    Default Anyone remember Prince Valiant comic strip?

    Hubby and I have been thinking we need to start downsizing over the coming few years so I thought I should get rid of my Prince Valiant collection that I saved over earlier years. I got it out to see if it might be worthwhile to try and sell it (on Ebay). Laid it all out and sorted all the pages. Found out I have 8 scrapbooks from1977 to 1993 and then just loose pages from 1993 to 2004 plus 8 hardback books, a large collectible poster and even a letter from John Cullen Bryant, the second artist. Then I looked on Ebay and nothing looked like it was even selling. Bummer. I told hubby that I should just keep and hand down to kids and grandkids. Then a 100 years after I am dead , it might be worth something like on Antiques Roadshow. People will look at all these newspaper comic strips and say, "Wow! they used to read stories on 'paper'!!! LOL! So was anyone else a fan of this comic strip? I just loved the stories and can remember reading it every Sunday from when I could first read way back in early 50's.

    I remember it. I wasn't crazy about his chin length hair cut. Long hair on a guy in the 1950's wasn't cool.. I liked it okay other than that.
