Possible Million-Dollar Comic Collection Spared in Fatal Fire. Heritage Auction Galleries will sell the comic books at auction.

(click on title for video for the ABC 5 news site)

This is a sad story.
A Minneapolis house fire last year that took a man's life, spared his comic book collection that could be worth $1 million.




Gary Dahlberg was killed in that fire last July. His collection contained classics like the first-ever Spiderman, which alone could be worth up to $50,000.



Firefighters said the house was cluttered. Some called Dahlberg a hoarder, but Gary was a collector.



His friend David Saari, who also collected comic books, says Dahlberg was very careful with his collection.



Heritage Auction Galleries will sell the comic books at auction. They say the collection could be worth $1 million. The money will go to Dahlberg's estate.
