I'm not one (yet, and who knows maybe never will be), but I think of these in terms of being a grandfather and having an accessible library for grandchildren. I don't see them as a "collectible" in that scenario, as their condition is likely to deteriorate considerably over time. Lots of, I'm sure, "traditional" but currently inappropriate/frowned upon viewpoints in these wonderful books. MrBedrock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell now for about the same price now as they sold for in the 1980s! aardvark88 and Ghastly542454 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattTheDuck Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I hope that's not supposed to be a cautionary tale to those who have actual comic collections they hope will be valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like pulps I expect a resurgence some day and the high grade are truly rare…looking forward to reading the Brer Rabbit I grabbed … from song of the south motion picture. Isn’t this for the burn piles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
