Aside from comic books, I think we should have a community thread of references as to whom here collects comics AND________. It would give us a chance to know a possible buyer, a possible seller, a possible expert for advice. So if you have another passion besides funny books, let's hear it. I'm quite sure there are very interesting collections and most knowledgeable collectors here. Pics are way cool too.

Have a couple, most notably The Who from the 81 Face Dances tour and Black Sabbath H&H tour, but original posters are where it's at for me.

I see them in my travels, I'm scared to death of fakes and my lack of knowing the difference, but I do like them as well.

check past threads, this is a great topic but it has been done many many times

 

Here's one.

Its kind of limited. I know a woman who collects sock monkeys, Board members that collect fountain pens, slot cars and most recently concert posters. I want to know about Worlds Fair collelctions, Peanuts collections, Beatles collections, etc. Who has a Butcher cover. Who has a Rookwood collection. Who's got Stickley under their butt.
