February 6

a great comic and music lover has passed away. I think many will know him, even if it is not from Catawiki or Lastdodo. Anton Nieuwenhuizen has turned 73.

I have known him since 1974 when I ended up in Hans Matla's shop for the first time. We started talking about comics and also about music. He used to play in a band in The Hague and casually mentioned that there was sometimes a support act at a performance and then performed: Golden Earring, then under a different name. He was quite proud of it but never bragged about it.

We always went to all fairs together, in the beginning only to look and buy and not much later always with a stall (pje). We also went with a booth twice a year to the Rock Around the Jukebox in Rosmalen.

In recent years, however, his health has not been going so well and he has stopped.

I will miss him very much.

My condolences on this loss Morits.

Was he the one who also attended comic fairs with you? Then I can still somewhat remember him I think.

Good luck anyway.

Thank you Rene, I always stood with him at comic fairs (sometimes with an extended stand of 8 meters :-)), with great pleasure, he also knew much more about comics than I did, learned a lot from him

This is a more practical way to honor Arco's memory
Yes, buy there!

@lordernie, this thread was also about the death of Arco.

Thank you for your attention.
It does require a little explanation.

Arco has bequeathed his comic collection to Stripschrift, with the task of the editors to always strive for a higher quality. The (small) Foundation that publishes Stripschrift (Stichting Uitgeverij Stripstift) has asked me and editor Rik Sanders to join the board of Stripstift. There are people who thought that Arco and I had a fight, but nothing could be further from the truth. Arco and I often disagreed (and unfortunately Arco was usually right). I told him a few years ago that I didn't want to work with him anymore, because that was at the expense of our friendship and if I had to choose; than the friendship.
That's why I wanted to be less in the foreground then. But Arco was a friend for life and now for the good memories. I propose that we all get together at the first big fair after these strange times to drink a coke (with lemon, ice and a rammer) and yes, something else is also allowed. I pay the first round and the bitterballen.

Then also the explanation about this account ... I found it inappropriate to use the Arco userid itself. That would have been easier, but I don't want to scare anyone if Arco suddenly came "back to life". Unfortunately that is not going to happen and that is why I use AvO, which is just possible. All Secondary comic book literature goes into the Stripschrift archive as documentation material. But we will sell a large part of the regular comics. So if you have been looking for something special that Arco had for years, please contact us. We will probably also auction a number of special things through Catawiki.

And oh yes, Comics . The next issue will be released next week. This year we aim for 6 issues, a fresh issue every 2 months. And we will also continue with the Kappie series, Arco's favorite project (also because he made it with his friends Patrick Bremmers and Ton Schuringa).
And then I must also mention Teus de Kruif, Teus, Ton , Patrick, Rik and I have been cleaning up Arco's flat and cellar stalls for weeks. Here is Arco's great weakness: he was crazy about Gaston Lagaffe ... He made an attempt to make his enormous archive just as accessible as the archive of Gaston Flater. I say that Arco has won ...

@Willem,
Thank you, that explains why you suddenly disappeared from the picture at the time ...
Success and strength with the settlement of the estate

@AvO (Willem, Teus, Ton, Patrick, Rik)
Thank you for the explanation and a lot of strength in continuing Stripschrift. Arco watches from above, shaking with laughter, as you attempt to clean up his archive.

I was looking at the photos of the first day and it has improved a lot in the meantime, except for the stuff in the living room, we now know where everything is. But in the living room there are still many, many boxes that we all have to check to see if there are any important things in them.

And to be honest, it is nice work. We also have a lot of fun and nice memories come up every time. It would be even better if Arco were still there, that's the comment I miss the most.

A few days ago I received the sad news that my uncle Gert Faken has passed away. Since we had no real contact in recent years and I have moved several times, the contact has been watered down. Can you tell me more about my special Uncle Gert from the last years? Thanks in advance.
Kind regards Nanouk Faken
Ps Almost 21 years ago he drew a card with Guus flater and the marsupilami for the birth of my eldest daughter. His username on this platform was not his real name. I hope someone can tell me something so that I can honor my uncle in my own way.

@ Maarten-Smit,
The idea is actually to always make a link to the catalog so that everyone can easily enjoy the work of the deceased. So in this case:

How nice. I had these made in an edition of ten in 2014 as a result of a discussion on the forum.
