Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum Receives Larry Ivey Collection

Details were sketchy, but the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum announced late Friday that it had received into its care its latest procurement, the Larry Ivie Collection. Ivie passed away in 2014 and was one of the golden generation of 'zine makers that laid the foundation for modern fandom and modern comics studies. His best-known title was Monsters & Heroes.

The picture available through the link shows some early fan magazine efforts and an eclectic smattering of key publications, not all of them comics. I look forward to digging into what's there at some point, and the great thing about a Billy Ireland donation is that that material is there to be studied. Our continued condolences and gratitude to Ivie's family.
