DALLAS, TX
.- Beginning in June, Heritage Auctions will bring to market more than 5,000 high-grade Golden Age comic books that haven t seen the light of day since they were purchased off newsstands in the 1940s.
The Promise Collection, as it s now called, was assembled by a young boy who grew up, went to war and never returned. For decades, the books were kept safe by the brother who vowed to keep watch over the comics should anything happen to his sibling on the battlefield. Hence its moniker, proof of a promise kept.
