My Father gave me a small run of Dick Tracy #100-#143 1950's series but, unfortunatly in the fifties when he was young he didn't know any better and punched holes in all but two with a hole punch and put them in a three-ring binder. Are these comics worth anything other than for my own collection?  Thanks

Short answer: No

Longer answer:

They are worth the nostolgia of having them and maybe it will influence you into collecting comics like the rest of us!

Those are called "golden age" comics and golden age is what everyone should be collecting.

the punched holes...a lot of comic collectors back in the day did that ...punched hole ,stuck them in the binders took them to school and traded comics that way..this was back 50s' as far as i know -met 3 old timers and that's what they did as for worth..back in the day of robert bell and rogofsky? i think they would back them...i do know that gary dalgoff use to sell them

koch too...if i remember correctly they wanted $$$ for them it wouldn't be singles they were sold as binded copies eg dd1-10 binded,asm#10-20... i know it's worth something to somebody

somewhere ...
