Robot Man Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Here is one of your dad's former books. I like that it had his name and address filed in on a coupon on back cover. mem72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you got one of your dad's books, that's so cool. Have you seen what he wrote on the back of the book above? I will find the scan I made. It's some weird little poem about someone that was in class with him. I will dig it up. Edited April 28, 2017 by october exitmusicblue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I smile every time I look at it. This is an all-win thread. Thanks for sharing this and coming to the boards. I am happy you were able to get the book and connection to your father. kelholt, comicnoir and mem72 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mem72 Posted May 1, 2017 Author Share Posted May 1, 2017 It's like getting to see an old scrap book/photo album of his! Love getting to see all of these different scans. Friday was such an awesome day to rediscover that part of my dad's life. Thanks ! comicnoir, porcupine48 and exitmusicblue 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What your father got instead was immortality in this hobby. That rarely happens. +1 Yes indeed, as your father's name will continue to live on in comic book history long after all of us have gone to the big LCS in the sky. +1 Edited May 11, 2017 by Gotham Kid mem72 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
