Mmehdy Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Bob and bud plant would be able to answer that in a minute, John Barrett passed away. For me the sf collection was unlike any other collection I have ever seen in terms of. Quality , I also liked gary's ec comic book San Fran comic book collection Edited September 1, 2015 by Mmehdy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 If the board would consider resuming his postiing privileges even on " double secert probation"... I bet you would get a quick response But not a short response, nor a response of a person of integrity or honesty. So thanks, but I'm okay with never knowing for sure (and really, we know he doesn't know the answer, or we'd all know what it said for sure).
