[net.comics] Looking for Dutch comics

avr@purdue.UUCP (Andrew V. Royappa) (11/25/85)

	Hi .. 
	
	I know Dutch, but it's very rusty.  I've  decided  that the best
way to keep it up is to read Dutch comics.  My favorite Dutch comics are
"Suske en  Wiske".  If someone in Holland  knows the name or address  of
the company which publishes these, I'd appreciate receiving it.  I think
the name is "Standaard Uitgeverij".

	If there's  someone there in Holland who has a big collection of
Suske en Wiske comics and would like to get rid of them, I'd like to buy
'em all, a few at a time (since used comics  would cost me less than new
ones,  and I'm only a poor  graduate  student).  I can think of  various
fairly  secure  ways to  transact  a  cross-atlantic  bargain.  I'm also
interested  in  miscellaneous  Dutch  comics, and "Heer Bommel" (I think
that's the name) books.  I'd like the name or address of the  publisher,
but I'd prefer to get used books.

	When I say "publisher" above, I suppose I also mean distributor,
that is, someone I can purchase books from by mail.

	Finally, if you (insert  picture of Unca' Sam pointing a finger)
know a place in the US where I can write to to buy foreign  comics,  I'd
like to hear from you, too.

			Thanks.
