gunsmokin Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Any one out there on the boards know whatever became of board member Bang Zoom and his jaw dropping collection that he shared here? I'm not in the golden age boards consistently so if this is already common knowledge, my apologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got some of the photos from his original thread on my desk top at home. I can post them up here later. I've never ever seen anything like that.

adamstrange Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Bangzoom suffered a stroke which requires a lengthy recovery. His wife has posted once or twice as, I think, has he since the incident. Larryw7 and Tri-Color Brian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 He is on facebook. He asked me to be his friend but I don't do Facebook or Twitter. Sounds like the boards burnt him out a bit when he recovered from his stroke. Too bad, real good guy with as well all know an amazing collection.

I don't do Facebook or Twitter so I had to turn down his request to be his "friend". I would say that would be a good place to start searching though.

Popular Post telerites Posted December 22, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2018 Outside of some of the boardie get-togethers of some of our heavy hitters and seeing their books, this group shot and so many others of Bang's is so awesome and makes me feel so inadequate.

marmat Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 He posted also a Detective Comics goup shot, with 27 clearly visible, and a stunning Timely group shot. I remember a Superman 2 that looked like it was printed yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo_7071 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Bang Zoom's photos of raw books are a reminder to me to always take "single highest graded," "second highest graded," etc. with a grain of salt. If I had his collection, I'd throw mine away. Randall Ries 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
