For real? My uncle is almost 70 and he used to have a bunch of comics from the 1950s. A lot of different genres during that time, but kind of sad from a collectors point of view. He was to young to have bought the Golden Age original Superman/Batman/Captain America stuff but then he was to old to be buying comics by the early 60s when the Marvel books started coming out.
I started collecting in the late 1980s and IIRC I could still find some for $0.75. They went up rapidly though and about four years later the early Image Comics were $1.95.
