I wish I had my old collection of Pokémon cards back.
(CNN)A rare copy of a Superman comic book sold for nearly $1 million this week.
The 1938 comic book marks the first appearance of Superman, and is considered a gem among comic book fans, according to Heritage Auctions. It was expected to sell for $750,000 but fetched $956,000.
The rare copy of a comic book was expected to sell for $750,000, but sold for $956,000 instead.
About 100 copies of the comic book are believed to exist decades after production.
"Few copies of this comic survive, let alone come to auction with such a bright cover," said Lon Allen, managing director of comics and comic art at Heritage Auctions

Read this today, and thought to myself....
Never had anything worth that much, but i wonder how much those Willie Mays rookie baseball cards that i used to put into the spokes of my bicycle might be worth today? Or how much my old album collection that my ex-wife ended up with after the divorce would be worth today?
Dont you wish you had your old collection of ________'s back now?

I have every single comic book I bought and collected when I was a kid. I also still have all my Matchbox cars from the '70s. I don't think any of them are worth much. I do wish I was an X-Man comic book fan then though.
Edit:
Oh I still have every single paperback I ever purchased lying around on shelves too. I am so glad the kindle and e-books came out.
no way in the world i would have enough room for all the books i read
you must have a lot of room in your house....lol

Books are great. I love the smell. Does anyone else think books smell? Yeah, I have an entire room, bookshelves wall to wall, floor to ceiling. All the technology bores me, and sitting down with a good book relaxes me.
What is with this book smelling fetish some have. :2razz: I don't think I ever heard about book smelling till people who really hate e-readers started speaking against them, lol.
Nah, it's a thing. It's what a library smells like, which is what I think most people like about. My parents took me to the library every other weekend. I open a book, and bam, that smell takes me back.
