Shinders, 8th St & Hennepin Ave, Mpls, MN, 1964

Shinders, downtown location was in existence 1916 to about 1997 or so.
It was the go to place, for any printed material. A big, big comic section with old comics up on the wall.
I once got a Journey Into Mystery 84 for a couple bucks there in the 1980's, quite a deal! Then I lost it on the city bus some time later!


Yours,
B.

Thanks Brian!  I have notes on these I'll add later today.
They cover several eras of collecting nicely.  :)

Yoc: Notes I have on this one-
One boy's dream is to be surrounded by comics and he gets to pick whatever he wants in a Taylor street bookstore in 1946. On top of his stack is:
Detective Comics #104 (October 1945)
Unknown book in his other hand.

Funny Stuff #7 (Winter 1945) is on the top of another pile.

This one is in color, somebody had some money for buying comic books.

Yoc: Notes I have on this one-
All from 1948: Giggle Comics #54 (June); Calling All Kids #19 (June); Ace Comics #135 (June); Frisky Fables #3 (June); All Star Comics #41 (June/July); Joe Palooka #21 (June); Jumbo Comics (June); Feature Comics #123 (June); behind the head of the boy on the left is Captain Marvel #86 (July); Popeye #2 (May-July); Patsy Walker #17 (July); Li'l Abner #64 (June); Daredevil #49 (July); behind the girl is Tip Top Comics #143 (June); Winnie Winkle #2 (June-August); Smitty #2 (May-July); Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #91 (Vol.8, No.7; April); Red Ryder #58 (May); Action Comics #120 (May); Prize Comics Western #69 (May/June; formerly Prize Comics until #68); Jingle Jangle Comics (June).  The boy on the left is reading Super Duck, probably #20 (June).

Nice finds, Geo.

Just look at the comics above the dealer's head above the caption "Store/news stand in the 1940's"

The first issue of World's Best(Finest) Comics, followed by Superman, Action Comics, All-Star Comics, Master Comics with both Bulletman & Bulletgirl on the cover. (That should be easy to identify.) Not to mention an early Blue Beetle issue.

Somebody, please, loan me a vintage dollar bill, and a time machine!

Thanks GM, that Bogart one (talk about reading a super obscure comics!) I shared not long ago in the Famous Faces topic and I'm pretty sure the first one is from a Japanese internment camp set I shared but I forget which section it would be in here.

Take care,

Hi Yoc, sorry for any duplications. I'll try and be more diligent in scouting the forum first to avoid it in the future.

No problem at all GM, I've shared so many now I'm not always sure which I have and have not shared sometimes.
