that would be very nice of you,i will hopefully have them scanned,i fear doing them hear as a computer scanner will just abuse such old paper.

You never know what and where you will find stuff. Guy around the block was cleaning everything out and had a garage sale. I stopped the car as I saw a box of comics and knew that at one point he had kids that were older than I. I found a few issues for $1 each that were worth some bank but I saw laying out there a first edition copy of Hemmingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls. I also picked that up for $1.
This guy is offering a first edition for $5000

well it is my favorite book of all time, and i read it at least twice a year,so it has always been a dream, if was a millionaire,i would have every edition of it ever printed.
as for comics,i was never a fan ,other than dick tracy, which i have some of them,mainly though just original chicago tribune editions that they were printed in.
