Hey, you gotta show the backs with the stamp and arrival date or it’s no fun...

Supposedly, the OA owner of this collection was a hoarder. Story was that the purchaser of the collection went over to purchase it and and had to step over the taped off sillouette of the owner's dead body on the floor. Don't know if this is "folklore" or not, but sure makes for a good story...

Isn't Joe Rainone ("Storypapers"? - bought the collection with Phil Weiss) a board member here?

I know there were Horatio Alger collectors/historians in the house cataloging material, before Joe and Phil saw/bought the comics.

Stanley Pachon (original Bethlehem owner) was a big Alger collector/historian also.

Picked this one up a few years ago from Sparkle City on the bay. I got it for opening bid...

Check out the upside down signature store stamp for this collection. The clerk, or whomever, must have been in a rush that day.
