Lee B. Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) Good evening! I have posted a 24-page, 1989 catalog of Batman and Batman-related art to www.comicartads.com. This catalog includes some great covers, a beautiful Alex Toth Black Canary story currently in the collection of LB Jeffries, my favorite (complete) Dillin JLA story, and a series of drawings of Robin being lowered into chocolate syrup. Truly, this catalog has it all, and you can see it here: http://www.comicartads.com/content/batman-catalog-1989#overlay-context=content/page-17-4 And if anyone knows the whereabouts of that JLA #130 story, please let me know! Cheers, Lee Edited May 23, 2017 by Lee B. Norrin_Radd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buyatari Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Very interesting. I would have thought that the comic strips would have been cheaper back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESeffinga Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 An attempt to cash in on the whole Burton movie release that year, as was everyone with anything Batman to sell. Thanks for posting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CartoonFanboy Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) As always, thanks for taking the time to scan these and make them available for the rest of us. Very cool stuff. Edited May 23, 2017 by CartoonFanboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B. Posted May 24, 2017 Author Share Posted May 24, 2017 Thanks for the kind words folks! I thought a lot of the prices were fairly aggressive for 1989. It was an impressive, focused art offering for the time, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catwoman_Fan Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I wonder how many got burnt by paying 35k for a Bob Kane original through circle gallery? Yikes!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing compared to how many got burnt by overgraded and poorly "restored" books pre-CGC. I'm thinking (if any sold at all) much of those 35k sales were made to comic dealers using those same ill-gotten gains, so easy come easy go? Except for Wall St types that might buy something like that for their kid as a lark...Joe Schmoe doesn't have that kind of money today and sure didn't nearly 30 years ago!
