Expert Villagers; we're back with some interesting, kind of comic book stuff that I'd like to
mention, that kind of falls in the same category. Let's talk about some; well actually, these
are comic books. These would be the movie comic books; where they're put out; you know
Disney was famous for them. When you made a movie, then you'd make a comic book out
of it, and you know how Disney does the cross-promotions, well this would be Blackbeard's Ghost. This
comic book cost twelve cents, so you know that is what? Silver Age; even though it's
not a Superhero. So this is Blackbeard's Ghost, and it's got the original pictures from the
movie. Then it also has some beautiful art in there from the movie, and it also has a
sign of the times. Look at this phenomenal fishing set. Now, isn't that exciting? When
you're a kid, you'd open that up; you'd take a look; look at all that fishing stuff; look
at all those lures, you've got three...twelve dollars and ninety five cents, and I'd like
to mention that fishing stuff is hugely collectible. Fishing lures; I can't tell you; can't get
enough of it, especially if it's in the original boxes, but that's an aside. Anyway, this is
the kind of magazines I'm talking about. Here's another Disney movie; First Man in the Moon,
is that Disney; no; this is Columbia Pictures; First Man in the Moon. So the movie comic
books are collectible too. They're not as valuable, but they're fun.
