Wrightson and Kirby Original Art Update

[heartened]

Hi Gene,

 

Oh THAT piece of important Silver Age art. Right, yeah, I'm picking that one up NEXT week

 

Just kidding, of course!

 

See you tomorrow!

Hi Steve,

 

I knew you'd appreciate it. Thanks for the kind words. I'm lucky to have found it, and even luckier to have been able to afford it (right place, right time). Tax refunds don't hurt, either!

 

If you're ever in NYC, you're welcome to see it in person someday. These early splash pages, being large art, are really spectacular (as you know).

 

All the best,

 

Hi Hari,

 

I would love to see it in person. I was hoping to come to NYC for the Heritage Auction but have meetings this week. But I will happily take you up on the offer in the future!

 

I think I'm going to print out this scan and admire it!

Hi Steve,

 

You're welcome anytime. Just let me know.

I am humbled by those 2 pieces. Pop culture artifacts of the highest order.

 

Congrats on their ownership.

Hari -

 

Congrats on some more unbelievable pieces.

 

FF#5!!!!!

 

I don't even know what to say....You own pieces from every significant (to me) comic book I can think of!!! Miracleman cover, Killing Joke art, and now Doom's 1st app.

 

I bow before you!

Thanks for the kind words. I guess I collect differently than most, but I try to get a nice example by my favorite artists doing what they're known for. I also try to get a nice example from characters and storylines that I'm particularly fond of. So, that makes for real variety in a collection. That's why you see Alan Davis Miracleman in the same collection as Kirby FF/Doom, and Edward Gorey in the same collection as Eastman's TMNT. There is some method to the madness!

Yes! And they always seem to be from the stories I am fond of!

 

Maybe one day I'll get to see your fantastic collection.
