I recently scanned over two hundred of Shel’s negatives from the 1974 San Diego Comic-Con, which was held at the El Cortez Hotel with Bill Lund as Chairman. (I received the negatives from Shel’s friend and cartooning partner Charlie Roberts.)
The first two photos show Shelf posing as an action hero. They were in poor condition but are fun to see and are posted below. (By the way, if you’d like to see more pictures from this batch, there are another twenty three posted at http://www.comicconmemories.com/1974-san-diego-comic-con-photos-batch-1-can-you-identify-people-in-the-pictures. Also, if anyone knows the identity of the other guy in the pictures, please let us know.)
