Great copies, Jeff.

 

Man, we're seeing some really nice books on this thread these days.

Thanks Shep.

 

I see copies of AAMOW 18 all the time. Seems like one of the more common issues.

 

I can appreciate your comments about a change of focus. When I rediscovered my passion for old comics a couple years ago, I made the decision to collect all the big five titles. Then I realized that there was stuff I didn't really care much about like the dino issues in SSWS, or the later Gunner & Sarge and Hunter's Hellcats stuff in OFF.

So I narrowed my focus down to GI Combat and AAMOW primarily. Then GICs blew up and everybody wanted them and the prices went sky high. sigh!

 

I've pretty much given up on ever owning a minimum fine run of GIC and competition for all war books is pushing prices even higher.

 

Now I'm just buying what I can when I can and not trying to complete runs.

 

Actually now my primary focus has shifted away from war books to Richie Rich. A childhood favorite of mine.

I only need # 8 to complete my 1-10 run. Although, I desperately need an upgrade to 10.

Did you receive your stamp collection from me yet?

Jeff,

 

My other interest outside the war books isn't that far off - I collect the first 25 or so issues of 'Little Archie', the ones with the Bob Bolling art. They're awesome.

 

Talk soon,

Shep

Don't get me started!!! As a teacher, I can assure you that everybody's favorite war profiteer has also made it his goal to disassemble public education bit by bit with that ultra-bogus "No Child Left Behind" BS. Never had anybody so public-school-UNfriendly.

Or maybe you were really meaning to say "War against IL-literacy?" as the comic book says? (ahem. . .we will now return to our regularly scheduled program)
