut"

 

Two birds..... one stone :idea:
