  3. He doesn’t want anyone to know it’s him.
  4. The stories are so reprehensible, I simply cannot bring myself to repeat them.
  5. I’ve lost the element of surprise.
  6. I enjoyed it more when he was hanging from his feet.
  7. I can assure you, “Fresh-to-Market” is a real thing. My sales have proven time and again, “Fresh-to-Market” means something to a lot of collectors.
  8. But of course, you’ll have same dealers exclaiming that those pieces “fell through the cracks”. But….no.
  9. I remember having Byrne’s share of the Villamonte inked pages decades ago. They were much harder to sell than Austin inked pages.
  10. 100% sure Marvel cut it up and restructured the page. No collector would do something like that to art. Does not affect the price.
  11. Those are the same people who can’t afford to buy.
  12. My sales are not posted in the weekly sales on CAF. I prefer it that way. I just don’t see the purpose of displaying one’s sales. It’s not a contest. Besides, some of the sales data is incorrect in that dealers that might give a discount, or trade art is not reflected or noted in the weekly sales. Which to me is cheating. Nothing that anyone writes will make me think differently.
  13. I've just added several Frank Miller originals to the website. Some of these have never been offered before! Click Here to see what's new.

Always looking for consignments!! Best, Mitch Itkowitz Graphic Collectibles
  14. So, just the other day, I was offered a trade, that was probably the most lopsided offer ever. This collector wanted to trade me his “debatable” (by his own admission) first appearance of Killer Croc from Detective Comics #524 pg 3 for the Golden Age Jerry Robinson Batman/Joker page from Detective Comics #76……even trade. Once I pulled myself off the floor from laughing, I told him no. Besides the fact I don’t trade, I told him nobody in their right mind would trade a “supposed” first appearance of a lower 2nd tier villain for a Golden Age page of the top villain drawn by his creator. Talk about a lofty trade expected!
  15. I'm pleased to be able to bring you a true Golden Age rarity!Jerry Robinson - Detective Comics #76 pg.4This is a rare page featuring Batman and Robin fighting the Joker.What makes this rare? It's the first Joker story Jerry Robinson pencilled and inked that featured the Joker!. You almost never see Golden Age pages with Batman fighting the Joker.Jerry went on to pencil and ink 2 other Batman/Joker stories in Batman #28 & 37, but highly doubtful you'll ever find any pages.You have it all here! Batman and Robin fighting the Joker.Art is in very good condition, with small amounts of white-out on the art.From the Robinson Collection.Any questions? Please email me at mitkowitz@hvc.rr.com or call at 845-399-7312Thanks for looking.Best,Mitch ItkowitzGraphic Collectibles
  16. I honestly like that splash enough that I should have kept it. But sometimes life gets in the way.
  17. I owned the original splash page back in the 70s. My opinion? Wish I never sold it.
  18. I used to own this about 47 years ago. Can’t bring myself to tell what I paid for it. Something I never should have sold.
  19. Harold Gaze - New Zealand/ UK illustrator. 1925 illustration. Possibly from a book.
