Yellow Kid Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 When I sold Leonard Brown's comics for him several years ago, which included the WDC+S #1 that Heritage sold recently, he had a beautiful run of Uncle Scrooge #1-10. However, he said he had never found a perfect #6, and he considered that the hardest book in the run to find in top condition. One of the reasons is that it always appeared that the cover was cut slightly larger than the interior, thus making the edges easily damaged. Later I will post a picture of his WDC+S #1-3 in a small group, that would sell today for more than his entire collection sold for when I sold it to Bill and his friends. I can't tell you how badly I wanted to keep those three books. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I Love Duck Keys, since no one cares, they are still cheap. If these were marvels can you imagine the premium the 1st Gyro Gearloose, Gladstone Gander & Beagle boys would bring? 2 of the 3 eventually had their own titles and appeared on Ducktales TV cartoon.

tb Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 You have excellent taste, Mr. Bones. It's funny how I still remember the first time I read books like "Sheriff of Bullet Valley" over 30 years ago. It'll be fun to see if you'll find some inspiration for your paintings.

shiverbones Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks! I absolutely get inspiration from them. I am working on some larger "secret" projects, that with any luck will come to successful fruition, and I think the influence will be even more obvious in that work.
