I just found out about it the other day after-the-fact...and I shudder to think what the value may have been. I'm not a comic collector - but I know some of those early issues are worth a ton of dough now.
Hell yeah they can be. I collected them in the 80's when I was kid, but at that time they printed so many copies of them most of them are not worth much, but stuff from the the 40's, 50's and 60's is almost always worth a lot. A buddy of mine had an old Donald Duck comic book from the late 40's that he recently sold for $300 and it wasn't in all that great of condition. If you had a stack of those they could add up pretty quickly.
