Rocket\'s Blast Comicollector (RBCC) was a comics advertising fanzine published from 1964 to 1983. The result of a merger with a similar publication, RBCC\'s purpose was to bring fans together for the purpose of adding to their comic book collections. It also proved to be a launching pad for aspiring comic book creators, many of whom corresponded and exchanged their work through RBCC, and published work in the fanzine as amateurs. RBCC featured fan-generated art, original articles, and advertisements from comic book fans and dealers. Debuting in the pre-direct marking era (before the proliferation of comics retailers), RBCC was one of the first and largest forums for buying and selling comics through the mail — often, the only way for fans to acquire back issues was through advertisements in RBCC. And, as ComicSource wrote, \"RBCC was also an educational forum, with rich articles devoted to comics and creators long absent from the newsstands, such as EC Comics.\"
This is a original item from the collection of none other than Kennett Neily. who is he you ask, he was the man in the story below who sold the famous \"White Mountain Collection\" of silver age comic books, known for being in amazingly clean unread condition and for having a date stamp, from when the item was purchased the first page inside, well he did that on just about everything he bought.
In 1984 a man approached Jerry Weist, owner of \"The Million Year Picnic\" comic shop in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with a small sampling of comics from his collection. This initial meeting was the hobby\'s introduction towhat is now referred to as the White Mountain Collection. Few collections of Silver Age books approach the consistently high level of condition and page quality that White Mountain copies possess. Weist would eventually become the organizer for Sotheby\'s comic book and comic art sales.In that capacity,heintroduced the collecting world to this fabulous discovery, offering choice samplings in Sotheby\'s 1991, 1993 and 1996 sales. Many collectors are still not aware that the collection\'s large body of Silver Age publications also included a small sampling of choice, early Underground Comix. It should also be said that mostcollectors have yet to grasp thesignificance of that inclusion. For most Silver Age collectors, the UG\'s are the forgotten books of the period, and this is a serious omission on their part.
AND EVEN FEWER KNOW AB0UT HIS COLLECTION OF SCIENCE FICTION BOOKS, H.P LOVECRAFT ITEMS (he published a zine called Lovecraftian Ramblings in the 80\'s), MAPS, TRAVEL BROCHURES, PORN, TV GUIDES, CAR MANUALS, ETC. also in amazing, mostly unread mint condition.
