Local News - Very Important Comics and Toys Auction this Saturday!
Howdy!
Today's newsletter is all about the charitable efforts that we are working on right now here at
Mile High Comics.
I will begin by mentioning quickly that we have a
huge comics and toys auction
planned for this Saturday morning at
Jason St.,
starting at 11:30 AM. While the core of the auction is to help us pay our company bills, we will
also be auctioning a significant number of items where all of the revenues received will go to
help to purchase warm winter clothing for those who are homeless here in Denver, and also in
Albuquerque.

While the majority of the items that we will be auctioning for the benefit of the poor will
be coming from
Mile High Comics,
we are still very much seeking donations of items to include
in the charity part of the auction. If you would like to help us to provide warm socks, caps,
scarves and gloves to the people who are forced to spend their nights outdoors in our city in
below-freezing weather, we would be most appreciative. Just bring your unwanted collectibles
with you to
Jason St.,
and we will auction them for you on Saturday morning, with 100% of the proceeds being spent
on clothing for the poor.
X-MEN #266 for mini-auction to help to purchase new prosthetic legs for a 9 year-old
girl who lives in Costa Rica.
X-MEN #244 for mini-auction to help to purchase new prosthetic legs for a 9 year-old
girl who lives in Costa Rica.
GREEN LANTERN #76 for mini-auction to help to purchase new prosthetic legs for a 9 year-old
girl who lives in Costa Rica.
Aside from auctioning certain items to purchase warm clothing for Denver's poor, we are also
going to have a little mini-auction to help to purchase new prosthetic legs for a 9 year-old
girl who lives in Costa Rica. This beautiful young lady had a rare heart disorder when she was
only four years old that caused her to have both her legs amputated at the knees, and also both
of her arms at the elbows. She received her current prosthetics when she was six, and has now
outgrown them, and desperately needs new ones. We are going to auction the following three great
comics to help her to cover that $2,700 cost, and we will also have a chance drawing for an incredibly wild
NEGAN WALKING DEAD statue that just arrived this week.
WALKING DEAD NEGAN Statue
In case you are wondering, I learned of this little girl's desperate plight from my dear friend
Henry Bastos-Wood, who was the Emperor of our
New York Imperial Court
last year. Henry was born in Costa Rica, and was visiting there last weekend as a judge for the
Miss Costa Rica World pageant. Henry heard about this young girl from the organizers of the pageant,
and is pictured with the young lady in the photo below. Henry brought her a cool stuffed dragon as
a gift from New York, but when he realized that her prosthetic legs no longer fit, he contacted me
to see if I could help in any way. That is why we are auctioning the three comics, and having the
chance drawing for the NEGAN WALKING DEAD statue for her. Please come on Saturday morning and support our
auction
and chance drawing!
Little girl who needs new prosthetics
I will close with a couple of quick plugs for our upcoming
poker game
(also a benefit for warm clothing) and also the
New Era Wrestling exhibition
that will both be taking place on Saturday at
Jason St.
This Saturday is going to be an incredibly fun day at
Mile High Comics!

Happy collecting!
