Collector’s Paradise Winnetka

Collector's Paradise began in September 1994, when Edward Greenberg and Joseph Zelich bought an existing shop then called Little Angel's Comics. The Winnetka Avenue store is the chain's original location, and in 2009 it added a full-time gallery that has since shown and sold original art and limited prints.

The store takes part in the chain's subscription service: customers manage their pull lists online, there is no minimum number of titles, and a signed credit card authorization is needed to open a pull box. Local subscriptions are set up in person.

This West Valley location is also where Collector's Paradise buys collections; sellers are asked to get in touch for an appointment first. The chain hosts creator and publisher events almost weekly across its stores.
