In 2014, Roy Thomas was writing the main essay for Taschen's 75 Years of Marvel. Taschen contacted me, Mike Vassallo, and Nick Caputo to work on the book and contribute the images from our original comics for the sections on the 1930s up to around 1977. Others had to do the years after that. We did the biographies and timeline, and helped select which pages or panels of art to use.
There are no 'traditional' scans here. They came to each of our houses with enormous equipment and used a powerful camera, focusing not through the lens manually, but on a computer. After the artwork was selected, it was placed as it would appear in the book, then sent to us as a PDF. We wrote the captions for it in Word on a separate 'page', and they were later added to the PDF, underneath or beside the pictures.
Note the picture where they have Spider-Man #1 set up. Their cover picture, from Avengers #4, is also from my collection, as is Hulk #1 on the rear.
