kav Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Never get tired of these posts. It's like I'm browsing thru the collection myself. So much more interesting than just like complete run of spider man. Artboy99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have never read Cannon nearly every page has some nudity on it. Artist too lazy to draw clothing? Artboy99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much more interesting than just like complete run of spider man. I agree, so much weird and unusual stuff and so much fun to wander through. I understand selling and breaking this collection up is part of the circle of collecting life but I do feel a little sad that this collection is being broken up. There was something so special about opening a box and flipping through the collected contents and just getting a feel of what the collector was into and the amount of effort he expended to research, find, purchase, catalog and maintain this collection. There will never be a collection quite like this again. kav, F For Fake and Artboy99 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well at least you guys managed to save and share this stuff with us here and to buyers in person....it's possible a lot of it could have ended up at the dump....

kav Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) All items should be sold with a card indicating the pedigree it came from for future historians! Edited July 8, 2019 by kav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To late for that . That does bring up the question of would the previous owner be upset if we associated his name with all these items as we pass them on and for the items that include the original mailing envelopes with his name on them - quite a few - should we include the envelopes with his name and address when we sell them. In general if the envelopes were interesting we did include them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general if the envelopes were interesting we did include them. I have been thinking of that as well. I absolutely love that the original mailing envelopes are there, but does the buyer actually care?. The other issue is it opens the door to damage in trying to remove the mailing labels: ripping the envelope instead of simply removing. The time it takes to pick at it to remove, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F For Fake Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 This was one of my favorite collection threads on the boards ever, it was the sort of weird comics ephemera stuff that I find so cool. It's comics, but not comics, you know? I'm glad to have gotten the Bettie Pages issues. If you issue a pedigree, I want a certificate!

Many of the items landed in our personal collections. unfortunately no certificates as It can't be a pedigree, the person we bought this from purchased most of the collection second hand off of someone else. He did attend many conventions though. Edited July 9, 2019 by Artboy99 F For Fake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT...still. Just scribble up a note and make some copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's just his name and his address and he moved after selling us the collection. Some of the envelopes had kirby or steranko art and we just couldn't toss them away.
