Please don't tell Rick, but I'm just trying to make him feel better. Church is a patron saint of comic book collectors. Ah, I get it. Hey Rick: Those Church books are waaaay overrated. They have a weird smell and the pages are so white you have to wear sunglasses to read them. Who wants to bother with that? I only buy the darn things when they're offered at a steep discount.

sacentaur Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 18 hours ago, Robot Man said: Some people say pine, some people say cedar or even moth balls. I've had mine so long that I think most of the smell is gone. Although Adam Strange was over about a year ago and he said he could smell them. I've never run across a Church that has moth ball odor, those were the Hawkeye books. Cedar or pine is an apt way to describe a Church book. I've had some of my church books for a long time, and I'm very sensitive to their smell. The way I store my raw books, with microchamber paper and absorbing sheets, I've noticed that the distinctive Church smell has - in some cases - greatly dissipated over time. Tracing the provenance of a book through previous owners is always recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same car- different label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
