geeky treasure

[johncomic]

Comic-strip historian-geeks will appreciate this treasure I stumbled across today, in a thrift store, for less than CAN$2: a book collection [which appears to be a first printing, 1945] of the comic strip Male Call by Milton Caniff . Non-historian-geeks will need to be informed that Caniff is like the Shakespeare and Rembrandt of comics — one of the greatest and most important cartoonists in the history of the medium.

 

And the sweetest bonus of all: autographed.
