Popular Post kav Posted April 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) I was at coffee shop as usual with comics and someone said nice comics then I looked over and it was Chuck Rosanski! He only had a few minutes so I started asking him about the mile high collection he said he originally was considering buying the collection it was mostly mid low grade sci fi and horror stuff so he made offer then they said you'll have to take the rest he said what they opened a locked closet and all he could see was white-5 foot by 3 foot closet stacked with white page books. He also said no the oldest books weren't at the bottom it was all completely random. I had always thought the mile high collection was a basement or shed full of comics but no it was that closet.

He also had a huge wad of cash!! It was weird when I saw him I knew him but it didnt register I thought he was someone I knew locally or something. I know what you mean. He was at the London Comic Fair once. You feel like you know them. I was going to ask him about pence books, as he's an advocate for them. Not sure why I didn't. kav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and this is the guy who made the single largest discovery in the history of comics. Like some Indiana Jones figure. I asked him what did it FEEL like to see all those books what did it smell like etc but time was short and I couldnt grill him like I wanted to. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
