Which issues do you have in your collection?

Including the 99 reprints I mentioned, I have a complete collection. 1888 to 1895 are all reprints. 1896 to 1907 are mixed. 1908 to 2020 are originals. I just got the December 2020 newsstand copy, still waiting for my subscription copy.

I'd love to see your collection!

How long have you been collecting the news stand editions?

Sorry, the best way to describe the state of my collection is "organized chaos".  I keep meaning to get it presentable but life keeps getting in the way.  Maybe some day.

As for the Newsstand copies, I've only been buying them a couple of years, mainly for my Cover Variant research (and because I can get them sooner to read and image).
