Dear Ger: You and Allen Lane both deserve the place reserved for you in heaven; these first Buck Rogers by Tuska you are publishing make me feel like a kid again... I just turned 60, but, in my heart, I'm 8 years old, again! Do you plan to publish the next story, also? The one about a duplicator machine, where, for the first time, I saw an alien with pointed ears! (I'm positive Gene Roddenberry got the idea for Spock after reading that story!...)
Luifel, I got my set from Alan, paid a little for his efforts. And I am reluctant to use all of it here, he invested so much time. But I could try and get you in contact with him to see if he still sells his complete sets...
Tuska spaceship designs are só unique. I remember a story, published around 1963 where Buck Rogers engage in a space combat with a ship manned by a renegade android. I tried to build a model of the ship but I never found this strip again. Anybody knows the name of this story. Is about a android that gets mad after crossing the Van Allen belts
I am slowly selling my comics, cartoon and newspaper collection on Ebay. In short, when I am done scanning them and they are on the blog, I no longer need to keep the original paper. If you want to go and have a look what I have on sale now, please go to http://www.ebay.com/sch/gerapeldoorn/m.html?item=152381924308&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562. Prices are low and I combine for shipping.

I have been doing this blog for over ten years now. I find more and more that it is used by comic book, newspaper strip and cartoon historians as a tool for their research or additional illustrations. And I encourage that. I have larger uncleaned scans for all self scanned images on this blog for those want to use it for their book or article. Just ask and we'll get something going. Family members of artists mentioned here or anyone who is interested in donating scans is encouraged to make contact. By the way, the quickest way to reach me these days is through Facebook.
I highly recommend
Getting any of these wonderful books will help me fund this page.
I am a Dutch television writer, who has written about comics and television for a number of publications here in Holland and in the US. I love hearing from (forgotten) artists and/or their relatives, so if you are one of those and happen upon this blog, please leave a note.

If it were up to me, I'd like to see every Buck Rogers by Tuska published here...
Thanks for posting - looking forward to Part 3
