I have heard some things second-hand, but don't want to spread potential misinformation as obviously this is something that should be stated precisely.

ESeffinga Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Indeed. It's why I would love for Heritage to release some kind of public rebuff, or at least let their customers know what their current stance is, until things change necessarily, one way or the other. But I get why we've not heard anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talked to two consignors recently who said that their Kirby art was turned away at CLink. Make that three. I offered to consign a Bronze Age Kirby page to Clink at the last NJ Comic Con which they did not want.I walked across the room to Comic Connect and they took the same page.I had a brief discussion with the Comic Connect staff concerning the Kirby situation ,which they were fully aware of , but they were not deterred.I don't know what this means but I was dissapointed with Clink as I had dealt with them (buying and selling Kirby art ) in the past. I would be interested if any of the winners of Kirby art from the recent Heritage auction have heard anything out of the norm from Heritage or the Kirby estate.
