        Are these the MEGOs that were featured in your book?

          Hey, I've stopped and started collecting before, so I may be back in the hunt some day. And what a challenge that would be.

          Yes, most of my collection appears in the book, and those specimens will be notated as such.

            With that in mind, I plan on buying a piece or three. If you ever decide to get back into things, look me up and I will sell them to you. I'll keep them nice and safe for you.

              Hahaha Love it! I bought some of those pieces in 1986, so I think I've kept them, nice and safe, long enough for this go-around.

                  you do have some great memories and a whole buncha color glossies to reminisce with. Hopefully the current economy and market won't sting you for your sale. It is all top notch packaged stuff, and that seems to be pretty solid in the market still. Good luck with the sale. Looking forward to watching it go down.

                    Wow! I am shocked. Did you hold onto one or two for old times sake?

                      I can see why you are excited, it should be one heck of an auction. And, not that you need me to tell you this, you made a good decision to go with Hakes instead of ebay. They do all the work and you probably end up with more cash.

                          Yes, my childhood Batman and Robin, along with a handful of loose WGSH. My entire packaged collection is on a truck somewhere.

                            Sorry to see them not in your hands anymore, but hope they do well for you at auction. Your little snippet that you sent into Entertainment Weekly was what lead me to your book and eventually to the museum and for that I thank you.
                            It's all good!

                                Is it possibly to list the highlights of your collection? I definitely remember that you had a WGSH Counter display and a nice looking Solid box Superman and Batman and host of kresges.
