1st Prize!

[Brother J]

Well if you can make me a list of your doubles I would consdier buying some of it, providing I need it and the price is right.

I don't think you will get much selling stuff at a show, but you never know.

Jason

Yeah, I don't think anyone does too well selling to dealers at shows, but I think I recall hearing OldMilwaukee (Justin) saying he brought stuff to shows to trade and he was happy with what he got.

As for what I'll be bringing, it's likely you already have it, it will only be stuff that I have duplicates of, like the stuff I mentioned in the above post.

I think you may fair better off in trade but who knows. Good luck either way!

I like to buy rare books. Not $5 or $10 Last gasp, Print Mint, Rip Off, etc. I do trade for  books that I can get $50 or more for, especially if you are looking for the common stuff. Show me  your material at the show. I really want 1982 and before however. I also send money for material that is quality.

Damn... This site is just bridging all kinds of gaps!

I just reread you comments. How could bullshitting about ugs with someone you know over the net be a waste of time. If you want, join me and Jason after the show on Sat.

I'll definitely run into you at the show, no question on that. I have to find out what the VALIANT comics guys have planned as I'm assuming Saturday night will be the big night to do stuff with those guys, since some aren't coming in Friday and some (like me) are leaving a little early Sunday.

[50Cent #II (1st print)]

Enjoy the show you guys, wish I could be there.
And if you come across any incredibly cheap copies of FB #2 (1st print "A" or "B") or 4th print copies...

Mine would have to be either my Tales From the Ozone 1 or my Doomsday Comics...... others are close but those two are my favorite....... also, all of by Bryson comix!

I went by Dolgoff's booth several times to look for The Doctor on Saturday, but didn't see him. I was going to ask Dolgoff if he had any undergrounds or knew when the Dr. was coming in, but every time I went to his booth, the guy would look at me and then basically ignore me. Usually if a dealer sees someone looking at his stuff, he will at least acknowledge them with a hello. I guess he figured that I looked like I didn't have a lot of money to spend. 

[Visitor Q]

J... I stopped by that booth as well, never saw Arnold there either.

Yeah zazz, welcome to the boards.

I was at the booth, off and on from 11 to 3 when I left. Other than seeing Bonzai  I missed everyone and the show was mostly a bust. Picked up a misprint Heavi-Tragi comics and a Marvel Zombie T-Shirt.  Other than that, I should have stayed in bed. If you want my list, brother j, just pm me your real email. It is an excel file.

I don't think I even made it to the show until 2. The day for me was more or less a disaster!

Who even had Undergorunds there? I mean like I said, I was not really looking too hard but they were not out in the open from what I could tell. Maybe it was on of those "have to ask" type deals?

It exactly was that, you had to ask. Here's the lowdown on who I found with undergrounds.

Motor City had a lot of good stuff, extremely high prices. I personally think some of them were TOO high, for instance, VG/F copies of Zap #1 (2nd) for $500.

Two other dealers had some in boxes. One was a younger kid, they had two small boxes of stuff. Nothing impressive. I picked up a Fear and Laughter #1 for $8, a "2" for $10 and a Bent 2nd print in nice shape for $5. I bought the two latter books to have S. Clay Wilson sign them, but I only had him sign the "2" because he seemed a bit pissed that I didn't want to buy any of the stuff that he had for sale.

The other dealer was another young guy, very nice and full of energy, he was talking a mile a minute. I helped him identify some printings and I bought a stack from him on Sunday because his prices were all 50% off. Got a nice stack of seven UG's I needed for $20.

One other guy had a few UG items, some Crumb books (not comics, but the thick books) and an issue of Anomaly. I didn't buy anything from him.

[Visitor Q]

Hahaha... Yeah I can see that with Wilson. It's funny, the copy of "Spots" I brought him to sign with the Checkered Demon on the inside. He wrote word bubbles from him. The first one said something to the effect of, "Who is this guy S. Clay Wilson?" and then the other one said, "He's a drunk guy in N.Y.C.".

Like I said, I was more or less there to meet those guys who I have talked to before and was not really looking all that much for comix. As stated, it was a pretty hectic day for me in general, finding comix was sorta an after thought. I was more or less concerned with the artist as I can buy comix any old day of the week.

BTW, I don't think Fogel or Hippycomix were there AT ALL, and they were supposed to be a sponsor. I think Dan was also supposed to run the Wilson/Spain panel, which might explain why it was cancelled.
