Kirby Strange Tales 101 pages = $96K

Kirby xmen 4 Splash = 132K

Kirby FF 95 cover = 114K

 

Strange Tales was strong.

The other two are weak.  

The FF 95 cover is very weak - it sold for $95.5K at Hake's in 2013.  Think it got traded to a dealer who consigned it.  It was so low that I considered throwing in a last second bid.

Those 2 Strange Tales pages were AWESOME! Not too surprised at all on that one.

I know it is an important piece.. but visually it is not very interesting. But I guess three people love X-23!

With this kind of art I guess I am totally out of the loop, I had really no idea what this is about.

I was hoping the Marvel Tales cover would go under the radar and not many bidders would recognize the Spider-man figures as one of the most often used images in Spidey merchandising.  

I think expecting one of the most often used images in Spidey merchandising to go under the radar is an oxymoron xD

Yeah.  If I was the consignor I would've insisted on it being mentioned.   I see that they did correct the original attributions to Don Heck.  It struck me as possible but unlikely and no slight meant to Heck but I didn't see any signs of him in the piece and didn't fully understand why anybody would've thought so in the first place.

Why Kinda? They said it was all romita when auctioning

Interesting...they changed the description.  Was: Romita layouts, finishes by Heck, and inks by Esposito, so I totally ignored it.  

now I see that it was corrected at a later date, listing Romita Sr as the sole artist.

Very frustrating cause had I known, I would have bid
