Holding a comic and imagining its history.  What route has this taken to get to me?  How many others have enjoyed it before me?  How did it survive the ravages of time when so many other copies didn't?

 Agree 100%

The joy when you add a book or art from your want list.

When you finally fill that gap in a set that took years to build.  Also, when someone finally grades and puts up for sale that one book you wish you had in 9.8.

For those of us that like raw books. Discovering something cool within the pages of an old comic. Like a pedigree mark, an autograph, a cool house Ad or a story you didn’t know about. I still love turning pages…

I still like reading through them, turning the pages and seeing the difference in the time periods. Since I don't have many modern books, I'm often looking at history.

I should add to my earlier post that, along with double covers and errors, discovering signatures and sketches is fun too.
