Back in the 50’s, when I was in grade school, there was a comics shop that was a semi “library”, allowing us to trade in X number of comics for X-N new comics. Mom wouldn’t let me keep my comics for more than a few months before she made me trade them in. Of course, we had no idea that decades later collectors would have paid hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars for my collection!
