Bronty Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Okay guys... be reasonable. Who the hell is going to invite strangers over to view a multi million dollar collection? As the owner I'd be afraid of people casing the joint. I'd have to know them pretty well and even then I'd have to think about it. hello all... I did say once he got to "know" us....just over a month ago, a bunch of us met over at ciorac's house, and there were millions of dollars of comics in one room, all being shared for each others enjoyment...so, there is a precedent...admittedly, this group of folks have been "brothers" for a long time...but, it is possible ! rick I hear you.... but that's just it, let's warm the poor guy up. This thread is reading like an awkward teenager jumping all over his girl in the first five minutes of the first date Although he seems to like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All pretense of dignity...gone. Let's just roll with it, thank the guy for being a good sport and enjoy what he's so generously dishing up...okay? It's fun.

Shield Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I can't decide if this thread makes me want to collect more GA comics... or just give up and quit altogether. I have all my 40 or so low grade beaters carefully stored in double-bagged mylars, acid free boxes, dehumidified room. And here you are with a lottery winning-sized collection, books in stacks, and unbagged even! You took the words right out of my keyboard. I'll never be satisfied with my piddly little collection, since this is the type of collection I've always daydreamed about having but never had the foreskin to aquire and hold.My collection looks like a small pile of poo now. Another obsession has run it's course. I think I'll start grafting rhodies.Can you imagine what my Black Hand will do the delicate plant tissue? BwaaHaahaahaa! One would think after 4 years on the boards you'd have figured out the quote function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 If he invites me for a visit, I'll help bag and board them...if that's something he thinks should be done. Bag, Board, Grade and do Inventory??? COLLECTION? Isn't this the website for the Model Railroader's Collector's Society for Customized Creations??? Uh Oh... All this time I thought I was chatting with others who shared my passion for hand carving miniature comic books and painting them to order. Boy, am I embarrassed.

The Black Hand ® Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Maybe we should get serious again so he'll post more comics. The doll house thing has my grandaughters excited but it doesn't do the thing for me.My youngest GD enjoys cutting the paper dolls out of my Katy Keene comics.
