Bob Gray and I were good friends back in the mid-80s into the 90's, but I haven't spoken to him in over 10 years...

I can't wait for this book to come out also. Since the first pedigrees I ever bought were Palo Altos, I've been looking forward to reading that section for some time, even though it's not as exciting as some of the others. Glad to see it's closer to coming out.

Didn't one of the Dang brother buy all the Nedors? Were they then lost in the Oakland hills fire?

What I'd like to see at some point is a GCD type database of scans of pedigree books. It be cool to try and put together full runs of a title as a community effort. I know well probably never see many books but it would be pretty cool none the less.


Actually, we're building a database for this right now. We've cobbled together several thousand scans of pedigree books from various sources, and once the book is finished, go live with the archive on comicpedigrees.com. From that point, users will be able to sign in and upload any scans of pedigrees to the database. There are many, many little details to be ironed out, but that is the jist of it.

Eventually the original lists may be up there to serve as a checklist, so there is a goal to shoot for. In essence we'll be re-assembling each collection!

And this is just a part of the plans we have for the website in the future. Once the book is out, the website will pick up from there and move forward with live data for the pedigree collections.
