BangZoom Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 You are killing me BZ. Can't I least buy THAT one from you? Won't you feel better knowing you have made a poor old comic geek like me happy? Bill, if I were selling, I'd definitely give you first crack at it. (thumbs u Sadly......."if" is the middle word in life...... Actually, "crack" may be the most significant word in BZ's reply. Jack poorer and older comic geek What I intended to say is that I'd offer the comic to Bill at a deep discount to market value. He'd probably swoon.

Comicdey Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Bill's collection alone is something to swoon about......you guys always pull amazing books out of cubbies in your homes. Thanks for sharing .........again. Can I get on the list for swooning on certain books I've been looking for over the last 25 years. I'll even make you a list when you decide to sell a few book.

BangZoom Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 When I'm not posting here, I spend my days working under my real name, Pen Miller, drawing my world famous comic strip and, of course, fighting crime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I haven't read the story yet but the art seems better than the average Nordling art. Here's one artist that, no matter how much of his output I see, doesn't grow on me with age. What's the name of the ugly feature he drew of two buddy sailors in Crack or Smash?

BB-Gun Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I found about a year's worth of Mickey Mouse strips from 1943 in an old scrap book. Even the mouse was brought into the war against the Nazis. Interesting to see I think. Black Pete was also on the other side. I knew he was a bad guy.

BB-Gun Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Frazetta covers are always nice to find on ERB books. The little paper back covers look pretty good when enlarged slightly. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you won't be competing against me if any of Nordling's "The Barker" artwork comes on the market. See my wantlist below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come I don't find scrapbooks like that when I go to flea markets? Maybe this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 BZ, I didn't always find comics at flea markets but I usually found something that interested me. Puzzles, games, books, BLB, rings... And if you ask about badges, my answer is "We don' need no stinkin' badges!" But ROA secret decoder badges are my favorites. It is really hard not to diversify if you go to flea markets every weekend. And fun to learn new things. BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 But ROA secret decoder badges are my favorites. BB, I love everything you posted. I collect a lot of that stuff, too. For those who may be wondering, ROA stood for Radio Orphan Annie (I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
