That is the kind of collection all of us wish we found. Many years ago, I got an original owner collection similar to this but the condition wasn’t as nice as yours. I just remember going through many cardboard boxes of just mind blowing Atomic Age books. Love to hear your story... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love to hear your story... For @Robot Man This collection came to me from an out of state ad I answered for "vintage comics'. A woman was cleaning out her freind's house, an older gentleman, who had passed and it took her a year, a box at a time for her to send me everything.

Popular Post gino2paulus2 Posted March 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2018 Well I stated in my goals for 2018 thread I wanted to finally pick up a pedigree book. There is something alluring about them and I have continued my research a bit as I wanted more knowledge before diving into them (although I can basically find out everything I need know by following @Straw-Man posts!!) I am not a rich man. I do pretty well for my age imo so I can’t just go buying up any books I see and want there is a method to my madness. I am at heart a lower grade collector and I honestly think I will always be but the stories and the history of the pedigrees excites me as well. So here we go I am sticking my toes in the water with this one thanks to a fellow Boardie...my FIRST pedigree a Davis Crippen D copy with the “D” front and center. Everyone that knows me by now knows I love my Red,White, and Blue heroes so that was a must as well. Here we go!! Star Spangled Comics #5 from 2/42!!
