Richie Rich and Casper 27 (1978) multiple pages [all Grails - no kidding]

Richie Rich and Casper #27 cover dated March 1978 was first on-sale in Dec 1978.

My memories of seeing the book for the first time go back to Christmas Eve morning 1978. On the start of a trip to my grandparents my Mom stopped on the Main Street of our hometown to go into the bank telling me to stay in the car with my sister. Different times back then.

It was my very first week as comic book reader and across the street from our car was a coffee shop/newsstand. Grabbed my sister and said we're taking a walk. In the coffee shop I picked out a book and my little sister pointed and was like "Casper, Casper" so I grabbed the Richie Rich and Casper #27 for her. Paid for both books and we went back to the car.

When my Mom returned to the vehicle, my sister was reading the comic (looking at the pictures). My Mom said "where did you get that?" My sister said "he got it for me"

Mom got upset saying "I told you not to leave the car!" Then was like...wait you got that for her, "my %#!@ brother, never would have got anything for me". She then went on "all the money you had was 3 quarters and you spent most if it on her?" I said yes. Mom then said in effect I know I'll never have to worry about your sister getting by.

Mom has been gone for quite a while now, but to this day I still take care of my little sister.

Recently I acquired 2 handful of pages from Richie Rich and Casper #27 - my sisters first comic book, all are Grail's to me. See the additional images for the pages I recall most from Christmas Eve 1978!
