Or do you have all the comics you could ever hope to? hello all...

I love collecting movie posters, but my wife is getting kind of tired of me finding new places to hang them and what I have are pretty obscure.

selegue Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 The best part is that you paid pennies on the dollar for most of your books, a true long term collector. Pennies on today's dollars. Exactly. Somebody out there only paid a dime each for these books. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 In recent years I've been more active in collecting movie posters. I love collecting movie posters, but my wife is getting kind of tired of me finding new places to hang them and what I have are pretty obscure. I saw photos of Bob Lesser's pulp painting collection. He has so many, he has resorted to hanging them on the ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronty Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 yeah, as we've talked about previously 7500 was huge money to be dropping on funnybooks back then. I mean in 1973 the overstreet guide was barely out or known about.... these are the *early* days we're talking about here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shield Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Hey BZ, Top Notch 10 and Zip 6 have really pretty cover when they are fresh. Got any? I have # 9. I have # 11. However, I don't have Top Notch 10. Sorry I take it back - my Top Notch 9 SUCKS compared to this copy. That's it - I'm selling all my books.

Guess you spoke a little too soon when I made my statement about not having anything that compares to a single book that BZ has....seems we are all in his shadow huh?

BangZoom Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 I'm going to post a few more scans throughout the day. Leading Comics #1 Mystic Comics # 1 Mystic Comics # 2 National Comics # 1 National Comics # 7 National Comics # 8 A few of the scans show a vertical line right of center. That's a glitch with the scanner, the line isn't actually on the cover. Is Lou Fine the cover artist for all three of the National Covers?
