What
I'm offering is
a mixture of duplicates
and my one of a kind high grade personal collection of comics & art
and other items.
Hope you find something you are looking for.
This material cannot be found in just any grocery store you know.
Comics make great reference material & teach business, art and writing
skills. Plus they entertain the eye and mind.
I've been selling, promoting & accurately grading comics for
41 years.
(In fact as a kid my first "real" job was probably working for
Collector's Bookstore in Hollywood.)
I owned my first comic & bookstore in 1978 in Ocean Park, CA ("Beyond
Illusion").
I
owned the super ultra cosmic magical comic shop:
Ninth
Nebula from 1986 to 1996.

200 autograph parties with comic & SF professionals (artists and writers, including several with Jack
Kirby, Stan Lee, Dave Stevens, Paul Smith, George Clayton Johnson, Harlan Ellison, Steve Gerber, Marty
Pascoe,
Sergio Aragones and others (Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle, Steve Barnes). I had two interviews published
in Comics Journal (one with Roy Thomas and one with Gerry Conway). Mailed
CJ my Barry Windsor
Smith interview tapes but never saw that interview appear. Though my
Gerry Conway interview was recently reprinted by the Journal.
I managed of
a chain of comic stores, owned two stores (at different times) and threw a
comic book convention.
My collection of old comics appeared on the
front page of Burbank Daily Leader Newspaper along with my article on comics in 1985. My advertisements appeared in RBCC
and Comic Buyer's Guide when they began.
I threw 19 comic cons. I am a private party off loading my old store stock & personal
collection. (I sell comics, original comic art (I want to share my abundance of
