And now Lois from the drugstore (thank God I'm almost done). I'll start with the Nov issue from 1966 because I can't remember if I posted it last year or not...plus, it's some kind of special issue that people want for some reason... (shrug)

And the last issue of 1967, the end of Superman...yes, Supes quit...and that is why there were no issues in 1968... :whistle:

Sweet copy after sweet copy. :applause:

 

How did you store them 50 years ago to look so fresh today? Closet?

 

I stored them in plastic bags...with no boards (nobody had heard of boards back then) in a big metal cabinet that locked. Pre-1966 comics were stored in nice plastic produce bags from Safeway (5 books to a bag). After 1966 I used comic bags. I wasn't as careful with a lot of them as i was with the Actions...I don't know why...except that we weren't as concerned with condition in those days...

 

Also, I lived in coastal CA where the average temp. was 65 degrees...and rarely ever got above 80 degrees. We didn't even have air conditioning...

 

I still use that cabinet for some of my cheaper books...

I don't have any books anymore from '67... :cry:

 

 

No Amazing 50??? :popcorn:

 

Hey Frankie :hi: ...sold the remaining above 20 to pay for my 2 and 3 in 9.0...such is life and collecting...the last of the ASM that were pried from my hands were about in the following order...75...21-30...31/32/33...39/40 and 50...I miss 'em but I'm happy with my decision...while the 28 and 50 were the most valuable, I miss the 31-33 most. I might add those back some day...

 

Cheers.
