Here's a bit more of a background on the Claire Moe books as I now recall:

 

I supposedly was the first to call J&S Comics when I saw their ad in CBG circa 1983. They told me the books came from "his" daughter (I've heard others assume "Claire" is a female), who was handling his estate. I didn't know J&S at the time, and had only limited funds, so I picked out and purchased 10 books... and waited.

 

When I rec'd them, I was floored. Great books, but again cream (or even some interior cover browning) on the inside. The grading and pricing were right on. I hurriedly called J&S back and the books were all gone.

 

Later, I heard of a fellow named Michael Music who was peddling the books for multiples of Guide, which I couldn't afford at the time.

 

I got some books out of that ad also....what were we paying, Steve, $15-20 a book? jon

 

 

 

STEVE Got Larson?

 

I've been lurking on the boards for a while, and this is by far my favorite thread so far. I haven't had the time to go through the entire 8 years of posts, but when I got to page 32 and saw the Claire S. Moe discussion I wanted to chime in.

 

I saw that same ad and bought a stack of Centaurs from J&S as well. I still have them all. I wish I had bought out everything they had, whether I had the issues already or not (maybe by the time I contacted them I got all that was left).

 

I also remember Michael Music very well, at one point I remember going to the home of one of his friends or family members when he was visiting down here (South Florida), to either buy books from him or sell books to him (maybe both).

 

I'm not a completist when it comes to Centaurs, but I've always loved them (since I saw the color picture of AMF V2#7 in my first Overstreet back in 1975), and always bought issues I liked whenever I came across them. I'm of the opinion that you can never have too many (or enough) Centaurs.
