I was an unknown collector in the 1970′s and still am. I met Jay Maybruck of Sparkle City in 1977 when the comic market was in its infancy. Mr. Maybruck’s efforts, along with those of Phil Seuling, Steve Geppi and a few others led to the creation of a stable comic investing market which grew greater then I ever imagined it would. The advice and counsel I received from Sparkle City earned me, should I sell today, over 20 million dollars.
Jay if you ever see this, thank you and I hope you are still alive and now well.



Th greatest challenge in the field of energy is to take down Exxonn -Mobil by a non-frofit Emergency Energy Policy which will convert all energy use in the United States to Hydrogen cales, wind, power and solar power. Wkth extreme dedication this can be achieved within 5 years.
Regaring the Sparkle City Interview I listened to these. The portfolio currentlt being offered on ebay under Sparkle City Comics is a great buy–the more expensive ones breal down to under $4 a book without art or included items.
