Jim, Just how well do you know Roy Thomas?
Me, I know him not at all. He would be the perfect point-of-contact at TwoMorrows. He is, I am sure, a Shelly fan!
BTW, there is also a book coming from them on Beck/Scharfenberger about their work on The Big Red Cheese, as well as the book on Anderson. They will all be on my bookcase.

This leads to a new topic, I am single. I have family, yes. But, except for one nephew who will appreciate the LSH Archives, no one that will want anything I have. The idea of my stuff being sold at a yard sale gives me shivers. (Although those buying will certainly be happy).

I am thinking of pre-arranging with the college I graduated from as to thier interest in a whole bunch of "Popular Culture" prior to, or post my "buying the farm." All kinds of comic book hardbacks and TPBs. A great collection, if I do say so myself.
I just wonder will they mutilate the books with all kinds of stamps and such?

Does the map include the 100+ pages printed overseas that were mentioned? Or is that the same material as was used in the digests and/or S&S #99?

the map includes everything the GCD had. If there are more pages out there, I hope they get included. Fortunately (in a sad, dispiriting way), Volume 13 is a good 20 years away, which gives the GCD (and DC) plenty of time to identify any unaccounted for material.

Crap, I'll be 60 in 20 years. 'Scuse me while I go cry over books that will never see print.

Wayne, somewhat. I hosted his first online chat ever and have spoken to him on the phone. He's a big Mayer-supporter and he tries to fit Shelly Stuff into ALTER EGO whenever he can (helps that a big A/E contributor, Alex Toth, is a Shelly fan also) and Roy once told me he'd like to have an All-Mayer issue to supplement the fine offering of COMIC BOOK ARTIST from a couple of years back.
