golden43tiger 238 posts Posted December 10, 2018 Hello everyone cool post not sure if there buyers for such as this or collectors. But I did run into a bunch (200plus I think give or take). Of this " fanzine" type of stuff.. From mags. To newspapers to comics . Here is a sample . I liked it because it says neal Adam's on cover of this one. So i figured this must be early says of neal. " champion 5" Its called. If anyone wouldn't mind helping me figure out the rest of them would be great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If anyone wouldn't mind helping me figure out the rest of them would be great! I'm hardly an expert but I'll do my best. Fanzines are collectible but I believe the number of guys currently chasing this stuff is low. They do sell on ebay in the 'collectibles' 'comics' 'fan clubs and zines' section. There's currently a Disneydom #1 in the disney section of ebay, asking price $79 but I'm not sure if that price is reasonable. Here's a search of the fan clubs fanzine section of ebay with a blank search box, sorted highest price to lowest to give you an idea of what's valuable. https://www.ebay.com/b/Collectible-Comics-Fan-Clubs-Zines/3966/bn_2311667?rt=nc&_from=R40&_nkw=&LH_TitleDesc=0&_sop=16&_osacat=3966&_odkw=jerry+bails&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC4.A0.H0.X.TRS5 Generally the older they are the better - historic and rare, fanzines by relatively famous comic fans like Jerry Bails typically sell for more https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=jerry+bails&_sacat=3966&LH_TitleDesc=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1&_sop=16 early issues of long running fanzines do better, and fanzines with better content or interesting art do better. I do take boxes of these to shows and have had okay results. If a Conan collector finds a fanzine in my boxes with a Conan illustration he's never seen he'll buy it. If a Jack Kirby collector finds a fanzine in my boxes with an article about Kirby or a Kirby image he'll probably buy it. 1 Senormac reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
