Set Description
This collection of Silver Age comic books was assembled in Winnipeg, Canada by two friends, Joe Krolic and Dennis Kjolso from the early '60s well into the '90s. In 1997 the collection was sold to Dan Greenhalgh, who in turn marketed them through his catalog. Consisting of full runs of every major Marvel title, nearly all issues prior to 1966 exhibit Kjolso's name written in blue ballpoint pen at the top of each cover. Many of the later issues were CGC graded and sold by Doug Schmell after CGC's opening in 2000. The collection is known for its high page quality and exceptional grades, particularly after 1964.

Set Goals
Always been a huge fan of the Winnipeg pedigree books, because of the consistently high page quality. Although I can't seem to locate a master list of what is all in the collection, my goal is to reassemble as much of the collection as possible. The hunt will be challenging and fun!
