I have about half of his work on Prize Comics Western. I want to scan those books fir the Digital Comics Museum and sell them afterwards. At my tempo that might take a year to happen.
I just went to the Ilovecomics archive and I am amazed at hiw far they gave come. I opened the Beetle Bailey file and found almost complete years for 1953 and 1955 ... In amazing color!
And as for Prize Comcis Wester, I see now that they do have all of them at the Digital Comics Museum! So if it is scan you want, go there. If you want real books, I am going to sell mine.
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.

John Severin deserves a book or an anthology all on his. A truly great artist. Do you have any of his "American Eagle" material?
Just to let you know the www.ilovecomixarchive.com is back online again and is much improved. -Steven C.

Steve, I like the archives, but sometimes I wish they had more from other sources than my blog... :-)
