    What a great shop, reminds me of some of the shops I used to go to as a kid in the 80's.

    That is the kind of shop I love. You got a great deal too. I have a few Weist estate comics from way back. I’ll try to check the shop out sometime next year. Thanks Jerry.👍

    Thanks for sharing this! I used to go to this shop in the late seventies and early eighties when I was a kid. It used to be twice the size that it is now, it took up that entire floor. There also used to be several other shops in Cambridge, one in Central Square and a smaller shop that was in one of those multi store concourses. That’s not counting Newbury Comics which actually sold comics in large numbers. Those were the days….so many places then to buy comics, we had our choice and we’d hit everyone of the shops starting first thing Saturday morning. A glorious time. Again, thanks for bringing back a ton of memories.

      Wow thank you for the history! It definitely must have been a very special time during this era, which I remember fondly in the area I grew up in on Long Island. Glad I was able to bring back positive memories which makes the upload that much better for me. Appreciate you supporting the channel and don’t forget to stay tuned because my 3000 subscriber giveaway will be uploaded shortly!

    I love that you picked up Frankensteins monster! What a great character in general made my Mary Shelley! I’m surprised that this comic isn’t hotter just because what is classic horror without Frankenstein!

    • @jerrythejitterbugcomicbook4098
      @jerrythejitterbugcomicbook4098  9 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed my friend. I was so happy thumbing through the books and seeing that book. It was awesome. Thank you for stopping by and have a great weekend.

    Wish there would be more comic shops like these here where i live in which is Europe! Sometimes im jealous of America for having more of these since in EU unfortunately it's not the case most of the time, take care and can't wait for da next vid Jerry! 🔥✌️

      @@jerrythejitterbugcomicbook4098I live in Poland and honestly there's not a lot of comic nerds in Poland unfortunately so ig im a special one there 🤣, but yeah ig that's why they don't make much shops here like this since not many people go to these unfortunately, man i gotta move to America one day! 😂, and obviously again, peace Jerry! ✌️

    A bargain, Jerry, I do remember it! Glad you went in and had a great hunt. I think I have a Jerry Weiss CGC book and remember when his collection went on eBay. Not all of it was CGC’d and I might have won another auction that were selling as a lot - I think some 10 years ago now. Really happy you got to see it.
    Next time in Salem! We have a megastore called Harrison’s and a smaller one that has newer stuff. Some others around the area also. Thanks for the tour, Jerry!

    You were in Cambridge? You're not too far from me in Salem. I've tried to go to that shop a few times but in the past they were renovating and couldn't get in will have to make it there this year.

    MYP is a great shop with a fine selection and decent prices and as you can see, they have a fine selection of graphic novels and books about the medium!
    BTW
    I've heard about those sleazebags who try to up the price from what it says on the label, and they are just begging for a legal beatdown because that sounds crooked!

    • @jerrythejitterbugcomicbook4098
      @jerrythejitterbugcomicbook4098  9 месяцев назад

      Agreed my friend it definitely was a wonderful shop that I enjoyed immensely. Looking forward to visiting the shop again hopefully not too far in the distant future. Thank you for stopping by and stay tuned my friend.

      Yes. I am aware of that if I did not mention it in the upload. I believe I did say there are books on eBay from his estate. Unfortunately when I do these uploads it is one time filming with no editing. Facts fall through the cracks at times.
