The Don Rosa Collection
Coming soon! CBP is proud to
exclusively present the remaining Don Rosa Pedigree collection in the very near
future. Featuring over 6,000 comics, this amazing collection was only offered to
collectors at four shows last year, with a few select books reaching ebay. It
has been completely off the market since November 2005.
Accumulated by world-renowned and
Eisner award winning comic book artist, writer, and historian, Keno Don Rosa,
this collection contained every comic book and magazine issued from every
publisher from 1966 to the late 1980's. Rosa began collecting in earnest in
1962, as he purchased each comic from the newsstands, read them only once, and
carefully tucked them away in optimum storage conditions, using archival boxes
and a climate controlled "vault." Because they were stored in such an
environment with no use of polybags, each book exhibits a brilliant sheen, deep
ink reflectivity, sharp corners and a fresh newsstand appearance.
Since the 1960's, Don Rosa has been
recognized as one of the first comics history scholars of fandom. He has written
and illustrated Question & Answer columns for the major fanzines of the 1970's,
including such notable publications as Rocket's Blast Comiccollector, CBG (TBG),
Comics Journal, and Amazing Heroes. During the 1980's Rosa gained fame as one of
the world's most famous and recognized cartoonists as he worked on the Duck
books for Disney and Gladstone.
