Engebretsen Collection

The Engebretsen Collection comprises about 350 volumes, mostly Marvel comics dating from the 1960s. It was donated to the college in 2014 from the Glenn and Sara Engebretsen Trust, There are some additional books in the collection and some stand-out volumes, but in general the collection is notable for its representation of the early "Marvel Age of Comics." For example, it includes issues of Spider-Man and Strange Tales by Steve Ditko, Tales of Suspense, Journey into Mystery, Captain America, The X-Men and The Avengers by Jack Kirby, and Jim Steranko's Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD. It includes issues of the art magazine Witzend, Steranko's two-volume history of comics, and a Krazy Kat collection.
