It's a lovely interview with Alex Schomburg's granddaughters who were babysat by Alex growing up. I have Keston's channel on "notify" and watched this the other day - it's a "must watch" for any Schomburg or "comic history" fan. It gives life to Schomburg beyond "man, what a great comic book artist". He was a lot more than that based upon what the ladies said. I think somebody also posted this in the Schomburg thread a day or two ago. I hope he does more interviews like this in the future. comicjack, Wazdakka and Mmehdy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat-Man_America Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Another in the series of GA Comic Book Tropes; these are flat-out hilarious! I've already linked one of his earlier YouTube videos in the unpopular heroes thread, but since The Black Condor was masterfully drawn by Lou Fine ...even if the characters origin is for the birds... this seems the more apt thread for posting. sagii and Mmehdy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telegan Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Swag interviews a comic presser/restorer and they talk about the industry, how he does his job, blue labels vs. purple labels with regard to the restoration industry, the recent "reholder scam" that's been in the news, etc. Professor K and Mmehdy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I met him was at the first Collector's Summit in Dallas. He set his display up on one of the center tables and one of the items was a More Fun 74 that was incredibly and unnaturally white. Understand that this was a meeting of high-end, established collectors and dealers, all of whom at that time probably had more experience handling books than he did. So I may have been out of line when I picked up the More Fun to examine it more closely, but I was really amused when he said "THAT’S AN EXPENSIVE GOLDEN AGE COMIC. DON'T TOUCH IT!"

Sounds like he may have turned that More Fun into less fun. The irony. badback83 and MrBedrock 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one about Bry being like Comic Tom but without the cat or followers made me hit pause while I recovered. I thought for sure he'd say Regie sounded like a bald, black Casey Casem impersonator. Glad he tagged Comic Collector Geek, Automatic Comics, and Swagglehaus as they're 3 of my favorites. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceguy Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Here is an old guy's first attempt at a youtube comic book unboxing. These old books will be for sale or auction. I haven't decided where yet. If anyone knows of a more appropriate thread that this should be on, please move if you know how or ask me and I will figure it out. Thanks for looking. Please note error in my description of Pedigree book - it was sold to me by Ed Jaster as a Mile High but I just noticed that when it was graded it was labeled as an Ohio Please remember to click like.
