Krause Publications’ Sharon Korbeck, editor for the long-running
periodicals Toy Shop and Antique Trader, stopped by Diamond
International Galleries yesterday on her way to the Atlantique City show in
Atlantic City, New Jersey. Korbeck spent the day talking with Steve Geppi, John
K. Snyder, Jr., the Gallery staff and the Gemstone Publishing staff, discussing
issues facing collectors.

“It was great having Sharon spend the day with
us,” said Snyder. “It’s always fun to show off the Gallery, but it’s
particularly enjoyable when it’s to someone who understands how we’re trying to
document the rich history of comic characters.”
