Ditko deserves an Artist edition 0

[Tony D]

Considering the fact that Steve Ditko was an Objectivist who followed the tenets of Ayn Rand, I think it is unlikely that his artwork will be donated to anyone, His will, if he left one, would probably state what he wants done with his possessions but making a charitable contribution would not be in keeping with his beliefs.

David Mandel owns the complete book of ASM # 26 (plus several covers and the ASM # 7 splash, maybe more)

I wonder what David's thoughts are concerning an Artist edition hopefully he is in agreement. Issue 26 would be a great example of Ditko's work andI could see it selling well. Does anyone know David's forum name?

I just found this article on David Mandel and he is one of us however I don't know if he is a member of the forum or not.

On Felix's podcast, it sounds like David is a huge supporter of the Artists edition format, contributing to several in the past.

Now, where do I get tickets to tour the Mandel museum of comic art....

Thank you for the link I was able to find a great interview on Youtube were David discusses Ditko's issue 28 of Amazing Spider-man, what a fantastic piece to own and Marie Severn gets a mention. which is very interesting as she was the person rumoured to have given the Amazing fantasy pages to the library of Congress.
