I'm 47 and started collecting at age 3. I had things like the reprint of Fantastic Four #1, from the late '60s. The pride of my collection was a 1962 Batman, with a face value of $0.10 that I found at the back of a newsstand when I was about 10 years old, that had a villian in it you've never heard of before (Dr. Tzin Tzin).
The way that I figure it my brother owes me roughly the equivalent of a 5 bedroom house and a cottage, since he snuck 90%+ of my collection out and sold it off, in the late '70s / early '80s. All the good stuff went for face value.
