Steve Geppi and the Church Collection
0

4 posts in this topic

I was reading an old Gemstone reprint of an EC comic from the mid-1990s and there is an ad in it that says Steve is trying to reassemble Mr Church's collection and was willing to pay premium prices for them.

Does anyone know how successful he was in getting them and does he still large a large segment of them?

He has been buying and selling them for many decades. Back in the 90’s he made a half-hearted attempt. I called up and was offered 2-2.5 times guide for my Action Comics, Batman and Detective Miles Highs. I thanked them and politely hung up the phone. I don’t think it was much of a success as the buying ads only ran for 6-8 months.

He did buy some Mile Highs (I sold him a couple at triple guide).  It's entirely possible it was more of an attempt to stimulate the market than it was about him accumulating thousands of Church copies.  If they were inexpensive, he was a buyer but, otherwise, no.
