Scrooge Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 This is only going to appeal to the Burroughs fans. I still miss hearing more from BZ. Here's hoping you're getting better and better with the passing day. I bumped this b/c of the other Tarzan threads going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaillant Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Let’s hope BZ is doing well. I have also to say these E.R. Burroughs books and the pulps look wonderful even to "non fans"… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robot Man Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 A well-deserved bump to this thread after more than a month, as we are all missing the fantastic postings from BZ.

Robot Man Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Here's a few earlier Detective Comics Hope to see them all graded one day soon. I don't. What is amazing about this collection is how well they look just sitting in stacks in those funky cleaners bags. We all know they are exceptional basically original owner copies. You just don't see that anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know they are exceptional basically original owner copies. You just don't see that anymore. Well said. Agreed. Slabbing them all would just be a prelude to selling and dispersing them. At that point, the magic that is BangZoom's collection would be gone and forgotten. I hope it stays just the way it is for many more years.

I wish I had heeded Stephen Fishler's advice in 1986 and kept the Windy City collection intact. I had to sell to recoup my nearly $100K I spent on it as I was growing my business, but today that collection should be in a museum for all to enjoy.

Flex Mentallo Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 What criteria need to be satisfied to make a thread a sticky topic? Does anyone agree with me that if any topic deserves to join those heading up the forum, it is this one? It seems to me that it is the very epitome of what the Gold Forum is about, and I'd be surprised if anyone disagreed. There are also more posts in this thread than all but two others, and it's one of only four with the flame denoting over 1 million posts. We haven't seen a post from BZ himself since March 2016, and I know we all think of him. Anyone care to weigh in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
