I was SO CLOSE to convincing the wife I should get some Ditko ASM original art...

Then she talked to our financial guy.   

I gave up on the idea of trying to score some DD Miller OA as it's beyond confusing what he did, Janson did, etc. 

Eyeing a DD color guide(s) painted by Lein Wein's wife. (She is a prolific colorer and much more then simply "his wife" just that her name escapes me st the moment). Trying to get my ducks lined up.

a few years back Clink had the Wolverine Miller cover up for auction. I seriously considered talking with my wife to get a mortgage to try and go for it.  I never asked.  Art should be fun, and while it can be an investment - it's important to feel comfortable with the budget. The Wolvie cover would have been way above my pay grade. I think it sold for $65k. Possibly a bargain by todays' standards?

Never ever consult with the wife before making a buying decision. 

Much easier to just do what you want to do and ask for forgiveness later.

You can always get another wife, but that cover....

She let me buy a really nice key book and I have no argument with her whatsoever
