FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AUGUST 2, 2010
Rare Comic Book and Sports Card Collections Up for Auction at www.municibid.com
Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman announces the online auction of a rare comic book collection and a rare sports trading card collection which were previously forfeited to the District Attorney’s Office. Municibid.com will host the internet auction, which commences today, August 2, 2010. Bidding on each collection will close on August 9, 2010 at 9:00 AM.
Each comic book and sports card collection was forfeited to the District Attorney’s Office under Pennsylvania laws that allow property that was purchased with the proceeds from illegal drug sales to be seized, forfeited and sold. Proceeds from the auction will be used to enforce drug laws throughout Montgomery County.
“Superman,” “The Amazing Spiderman,” “Daredevil,” and “X-Men” are among the 115 comic books in the collection. All-time greats Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle, Steve Carlton, Joe Namath, Gale Sayers, Michael Jordan and Eric Lindros are only some of the superstars contained in the sports trading card collection.
Further details, including a complete listing of all cards, are located at www.municibid.com (search by listing title word “collectable”) or by calling the District Attorney’s Forfeiture Unit at (610) 278-3107.
