Even though I have been selling off and on for twenty years, my collecting has continued apace. I have sold many pricier pieces to help out my heirs, but I will likely die with a few pieces that will have instructions and provenance, estimates, etc. to help the family.

We also have a good local auction house who uses Live Auctioneers for halfway decent material, though comic art is a little too speci

Bronty said..."I suppose the counterpoint is that some of this is me waving my cane in the air as it’s all affordable from wages if you buy lower condition and or less desirable material. But the extremes are sooo extreme now that it’s hard to focus on much else." And their comment is right on the mark. I maintain a "focus" on the extremes to stay current on trends for the handful of high-end pieces I have chosen to keep. The interesting part of "lower condition or less desirable" within the realm of original comic art is that condition is not such a factor, so the fun of collect

I bought a page from a dealer's site which had been posted ten years ago. I feared the worst in terms of lost, delayed, already sold or removed from inventory, price changed, etc. Result.......shipped the next day! YAY! Thanks to Anthony. To celebrate, and in anticipation, I created an oversized reference print. Happy New Year, David S. Albright

A Single Collector Negotiates To Buy All King In Black Original Art
aokartman replied to Ares's topic in Original Comic Art
Same as the differences between virtual galleries and brick and mortar galleries, I guess. I was just referencing the use of the word museum in the context of Felix original remark and the explosion of the internet. Did you know you can create your own gallery right here on the CGC boards? David -
A Single Collector Negotiates To Buy All King In Black Original Art
aokartman replied to Ares's topic in Original Comic Art
Virtual museums exist on the internet, and may even be a more common use of the term, as time goes by, than brick and mortar usage. The Sleepwalker cover art I sold went to such a museum dedicated to the Sleepwalker character, and that collection is curated on Instagram. Best, David -
