When my brother and I grew up, we decided that I'd keep all the comics and MAD magazines, even the ones that he had originally bought, and he'd keep all of the baseball cards and other sports cards and magazines... I originally asked about the baseball cards; now I wonder about the magazines. Are current WWE etc. wrestling fans interested in issues of Wrestling Revue from the mid 1960s with stars like Bruno Sammartino and Gorilla Monsoon? |

Rob, as a fellow former Jerseyan, did you watch those late-night Channel 9 broadcasts with wrestlers like those two and Bobo Brazil, Wahoo McDaniel ( the former NY Jet), Haystacks Calhoun, etc.? Primitive by today's standards -- no fireworks, girls (excepting the Fabulous Moolah, of course), elaborate costumes or steroids -- but entertaining nevertheless. |

I sure did, and when Channel 9 stopped showing it we followed it to Channel 47, the Spanish channel where it was listed as "Lucha Libre". |

Another instance of (euro) comics on stamps. This is Asterix, this was released in Germany in a mini-sheet form. Have another of these on the way as I like my stamps genuinely postally used.  |
