Robot Man Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 That would be fun. Brian, don't forget your Overstreet... Bill, we can talk "Paul" books. Hey you both live in AZ. Maybe you can carpool if you can fit tricolor in your car... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 I'm tired of doing comic books so I thought I'd feature just some of my Tom Corbett Space Cadet stuff. Hope you enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 All wonderful stuff. That membership card art is similar to the cover to Four Color # 400 - http://www.comics.org/issue/9534/cover/4/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sqeggs Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 You have so much great stuff. How on earth do you find room for it all? My wife would shoot me if I tried to store one-tenth as much in our house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 I've got "a room". The room also has whole wall closet that is 12 foot high inside. In the room are several display cases and a high ceiling. I also have a couple display cases in our den and living room. My wife doesn't go in "the room" much so it is fair game. The rest of the house has a little bit in each room "tastefully" displayed. I rotate stuff around when the mood hits. My wife also has a "room" and is an antique dealer so her stuff gets spread out a little as well. Difference is that she is a dealer and EVERYTHING can be for sale. You know, I think I have a lot of stuff until I see other people's collections that take over their whole house. I probably have more GA and SA comics than anything else. That takes up a lot of space for magazine boxes in the closet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffman_Comics Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Quick question RM. Do you prefer the "Membership Card" type paraphernalia "pristine" or signed in a child-like scrawl? Me? If it is part of a membership "kit" then I'd prefer everything (including the mailer) as minty as possible. If it's a stand alone flea market type offering, I actually like the "provenance" that the signature of, say, a Junior Justice Society member adds. That's just me though. Your thoughts?

Robot Man Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 I usually prefer as mint and un-signed as possible. But, with stuff like this, it's so hard to find in some cases that you take what you are lucky enough to find. Usually membership kits have the kid's name and address on them though. I once found an Orphan Annie "secret compartment" decoder badge with a little girl's hand written message in it. I pulled it out, read it, smiled and put it right back as it should have been.

Yellow Kid Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 He's back! Another look at the incredible Robot Man collection. Great stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Speaking of space stuff. Here are a few scarce British pinbacks. I'm sure some of our boardies from across the "pond" will be familiar with. I have heard of Capt. Scarlet and Dan Dare but don't know too much about the Red Ray.

howlingdog Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Love your stuff, there is a Dinky car version of the Capt. Scarlett Spectrum Patrol Car shown on the button, just sold one last week in my booth a the local antique maket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Man Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share Posted January 18, 2016 "They came in through the bedroom window". When going through the boxes I noticied quite a few of these type covers. I know I probably have more but figured you guys can add to these if you've got them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
