Yes, great to hear. Hopefully the authorities are still able to track down the thief.

Awesome. Just from reading the story I can tell the shop owner that recovered the books is likely Pat. His go to move was always to take the books into the back room to 'grade' or 'get money' or whatever, and notify the thief once the books were locked up that the books were stolen and being held.

Good to know the books are found

Man these thief's must have been really hard up for some more crack money because how stupid can you be to walk into a local comic store to try and hock these.

Just goes to show that Vancouverites not too smart, as the FF #1 and other loot would not have been recognized in the Seattle, WA area as I doubt the news coverage made it across the USA border.

Fixed that. Vancouverites are pretty alright people, but there are far worse places to be than there. Trust me

I haven't been to Golden Age in years (I rarely go downtown), but just to give other boardies an idea of how long the store has been there, I remember going in and buying this treasury while waiting in the lineup outside the Capitol 6 movie theater to see Superman 2 in 1980!
