Seems to be quite a bit of interest in the old Seattle Star - or maybe people have just never seen the cover to #1 before.
Early in its existence, publisher Michael Dowers sent me forth in the vicinity of Seattle's University District on a quest to sell some advertising to the Seattle Star. I didn't get much response even though I dropped in on every shop and small commercial enterprise on "The Ave." I'll never forget when I made my pitch at the Grand Illusion movie theater and was turned down with a remark to the effect that "movies and comics have nothing in common!" A year or so later, Michael hired someone who was really good at advertising sales and the paper flourished for several years.
