Gibiteca Antonio Gobbo
Gobbo was an avid collector of comic books for much of his life, from childhood, around age 7, until in his 50s. His collection reached a peak or around 4,800 items, and so he decided to create the "Biblioteca Nacional de Histórias em Quadrinhos", which existed between 1987 and 1992 in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. In 1992, he decided to donate its entire collection to Belo Horizonte's public library. His collection was named as "Gibiteca Antonio Gobbo".
